|
The blower and the heater controls and the A/C system do not work |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Blown fuse No. B9 (10 A) in the under-dash fuse/relay box |
|
|
Poor ground at G505 |
|
|
Poor or loose connections at the terminals | |
|
The A/C compressor clutch and the cooling fan are inoperative, but the blower and heater controls work |
Probable cause: A/C pressure sensor circuit malfunction or evaporator temperature sensor circuit malfunction
Troubleshoot the A/C pressure sensor circuit:
NOTE: The A/C pressure sensor circuit can malfunction without setting a DTC |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Faulty evaporator temperature sensor |
|
|
Poor or loose connections at the terminals | |
|
The A/C compressor clutch does not engage, but the cooling fan operate, and the blower and heater controls work |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Blown fuse No. A23 (10 A) in the under-hood fuse/relay box |
|
|
|
|
|
Poor or loose connections at the terminals | |
|
Blower fan runs slower than expected in cold weather (when in AUTO mode)
NOTE: It is normal for the blower fan to run slowly until the coolant temperature rises when in AUTO mode |
Probable cause: Engine coolant temperature (ECT) circuit malfunction
Troubleshoot the ECT sensor circuit:
|
|
USA and Canada models |
|
|
|
|
Mexico models |
|
| |
|
|
The A/C compressor clutch cycles rapidly on and off |
Probable cause:
|
|
A/C system is overcharged (Excessive pressure on high side of system causing pressure sensor to turn A/C compressor off) |
|
|
Cooling fan inoperative |
|
|
Low idle speed |
|
|
Evaporator temperature sensor malfunction
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Faulty A/C pressure sensor | |
|
The A/C compressor clutch does not disengage when the A/C switch is off |
Probable cause: The A/C compressor clutch circuit is on (energized) continuously, shorted to ground, stuck A/C compressor clutch relay, or the A/C compressor clutch is mechanically jammed
|
The A/C compressor relief valve. If it has vented refrigerant to the atmosphere, correct the problem with the A/C compressor clutch or the A/C compressor clutch circuit, then replace the A/C compressor relief valve |
|
The A/C compressor relief valve has vented refrigerant
NOTE: This indicates the A/C system high side pressure was high |
Probable cause: A high-side restriction, the cooling fan is inoperative, or the A/C compressor clutch is not disengaging
|
|
If the fans and A/C compressor clutch operate normally, feel the lines for restrictions
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Driver's and passenger's side vent temperatures vary by more than 20 °F (11 °C) |
Probable cause:
|
|
The air mix doors are malfunctioning
Do the following troubleshooting: |
|
|
|
|
Low refrigerant charge | |
|
|
|
|
|
Poor or loose connections at the terminals | |
|
HDS does not communicate with the climate control unit or the vehicle |
|
|
|
A/C information does not display on the center display unit, but the blower, heater and A/C system controls work (climate control panel without display) |
Probable cause: Communication malfunction between the audio unit*1 or the audio-navigation unit*2 and the climate control unit
Check the B-CAN line between the audio unit*1 or the audio-navigation unit*2 and the climate control unit |
|
|
Insufficient heating |
|
1. |
|
|
2. |
|
|
3. |
Check the engine coolant temperature (ECT) during normal operation with the HDS |
|
4. |
Check the heater core inlet hose temperature: |
|
|
|
If it is COLD, check for restrictions in the hose, a damaged or leaking thermostat, or a damaged or leaking water pump |
|
|
|
|
|
5. |
Check the operation of the air mix doors: |
|
|
|
6. |
Check the blower motor unit for obstructions |
|
7. |
Check for air leaks around the ducts and vents | |
