DTC B14A8: Glass Temperature Sensor Circuit [10/2014 - ]: Procedure
- READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM
- Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
- Turn the power switch on (IG).
- Turn the Techstream on.
- Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Air Conditioner / Data List.
- Check the value(s) by referring to the table below.AIR CONDITIONER
Tester Display Measurement Item/Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note Glass Temperature Glass temperature /
Min.: -327.68°C (-557.82°F)
Max.: 327.67°C (621.81°F)Actual glass temperature displayed - OK
The display is as specified in the normal condition column.
Result:
OK
REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ] )
Result:
NG
See step 2
- INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING THERMISTOR ASSEMBLY (GLASS TEMPERATURE SENSOR)
- Remove the air conditioning thermistor assembly (glass temperature sensor) (Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ]
).
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 10°C (50°F) 5.92 to 6.09 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 15°C (59°F) 4.94 to 5.07 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 20°C (68°F) 4.20 to 4.29 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 25°C (77°F) 3.64 to 3.70 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 30°C (86°F) 3.19 to 3.26 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 35°C (95°F) 2.85 to 2.91 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 40°C (104°F) 2.58 to 2.64 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 45°C (113°F) 2.37 to 2.43 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 50°C (122°F) 2.21 to 2.26 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 55°C (131°F) 2.07 to 2.12 kΩ 1 (SEG3) - 4 (TFG) 60°C (140°F) 1.97 to 2.01 kΩ NOTE:- Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensor may change the resistance value.
- When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.

REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING THERMISTOR ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ] )
Result:
OK
See step 3
- Remove the air conditioning thermistor assembly (glass temperature sensor) (Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ]
).
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY - GLASS TEMPERATURE SENSOR)
- Disconnect the D62 air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.
- Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard Resistance
Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition N3-4 (TFG) - D62-6 (TFG) Always Below 1 Ω N3-4 (TFG) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher N3-1 (SEG3) - D62-35 (SG-4) Always Below 1 Ω N3-1 (SEG3) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
Result:
OK
REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY
(Refer to REMOVAL [10/2014 - ] )
Result:
NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
