Gauge Control Module Input Test

NOTE:
  • Before testing, DO THE GAUGE CONTROL MODULE SELF-DIAGNOSTIC FUNCTION , and make sure the B-CAN communication lines are OK.
  • Before testing, make sure the No. A29 (10 A) fuse in the under-hood fuse/relay box is OK.
  • Before testing, make sure the No. B5 (10 A) fuse in the under-dash fuse/relay box is OK.
  1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
  2. Disconnect the gauge control module 32P connector  See GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION  or  REWRITING THE ODO DATA AND TRANSFERRING THE MAINTENANCE MINDER™ DATA TO A NEW GAUGE CONTROL MODULE.

  3. Inspect the connector and socket terminals to be sure they are all making good contact:
    • If the terminals are bent, loose, or corroded, repair them as necessary, and recheck the system.
    • If the terminals are OK, go to step 4.
  4. With the connector still disconnected, do the following input tests:
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, go to step 5.

      5(1) GRY Disconnect the outside air temperature sensor 2P connector Check for continuity between terminal No. 5 and outside air temperature sensor 2P connector terminal No. 2: There should be continuity. An open or high resistance in the wire
      Check for continuity between terminal No. 5 and body ground:
      There should be no continuity.      		 A short to ground in the wire
      6(1) PNK Disconnect the outside air temperature sensor 2P connector Check for continuity between terminal No. 6 and outside air temperature sensor 2P connector terminal No. 1: There should be continuity. An open or high resistance in the wire
      Check for continuity between terminal No. 6 and body ground:
      There should be no continuity.      		 A short to ground in the wire
      (1) With manual A/C and outside air temperature indication function
  5. Reconnect the connector to the gauge control module, and do the following input tests:
    • If any test indicates a problem, find and correct the cause, then recheck the system.
    • If all the input tests prove OK, replace the gauge control module  See GAUGE CONTROL MODULE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION  or  REWRITING THE ODO DATA AND TRANSFERRING THE MAINTENANCE MINDER™ DATA TO A NEW GAUGE CONTROL MODULE.
