P0645 - A/C CLUTCH RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT
| Description: | Monitors the A/CCR circuit output from the PCM. The test fails if the PCM grounds the A/CCR circuit, and excessive current draw is detected on the A/CCR circuit; or, with the A/CCR circuit not grounded by the PCM, voltage is not detected on the A/CCR circuit. The PCM expects to detect VPWR voltage coming through the A/CCR relay coil to the A/CCR circuit. | |||
| Possible Causes: |
|
|||
| Diagnostic Aids: | The WACF PID is for the A/CCR circuit. When the WACF PID reads YES, a concern is currently present. An open circuit or short to ground can only be detected when the PCM is not grounding the circuit. A short to voltage can only be detected when the PCM is grounding the circuit. During the KOEO and KOER self-test, the A/CCR circuit is cycled on and off. Verify the A/C and defrost were off during the KOEO and KOER self-tests. Check the ACCS PID to verify. | |||
