DTC P1437: - A/C EVAPORATOR AIR TEMPERATURE CIRCUIT HIGH
| Description: | Indicates the air conditioning evaporator temperature (ACET) signal input was greater than the self-test maximum. The self-test maximum is 4.5 volts. | ||
| Possible Causes: |
|
||
| Diagnostic Aids: | The powertrain control module (PCM) sources a low current 5 volt reference on the ACET circuit (this voltage can be measured with the sensor disconnected). As the A/C evaporator air temperature changes, the ACET circuit resistance to SIG RTN (ground) changes (which changes the voltage the PCM detects). When the ACET signal is detected above the self-test maximum, check for open circuits (ACET or SIG RTN), which would cause the voltage to remain high. Although not as probable, also check for a short to voltage (VREF). | ||
