Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 3 (PTC HTR NO. 1 relay) - Body ground Engine switch off 11 to 14 V 2 (PTC HTR NO. 1 relay) - Body ground Engine switch off Below 1 V 2 (PTC HTR NO. 1 relay) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V Standard Voltage
PTC HTR NO. 2
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 3 (PTC HTR NO. 2 relay) - Body ground Engine switch off 11 to 14 V 2 (PTC HTR NO. 2 relay) - Body ground Engine switch off Below 1 V 2 (PTC HTR NO. 2 relay) - Body ground Engine switch on (IG) 11 to 14 V Result
Proceed to OK NG
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Result:
OK
See step 3
