Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2007 Cadillac DTS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the outside air temp sensor.
- Ignition OFF, test for less than 1 ohm of resistance between the low reference circuit B and ground.
- If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.
- Ignition ON, test for 5 volts between the low reference circuit terminal B and the 5-volt reference signal circuit terminal A.
- If not the specified voltage, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage, short to ground or open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.
- If all circuits test normal, test or replace the outside air temperature sensor.
