Diagnostic Test

  1. CHECK FOR AN ACTIVE DTC 
    1. With the scan tool, read DTCs and record on the repair order.
    2. Record the Environmental Data.
    3. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
    4. Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
    5. With the scan tool, read HVAC Module DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      • Go To  2

      No 

  2. REPLACE THE POSITIVE TEMPERATURE COEFFICIENT (PTC) 2 RELAY WITH A KNOWN GOOD RELAY AND CHECK FOR THE DTC TO RETURN 
    1. Replace the PTC 2 Relay in accordance with the Service Information.
    2. Turn the ignition on.
    3. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
    4. Using the Environmental Data and When Monitored conditions, operate the vehicle within the conditions that set the DTC.
    5. With the scan tool, read DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      • Go To  3

      No 

      • Replacing the PTC 2 Relay corrected the condition.
      • Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
  3. CHECK THE (C362) CABIN HEATER 2 RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Disconnect the HVAC Module harness connector.
    3. Remove the Cabin Heater 1 Relay from the Power Distribution Center.
    4. Turn the ignition on.
    5. Measure voltage on the (C362) Cabin Heater 2 Relay Control circuit.

      Is there any voltage present?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (C362) Cabin Heater 2 Relay Control circuit for a short to voltage.
      • Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  4
  4. CHECK THE (C362) CABIN HEATER 2 RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO ANOTHER CIRCUIT 
    1. Turn the ignition off.
    2. Check for continuity between the (C362) Cabin Heater 2 Relay Control circuit and all other circuits at the HVAC Module harness connector.

      Is there continuity between the (C362) Cabin Heater 2 Relay Control circuit and any other circuit?

      Yes 

      • Repair the (C362) Cabin Heater 2 Relay Control circuit for a short to another circuit.
      • Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .

      No 

      • Go To  5
  5. CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS 
    1. Disconnect all HVAC Module harness connectors.
    2. Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
    3. Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
    4. Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
      • Proper connector installation.
      • Damaged connector locks.
      • Corrosion.
      • Other signs of water intrusion.
      • Weather seal damage (if equipped).
      • Bent terminals.
      • Overheating due to a poor connection (terminal may be discolored due to excessive current draw).
      • Terminals that have been pushed back into the connector cavity.
      • Perform a terminal drag test on each connector terminal to verify proper terminal tension.

      Repair any conditions that are found.

    5. Reconnect all HVAC Module harness connectors. Be certain that all harness connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    6. Reconnect all in-line harness connectors (if equipped). Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    7. Reconnect all related component harness connectors. Be certain that all connectors are fully seated and the connector locks are fully engaged.
    8. With the scan tool, erase DTCs.
    9. Using the recorded Environmental Data, along with the When Monitored and Set Conditions above, operate the vehicle in the conditions that set the DTC.
    10. With the scan tool, read HVAC Module DTCs.

      Did the DTC return?

      Yes 

      No 

      • The wiring or poor connection problem has been repaired.
      • Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
