Test Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Chevrolet Corvette. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.

  1. 3:  Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the high voltage range.
  2. 4:  Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the low voltage range. If the fuse in the jumper opens when you perform this test, the signal circuit is shorted to voltage.

  1. Install a scan tool.
  2. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  3. With a scan tool, observe the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter in the Heating and Air Conditioning data list.
Does the scan tool indicate that the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter is within the specified range?
0.09-4.90 V Go to Diagnostic Aids Go to Step 3 
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Disconnect the appropriate air temperature sensor.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  4. With a scan tool, observe the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter.
Does the scan tool indicate that the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter is more than the specified value?
4.90 V Go to Step 4  Go to Step 5 
  1. Turn OFF the ignition.
  2. Connect a 3 amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit of the appropriate air temperature sensor and the low reference circuit of the appropriate air temperature sensor.
  3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
  4. With a scan tool, observe the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter.
Does the scan tool indicate that the appropriate Temp Sensor parameter is less than the specified value?
0.09 V Go to Step 8  Go to Step 6 
5 Test the signal circuit of the appropriate air temperature sensor 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 12  Go to Step 9 
6 Test the signal circuit of the appropriate air temperature sensor for a short to voltage, a high resistance, or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 7 
7 Test the low reference circuit of the appropriate air temperature sensor for a high resistance or an open. Refer to Circuit Testing and Wiring Repairs in Wiring Systems.
Did you find and correct the condition?
- Go to Step 12  Go to Step 9 
8 Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the appropriate air temperature sensor. 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 12  Go to Step 10 
9 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 12  Go to Step 11 
10 Replace the appropriate air temperature sensor. Refer to Ambient Air Temperature Sensor Replacement  or Inside Air Temperature Sensor Replacement .
Did you complete the replacement?
- Go to Step 12  -
