      Replace the component:KR29 A/C Compressor Clutch Relay

    • Go to next step: If between 70 and 110 ohms 
  4. Test for infinite resistance between the test points:
    • Component terminal 30 & 85
    • Component terminal 30 & 86
    • Component terminal 30 & 87
    • Component terminal 85 & 87
    • If less than infinite resistance 

      Replace the component:KR29 A/C Compressor Clutch Relay

  5. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points:Component terminal 86 & 12 V

    Connect a jumper wire between the test points:Component terminal 85 & Ground

  6. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points:Component terminal 30 & 87
    • If 2 ohms or greater 

      Replace the component:KR29 A/C Compressor Clutch Relay
