DTC B1225 (A and AUTO)

DTC B1225 or DTC indicator A and AUTO  : An open in the in-car temperature sensor circuit

DTCs (AC)

1. Problem verification

   -1. Clear the DTC with the HDS.

   -2. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode, then the ON mode.

   -3. Do the Self-Diagnostic Function with the HDS or the climate control unit .

   -4. Check for DTCs.

   DTC Description	DTC
   B1225 An open in the in-car temperature sensor circuit

   Is DTC B1225 or A and AUTO indicated?

   YES 

   Go to step 2.

   NO 

   Intermittent failure. Check for loose wires or poor connections on the in-car temperature sensor circuit.

2. Open wire check (SENS TR line)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   -2. Disconnect the following connectors.

   Climate control unit connector C (12P)

   Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector

   -3. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	Climate control unit connector C (12P): disconnected
   	Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Climate control unit connector C (12P) No. 8
   Test point 2	Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector (female terminals) No. 1:

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The SENS TR wire is not open. Go to step 3.

   NO 

   Repair an open in the wire between the climate control unit and the humidity/in-car temperature sensor.

3. Open wire check (SENSOR (COM) line)

   -1. Disconnect the following connector.

   Climate control unit connector A (32P)

   -2. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
   	Climate control unit connector A (32P): disconnected
   	Climate control unit connector C (12P): disconnected
   	Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Climate control unit connector A (32P) No. 18
   Test point 2	Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector (female terminals) No. 2:

   Is there continuity?

   YES 

   The SENSOR (COM) wire is OK. Go to step 4.

   NO 

   Repair an open in the wire between the climate control unit and the humidity/in-car temperature sensor.

4. Shorted wire check (SENS TR line to power)

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

   -2. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

   Test condition	Vehicle ON mode
   	Climate control unit connector A (32P): disconnected
   	Climate control unit connector C (12P): disconnected
   	Humidity/in-car temperature sensor 4P connector: disconnected
   Test point 1	Climate control unit connector C (12P) No. 8
   Test point 2	Body ground

   Is there any voltage?

   YES 

   Repair a short to power in the wire between the climate control unit and the humidity/in-car temperature sensor.

   NO 

   The SENS TR wire is not shorted. Go to step 5.

5. In-car temperature sensor check

   -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

   -2. Test the in-car temperature sensor .

   Is the in-car temperature sensor OK?

   YES 

   Replace the climate control unit .

   NO 

   Replace the humidity/in-car temperature sensor .
