- Disconnect the HVAC Module C1 harness connector
- Connect one lead of the DVOM to the Door Power Supply circuit being tested at the HVAC Module harness connector.
- With the other lead of the DVOM probe all other circuits at the HVAC Module harness connector.NOTE:
When back-probing a circuit at a harness connector, always use an appropriate back probing tool to prevent damage to the connector terminals.
Is there continuity between the circuit being tested and any other circuit?
Yes
- Repair the circuit for a short to another circuit. Use the wiring diagram as a guide to trace the circuits and look for any in-line connectors to help isolate the location of the short.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To 11
- CHECK THE DOOR ACTUATOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR A OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- Disconnect the Door Actuator harness connector that is associated with this DTC.
- Disconnect the HVAC Module C1 harness connector
- Measure the resistance of the Ground circuit between the component and the HVAC Module C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 2.0 ohms?
Yes
- Go To Next Step.
No
- Repair the Door Ground Circuit for an Open or High Resistance.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK THE LIN BUS CIRCUITS CIRCUIT FOR A OPEN
- Turn the ignition off.
- The LIN Bus circuits are daisy chained from the HVAC module to the door actuators. Using the wiring diagrams as a guide check for an open LIN circuit between the HVAC module and the door actuator associated with this DTC.
Where any LIN Bus circuit problems found?
Yes
- Repair LIN Bus circuits as necessary.
No
- Go To Next Step.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
- INSPECT THE DOOR, DUCTS, AND LINKAGE FOR CONDITIONS THAT COULD CAUSE BINDING
- Inspect the door and linkage for conditions that could cause the door to not move freely across the total travel of the door.
- Check for debris or objects in the ducts that could hinder the door movement.
- Inspect the door stops for damage.
- If necessary to gain access to the applicable door and ducts. Refer to HOUSING, HVAC, REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
.
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair the binding condition as necessary.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
No
- Go To Next Step.
- CHECK THE DOOR ACTUATOR
- Replace the associated Door Actuator in accordance with the Service Information.
- With the scan tool, erase DTCs and perform the HVAC Actuator Calibration Test.
Did the DTC return?
Yes
- Go To Next Step.
No
- The new Door Actuator repaired the problem.
- Perform the HVAC VERIFICATION TEST. Refer to HVAC VERIFICATION TEST .
- CHECK RELATED HARNESS CONNECTIONS
- Disconnect all HVAC Module harness connectors.
- Disconnect all related in-line harness connections (if equipped).
- Disconnect the related component harness connectors.
- Inspect harness connectors, component connectors, and all male and female terminals for the following conditions:
- Proper connector installation.
- Damaged connector locks.
