REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR

Component Description

INFOID:0000000009886930

The refrigerant pressure sensor is installed at the condenser of the

air conditioner system. The sensor uses an electrostatic volume

pressure transducer to convert refrigerant pressure to voltage. The

voltage signal is sent to ECM.

Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000009886931

1.

CHECK REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR OVERALL FUNCTION

1. Start engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.

2. Turn A/C switch and blower fan switch ON.

3. Check voltage between ECM terminal 70 and ground with CON-

SULT or tester.

OK or NG

OK

>> INSPECTION END

NG

>> GO TO 2.

2.

CHECK GROUND CONNECTIONS

1. Turn A/C switch and blower fan switch OFF.

2. Turn ignition switch OFF.

3. Loosen and retighten three ground screws on the body.

REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR

Refer to 

EC-154, "Ground Inspection"

.

OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 3.

NG

>> Repair or replace ground connections.

3.

CHECK REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT

1. Disconnect refrigerant pressure sensor harness connector.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Check voltage between refrigerant pressure sensor terminal 1

and ground with CONSULT or tester.

OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 5.

NG

>> GO TO 4.

4.

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART

Check the following.

• Harness connectors E5, F14

• Harness for open or short between ECM and refrigerant pressure sensor

>> Repair harness or connectors.

5.

CHECK REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT

1. Turn ignition switch OFF.

2. Disconnect ECM harness connector.

3. Check harness continuity between refrigerant pressure sensor terminal 3 and ECM terminal 67.

Refer to Wiring Diagram.

4. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 7.

NG

>> GO TO 6.

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART

Check the following.

• Harness connectors E5, F14

• Harness for open or short between ECM and refrigerant pressure sensor

>> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

7.

CHECK REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR INPUT SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN AND SHORT

1. Check harness continuity between ECM terminal 70 and refrigerant pressure sensor terminal 2.

Refer to Wiring Diagram.

2. Also check harness for short to ground and short to power.
OK or NG

OK

>> GO TO 9.

NG

>> GO TO 8.

8.

DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PART

Check the following.

• Harness connectors E5, F14

• Harness for open or short between ECM and refrigerant pressure sensor

>> Repair open circuit or short to ground or short to power in harness or connectors.

9.

CHECK INTERMITTENT INCIDENT

Refer to 

GI-39, "How to Check Terminal"

 and 

GI-42, "Intermittent Incident"

.

OK or NG

OK

>> Replace refrigerant pressure sensor.

NG

>> Repair or replace. 

Continuity should exist.
