DTC P0537: - A/C Evaporator Temperature Sensor Circuit Low

DTC P0537: - A/C EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW

Description:  Indicates the air conditioning evaporator temperature (ACET) signal input was less than the self-test minimum. The self-test minimum is 0.13 volt.
Possible Causes: 
  • ACET circuit short to ground or SIG RTN
  • Damaged ACET sensor
Diagnostic Aids:  The powertrain control module (PCM) sources a low current 5 volts on the ACET circuit (this voltage can be measured with the sensor disconnected). As the A/C evaporator air temperature changes, the ACET circuit resistance to SIG RTN (ground) changes (which changes the voltage the PCM detects). When the ACET signal is detected below the self-test minimum, check for shorts to the SIG RTN or ground, which would pull the voltage low.
