1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, erase HVAC DTCs.
5. Turn the ignition off, wait 10 seconds, and turn the ignition on.
6. With the scan tool, read HVAC DTCs.
  Does the scan tool display: B1031-EVAPORATOR FIN TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW?
  
  Yes
  - Go To 2
  No
  - Replace the Evaporator Temperature Sensor in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure

1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C2 harness connector.
3. Measure the resistance of the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit between ground and the A/C Heater Control C2 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 10k ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit for a short to ground.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure
  No
  - Go to step 3
CHECK (C21) EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO (C121) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT

1. Measure the resistance between the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit and the (C121) Sensor Ground circuit in the A/C Heater Control C2 harness connector.
  Is the resistance below 10k ohms?
  
  Yes
  - Repair the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit for a short to the (C121) Sensor Ground circuit.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure
  No
  - Replace the A/C Heater Control in accordance with the Service Information.
  - Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure
