7 DETERMINE IF REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR No. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT OR REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR No. 2 GROUND CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION
  • Switch the ignition off.
  • Disconnect the refrigerant pressure sensor No. 2 connector.
  • Access the A/C_PRES_AFT_COMP PID using the M-MDS. (See PID/DATA MONITOR INSPECTION .)
  • Verify the A/C_PRES_AFT_COM P PID value.
  • Is the A/C_PRES_AFT_COMP PID value 5 V or B+?
Yes Go to the next step.
No Go to Step 9.
8 INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR No. 2 SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
  • Inspect the applicable circuit for open circuit. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Is the circuit normal?
Yes Inspect the signal circuit for a short to power supply.
(See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
9 INSPECT REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR No. 2 GROUND CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
  • Inspect the applicable circuit for open circuit. (See CIRCUIT INSPECTION .)
  • Is the circuit normal?
Yes Replace the refrigerant pressure sensor No. 2 and perform the repair completion verification.
(See REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [FULL-AUTO AIR CONDITIONER (US)] .) (See REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [MANUAL AIR CONDITIONER (US)] .)
No Repair or replace the malfunctioning location and perform the repair completion verification.
Repair completion verification 1 VERIFY THAT VEHICLE IS REPAIRED
  • Install/connect the part removed/disconnected during the troubleshooting procedure.
  • Clear the DTC recorded in the memory. (See CLEARING DTC .)
  • Replicate the vehicle conditions at the time the DTC was detected using the following procedure.

  • Is the same Pending DTC present?
Yes Refer to the controller area network (CAN) malfunction diagnosis flow to inspect for a CAN communication error. (See CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK (CAN) MALFUNCTION DIAGNOSIS FLOW (US) .)
If the CAN communication is normal, perform the diagnosis from Step 1.
No Go to the next step.
Repair completion verification 2 VERIFY IF OTHER DTCs DISPLAYED
  • Perform the DTC inspection. (See DTC INSPECTION .)
  • Are any other DTCs displayed?
