Schematic Reference: HVAC Schematics Connector End View Reference: HVAC Connector End Views DEFINITION: The A/C compressor clutch will not disengage when an A/C request has not been made and a powertrain DTC has not been set. | ||||
1 | Did you perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle? | -- | Go to Step 2 | Go to Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle in Vehicle DTC Information |
2 |
Does the A/C compressor operate? | -- | Go to Step 3 | Go to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections in Wiring Systems |
3 | With a scan tool, observe the A/C request signal parameter in the Powertrain data list. Does the scan tool indicate that the A/C request signal parameter is YES? | -- | Go to Step 4 | Go to Step 6 |
4 | Test the A/C request signal circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 5 |
5 |
Does the scan tool indicate that the A/C request signal parameter is YES? | -- | Go to Step 13 | Go to Step 12 |
6 | With a scan tool, command the A/C compressor clutch relay ON and OFF. Does the A/C compressor clutch relay turn ON and OFF with each command? | -- | Go to Step 7 | Go to Step 9 |
7 | Remove the A/C compressor clutch relay. Is the A/C compressor ON? | -- | Go to Step 10 | Go to Step 8 |
8 | Measure the resistance between the switch side A/C compressor clutch relay terminals. Does the resistance measurement equal the specified value? | ∞ | Go to Step 9 | Go to Step 11 |
9 | Test the A/C clutch relay control circuit for a short to ground. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 13 |
10 | Test the A/C compressor clutch supply voltage circuit for a short to voltage. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 15 |
11 | Inspect for poor connections at the A/C compressor clutch relay. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 14 |
12 | Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the HVAC control module. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 16 |
13 | Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the powertrain control module (PCM) or engine control module (ECM). Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems. Did you find and correct the condition? | -- | Go to Step 18 | Go to Step 17 |
14 | Replace the A/C compressor clutch relay. Refer to Compressor Relay Replacement in Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 18 | -- |
15 | Replace the A/C compressor clutch. Refer to Air Conditioning Compressor Replacement in Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 18 | -- |
16 | Replace the HVAC control module. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 18 | -- |
17 | Replace the PCM/ECM. Refer to Control Module References in Computer/Integrating Systems for replacement, setup, and programming. Did you complete the replacement? | -- | Go to Step 18 | -- |
18 | Operate the system in order to verify the repair. Did you correct the condition? | -- | System OK | Go to Step 3 |
