Coil Resistance Test

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Dodge Durango. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable. If equipped with an Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS), disconnect the IBS connector first before disconnecting the negative battery cable.
  2. Disconnect the wire harness connector from the A/C clutch coil connector.
  3. Use an ohm meter and Back Probe Tool (special tool #6801, Terminal Probe) and measure the resistance of the A/C clutch coil at the coil connector terminals.
  4. See A/C CLUTCH COIL SPECIFICATIONS  for 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.
