Coil Resistance Test

  1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
  2. Disconnect the wire harness connector from the A/C clutch coil connector.
  3. Use an ohmmeter and Back Probe Tool 6801, measure the resistance of the A/C clutch coil at the coil connector terminals.
  4. See the A/C Clutch Coil Specifications chart for the acceptable A/C clutch coil resistance. Specifications apply for a work area temperature of 21° C (70° F).
    1. If the A/C clutch coil reading is below specifications, the coil is shorted and must be replaced.
    2. If the A/C clutch coil reading is above specifications, the coil is open and must be replaced.
