  Yes
  - Go to step 9
  No
  - Repair the (C18) A/C Pressure Transducer Signal circuit for an open circuit or high resistance.
  - Perform the Body Verification Test. Refer to DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) - Standard Procedure .
A/C PRESSURE TRANSDUCER
1. Turn the ignition off.
2. Connect the Totally Integrated Power (TIPM) harness connector.
3. Turn the ignition on.
4. With the scan tool, read the A/C Pressure Transducer signal voltage.
  NOTE: The sensor voltage should be approximately 5.0 volts (plus or minus.1 volt) with the connector disconnected.
  
  Does the scan tool display the voltage as described above?
  
  Yes
