STEP 1. Using scan tool MB991958, check actuator test 
item 01, item 02, item 03 and item 04: Blower motor.

CAUTION

To prevent damage to scan tool MB991958, always turn the 
ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before con-
necting or disconnecting scan tool MB991958.
Carry out the actuator test.
Item 01, 02, 03 and 04: Blower motor
Q: Do the check results show "Stop" (01 activated), "low 

speed" (02 activated), "medium speed" (03 activated), 
and "high speed" (04 activated)?
YES :  Go to Step 25.
NO :   Go to Step 2.

STEP 2. Measure the voltage at blower motor connector 
D-113.

(1) Disconnect blower motor connector D-113, and measure 

the voltage at the harness side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.
(3) Turn the blower switch to the "ON" position.

(4) Measure the voltage between terminal 1 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts 

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Does the measured voltage correspond with this range?

YES :  Go to Step 14.
NO :   Go to Step 3.

STEP 3. Check the front blower relay continuity.

Follow the table below to check the front blower relay for conti-
nuity.

Q: Is the front blower relay continuity in good condition?

YES : Go to Step 4.
NO :  Replace the front blower relay. The blower motor 

should operate normally.

STEP 4. Measure the voltage at front blower relay 
connector D-218.

(1) Disconnect front blower relay connector D-218, and 

measure the voltage at the junction block side.

(2) Turn the ignition switch to the "ON" position.

(3) Measure the voltage between terminal 3 and ground.

• The measured value should be approximately 12 volts 

(battery positive voltage).

Q: Does the measured voltage correspond with this range?

YES :  Go to Step 7.
NO :   Go to Step 5.

STEP 5. Check front blower relay connector D-218 for 
damage.

Q: Is front blower relay connector D-218 in good 

condition?
YES : Go to Step 6.
NO :  Repair or replace the connector. Refer to GROUP 

00E, Harness Connector Inspection 

P.00E-2

. The 

blower motor should operate normally.

STEP 6. Check the wiring harness between front blower 
relay connector D-218 (terminal 3) and the ignition switch 
(IG2).

NOTE: Also check junction block connector D-208. If junction 
block connector D-208 is damaged, repair or replace the con-
nector as described in GROUP 00E, Harness Connector 
Inspection 

P.00E-2

.

Q: Is the wiring harness between front blower relay 

connector C-218 (terminal 3) and the ignition switch 
(IG2) in good condition?
YES : The front blower motor should operate normally.
NO :  Repair the wiring harness. The blower motor should 

operate normally.
