6.3 3 + 12 Current measurement via A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280
  • Ignition switched on
  • Greater than 0.5 A and less than 1.5 A
  • Use wiring diagram to locate and eliminate short to Ground (GND) or open circuit in wiring between A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280 and operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255
  • A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280 defective, replace compressor → Refrigerant Circuit Components, Replacing
NOTE:
  • During operation, the output of the compressor is influenced via the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280.
  • The operating and display module, Climatronic Control Module J255 regulates the current flowing via the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve N280 and thus the compressor output (reading measuring value block, display group "001") → Read Measuring Value Block (function 08) .
