    Turn the ignition off.

    Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

    Turn the ignition on.

    Measure the voltage of the (C105) HVAC MUX Control circuit.

    Is the voltage below 4.8 volts? 

    Yes  

    1. Go To step  2).

    No 

    1. Replace the A/C Heater Control in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/FRONT CONTROL MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING) .
  2. 2)  CHECK (C105) HVAC MUX CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO GROUND

    Turn the ignition off.

    Disconnect the Instrument Cluster C2 harness connector.

    Measure the resistance of the (C105) HVAC MUX Control circuit between ground and the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

    Is the resistance below 10K ohms? 

    Yes 

    1. Repair the (C105) HVAC MUX Control circuit for a short to ground.
    2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/FRONT CONTROL MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING) .

    No 

    1. Go To step  3).
  3. 3)  CHECK (C105) HVAC MUX CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN

    Measure the resistance of the (C105) HVAC MUX Control circuit between the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector and the Instrument Cluster C2 harness connector.

    Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms? 

    Yes 

    1. Replace the Instrument Cluster (CCN) in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/FRONT CONTROL MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING) .

    No 

    1. Repair the (C105) HVAC MUX Control circuit for an open.
    2. Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. (Refer to ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES/FRONT CONTROL MODULE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING) .
