INSPECTION PROCEDURE 5: Blower Air Amount cannot be Changed: Diagnosis
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
Required Special Tools:
- MB991223: Harness Set
- MB992006: Extra Fine Probe
- STEP 1. Check power transistor connector C-119 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is power transistor connector C-119 in good condition?
- YES: Go to Step 2.
- NO: Repair or replace the connector. Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The blower motor should operate normally.
- STEP 2. Measure the resistance at power transistor connector C-119.
- Disconnect power transistor connector C-119, and measure the resistance at the wiring harness side.
- Measure the resistance value between terminal 1 and ground.
OK: The measured value should be 2 ohms or less
Q: Does the measured resistance value correspond with this range?
- YES: Go to Step 4.
- NO: Go to Step 3.
- STEP 3. Check the wiring harness between power transistor connector C-119 (terminal 1) and ground.
- Check the power transistor ground line for open circuit.
Q: Is the wiring harness between power transistor connector C-119 (terminal 1) and ground in good condition?
- YES: It can be assumed that this malfunction is intermittent. Refer to HOW TO COPE WITH INTERMITTENT MALFUNCTIONS .
- NO: Repair the wiring harness. The blower motor should operate normally.
- Check the power transistor ground line for open circuit.
- STEP 4. Check A/C-ECU connector C-22 for loose, corroded or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector.
Q: Is A/C-ECU connector C-22 in good condition?
- YES: Go to Step 5.
- NO: Repair or replace the connector. Refer to HARNESS CONNECTOR INSPECTION . The blower motor should operate normally.
- STEP 5. Check the wiring harness between A/C-ECU connector C-22 (terminals 1 and 2) and power transistor connector C-119 (terminals 2 and 4).
- Check the A/C-ECU signal line for open and short circuit.
Q: Is the wiring harness between A/C-ECU connector C-22 (terminals 1 and 2) and power transistor connector C-119 (terminals 2 and 4) in good condition?
- YES: Go to Step 6.
- NO: Repair the wiring harness. The blower motor should operate normally.
- Check the A/C-ECU signal line for open and short circuit.
- STEP 6. Replace the power transistor and check the trouble symptom again
Check the trouble symptom again.
Q: Is the check result satisfactory?
- YES: The procedure is complete.
- NO: Replace the A/C-ECU.
