Diagnostic Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Chrysler PT Cruiser. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. 1)  A/C CLUTCH OPERATION 

    Ignition on, engine not running.

    With a scan tool in the Powertrain Actuators, actuate the A/C Clutch.

    Is the A/C Clutch operating? 

    Yes 

    1. Refer to the INTERMITTENT CONDITION diagnostic procedure.
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .

    No 

    1. Go To  2).
  2. 2)  A/C CLUTCH CONTROL OPERATION FROM THE TIPM

    Turn the ignition off.

    Disconnect the TIPM C1 harness connector.

    Turn the ignition on.

    Using the scan tool in the Powertrain Actuators, actuate the A/C Clutch.

    With a 12-volt test light connected to ground, probe the A/C Clutch Control circuit in the TIPM C1 harness connector.

    Does the test light illuminate brightly and flash on and off? 

    Yes 

      NOTE: Before continuing, check the TIPM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.
    1. If OK, replace the TIPM in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .

    No 

    1. Go To  3).
  3. 3)  (C28) A/C CLUTCH CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO BATTERY VOLTAGE

    Stop the A/C Clutch actuation.

    Turn the ignition off.

    Disconnect the PCM harness connector.

    Turn the ignition on.

    Measure the voltage of the (C28) A/C Clutch Control circuit at the TIPM C1 harness connector.

    Does the voltmeter indicate voltage present? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the short to voltage in the (C28) A/C Clutch Control circuit.
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .

    No 

    1. Go To  4).
  4. 4)  (C28) A/C CLUTCH CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN

    Turn the ignition off.

    Measure the resistance of the (C28) A/C Clutch Control circuit from the TIPM C1 harness connector and the PCM harness connector.

    Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms? 

    Yes 

    1. Go To  5).

    No 

    1. Repair the open in the (C28) A/C Clutch Control circuit.
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .
  5. 5)  PCM 
    NOTE: Before continuing, check the PCM harness connector terminals for corrosion, damage, or terminal push out. Repair as necessary.

    Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wire harness and connectors. Pay particular attention to all Power and Ground circuits.

    Were there any problems found? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair as necessary.
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .

    No 

    1. Replace and program the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the Service Information. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - PCM/ECM/SKREEM PROGRAMMING) .
    2. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to STANDARD PROCEDURE - POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST) .
