Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Suzuki XL7. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the ambient air temp sensor harness connector at the ambient air temp sensor terminal A.
- Test for less than 1.0 Ω of resistance between the low reference circuit terminal B and ground.
- If greater than the specified value, test the low reference circuit for an open / high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.
- Ignition ON, test for 5 volts between the low reference circuit terminal B and the 5-volt reference signal terminal A.
- If not the specified voltage, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.
- If all circuits test normal, replace the ambient air temperature sensor.
