    Result

    Result  Proceed to
    When using cooling function A
    When using heater function B

    Result: 

    See step  5

    Result: 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK FOR DTC 
    1. Check for DTCs.

      Body Electrical > Main Body > Trouble Codes 

      Result

      Result Proceed to
      B1244-00 is not output A
      B1244-00 is output B

    Result: 

    GO TO DTC B1244-00 

    w/ AFS: Refer to DTC B1244-00: Light Sensor Circuit Malfunction [09/2021 - ]

    w/o AFS: Refer to DTC B1244-00: Light Sensor Circuit Malfunction [11/2022 - ]

    Result: 

    See step  3

  3. CHECK REFRIGERANT SHORTAGE 
    1. Prepare the vehicle according to the table below.
      MEASUREMENT CONDITION:

      Item Condition
      A/C Switch On
      Ambient Temperature*1 0 to 49°C (32 to 120°F)
      Air Conditioning Air Inlet Temperature*2 25 to 35°C (77 to 95°F)
      Set Temperature MAX COLD
      Recirculation/fresh Control Switch Recirculation
      Air Vent Damper Position FACE
      Blower Speed HI

      HINT: 

      *1: This inspection can be judged correctly only if the ambient temperature is within a range of 0 to 49°C (32 to 120°F). Therefore, postpone the test if the temperature is low.

      *2: This inspection can be judged correctly only if the air inlet temperature is within a range of 25 to 35°C (77 to 95°F). Therefore, postpone the test if the temperature is out of range.

    2. Using the GTS, check the amount of refrigerant.

      Body Electrical > Air Conditioner > Utility 

      Tester Display
      Refrigerant Gas Volume Check
      NOTE:

      If the conditions for the inspection are not met, "Refrigerant incorrect" will be displayed on the GTS. Confirm the conditions of the inspection and perform the check again.

      HINT: 

      • If the amount of refrigerant is insufficient, "Refrigerant shortage" is displayed on the GTS and the indicator light on the A/C switch turns off.
      • When performing this inspection, a DTC will not be output even if "Refrigerant shortage" is displayed on the GTS.

      Result

      Result Amount of Refrigerant
      Refrigerant shortage Insufficient or leakage
      Refrigerant correct Correct
      Refrigerant incorrect Incorrect

      OK

      "Refrigerant correct" is displayed on the GTS.

      Result

      Proceed to
      OK
      NG

    Result: 

    NG 

    CHARGE SYSTEM WITH REFRIGERANT. Refer to  REPLACEMENT [11/2022 - ] 

    Result: 

    OK 

    See step  4
