:? Go to step 5.

Repair the harness 
between auto A/C 
control module and 
in-vehicle sensor.

5

CHECK HARNESS BETWEEN AUTO A/C 
CONTROL MODULE AND IN-VEHICLE SEN-
SOR.

auto A/C control module and in-vehicle sensor.

Connector & terminal

(i55) No. 1 — (B282) No. 27:

Is the resistance less than 1 

:? Go to step 6.

Repair the harness 
between auto A/C 
control module and 
in-vehicle sensor.

6

CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Check poor contact of auto A/C control module 
connector.

Is there poor contact in connec-
tor?

Repair the connec-
tor.

Replace the auto 
A/C control mod-
ule.

Step

Check

Yes

No

1

CHECK EVAPORATOR SENSOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to OFF.
2) Remove the glove box.
3) Disconnect the connector from evaporator 
sensor.
4) Measure the resistance between connector 
terminals of the evaporator sensor.

Terminals

No. 1 — No. 2:

Is the resistance approximately 
3.3 k

: at 20°C (68°F) ?

Go to step 2.

Replace the evap-
orator sensor.

2

CHECK INPUT SIGNAL FOR EVAPORATOR 
SENSOR.
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON.
2) Measure the voltage between connector 
(B88) terminal and chassis ground.

Connector & terminal

(B88) No. 1 (+) — No. 2 (–):

Is the voltage approx. 5 V?

Go to step 6.

Diagnostic Procedure for Sensors

HVAC SYSTEM (AUTO A/C) (DIAGNOSTICS)

D: SUNLOAD SENSOR

TROUBLE SYMPTOM:
• Sensor identifies that sunlight is at maximum. Then, A/C system is controlled to COOL side.
• Sensor identifies that sunlight is at minimum. Then, A/C system is controlled to HOT side.

NOTE:
When the sunload sensor check is performed indoors or in the shade, it could be diagnosed as having an
open circuit. Always check the sunload sensor with the sun shining on it.
