Circuit/System Verification
NOTE:
Check for bulletins before proceeding.
- Ignition ON.
- Verify every applicable scan tool Switch parameter changes when pressing the appropriate switch on the A26 HVAC Controls.
- If any parameter does not change
Replace the A26 HVAC Controls.

- If any parameter does not change
- Verify the blower motor operates properly with the blower motor switch in each speed position.
- If the blower motor does not operate in each speed position
Refer to DTC B0193 .
- If the blower motor operates properly in each speed position
- If the blower motor does not operate in each speed position
- Verify the HVAC doors listed below move when pressing the appropriate switch.
- Driver Temperature
- Passenger Temperature
- Mode
- Recirculation
- Air Inlet
- If any HVAC door does not move
- If all HVAC doors move
- Install the J43600 ACR Air Conditioning Service Center.
- Verify the high side pressure reading on the Air Conditioning Service Center is within 10% of the scan tool ECM A/C High Side Pressure Sensor parameter.
- If the reading is not within 10%
Refer to DTC P0532 or P0533 .
- If the reading is within 10%
- If the reading is not within 10%
- Verify the A/C High Side Pressure Sensor parameter is between 269-2929 kPa (39-425 psi).
- If the reading is not between 269-2929 kPa (39-425 psi)
- If the reading is between 269-2929 kPa (39-425 psi)
- Verify the scan tool parameters listed below are within 10% of ambient temperature.
- Lower Left Duct Air Temperature Sensor
- Upper Left Duct Air Temperature Sensor
- Lower Right Duct Air Temperature Sensor
- Upper Right Duct Air Temperature Sensor
- A/C Evaporator Temperature Sensor
- If not within 10% of ambient temperature
Refer to DTC B0173, B0178, B0509, B0514 or B3933 .
- If within 10% of ambient temperature
- Verify the scan tool parameters listed below are within 10% of actual conditions.
- Passenger Compartment Humidity
- Passenger Compartment Humidity Sensor Temperature
- Passenger Compartment Windshield Temperature
- If not within 10% of actual conditions
Refer to DTC B018A, B048C, B048F, or B1395 .
- If within 10% of actual conditions
- Engine ON, A/C system ON.
- Verify cool air flows from the ducts with the temperature control in the coldest position.
- If the air is not cool
- Verify the Q2 A/C Compressor Clutch is engaged.
- If the Q2 A/C Compressor Clutch is not engaged, refer to Air Conditioning Compressor Malfunction .
- If the Q2 A/C Compressor Clutch is engaged, refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Performance Test , and DTC B393B .
- If the air is cool
- Verify warm air flows from the ducts with the temperature control in the warmest position.
- If the air is not warm
Refer to Heating Performance Diagnostic .
- If the air is warm
- If the air is not warm
- Engine OFF, ignition ON.
- Verify the scan tool Sunload parameter changes while covering the B10B Ambient Light/Sunload Sensor with a shop towel and changes when shining a bright light on it.
- If the Sunload parameter does not change
Refer to DTC B0163 (UE1) .
- If the Sunload parameter changes
- If the Sunload parameter does not change
- Verify the actual inside air temperature, using a thermometer, is less than 3°C (5°F) difference from the scan tool Inside Passenger Compartment Air Temp. Sensor parameter.
- If greater than a 3°C (5°F) difference
Refer to DTC B0163 (UE1) .
- If less than a 3°C (5°F) difference
- If greater than a 3°C (5°F) difference
- Verify the vehicle is equipped with RPO code HP6.
- If the vehicle is not equipped with RPO code HP6.
Refer to step 18.
- If the vehicle is equipped with RPO code HP6.
- If the vehicle is not equipped with RPO code HP6.
- Verify the G17 Heater Coolant Pump turns On and Off when commanded with a scan tool.
- If the G17 Heater Coolant Pump does not turn On and Off
Refer to DTC B269A, B269C, or B269D .
- If the G17 Heater Coolant Pump does turn On and Off
- If the G17 Heater Coolant Pump does not turn On and Off
- All OK.
