Inspection Procedure

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Toyota Sequoia. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Check Voltage Between Terminals TE And SG-2 Of Integration Control And Panel Connector 

    Preparation: 

    Remove integration control and panel with connectors still connected.

    Check: 

    1. Turn ignition switch to ON.
    2. NOTE: As the temperature increases, the voltage decreases.
    3. Measure voltage between terminals TE and SG-2 of integration control and panel connector at each temperature.

    OK: 

    Voltage: 

    at 0°C (32°F): 2.0 - 2.4 V  .

    at 15°C (59°F): 1.4 - 1.8 V  .

    1. NG: Go to step 2. 
    2. OK: Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on problem symptoms table. See  PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE  . However, if DTC 13 is displayed, check and replace integration control and panel. 
  2. NOTE: As the temperature increases, the voltage decreases.

  3. Check Front Evaporator Temperature Sensor 

    Preparation: 

    Remove front evaporator temperature sensor.

    Check: 

    Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of evaporator temperature sensor connector at each temperature.

    OK: 

    Resistance: 

    at 0°C (32°F): 4.5 - 5.2 kΩ  .

    at 15°C (59°F): 2.0 - 2.7 kΩ  .

    1. NG: Replace front evaporator temperature sensor. 
    2. OK: Go to next step. 
  4. Check Harness And Connector Between Integration Control And Panel And Front Evaporator Temperature Sensor  .
    1. NG: Repair or replace harness or connector. 
    2. OK: Check and replace integration control and panel.
