INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE


  1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (DUCT SENSOR (for Passenger Side))


    1. Use the Data List to check if the duct sensor (for passenger side) is functioning properly.

      Air Conditioner
      Tester Display Measurement Item / Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Duct Sensor (P Side)

      Duct sensor (for passenger side) /

      Min.: -12.7°C (9.14°F)

      Max.: 76.55°C (169.79°F)

      Actual duct temperature is displayed (for passenger side) -
      OK
      The display is as specified in the normal condition.

  2. CHECK AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER (TFAR - SG-3, TFAL - SG-2 VOLTAGE)

    A01GKL6E01

    1. Remove the air conditioning amplifier with its connectors still connected Click here.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

    3. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard voltage
      for LHD
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L77-22 (TFAR) - L77-11 (SG-3) Engine switch on (IG) at 25°C (77°F) 1.8 to 2.2 V
      Engine switch on (IG) at 50°C (122°F) 0.8 to 1.2 V
      for RHD
      Tester Connection Switch Condition Specified Condition
      L77-21 (TFAL) - L77-12 (SG-2) Engine switch on (IG) at 25°C (77°F) 1.8 to 2.2 V
      Engine switch on (IG) at 50°C (122°F) 0.8 to 1.2 V

      Tech Tips

      As the temperature increases, the voltage decreases.

  3. CHECK AIR DUCT SENSOR

    A01GN2NE04

    1. Remove the air duct sensor Click here.

    2. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      1 - 2 0°C (32°F) 14.5 to 19.0 kΩ
      25°C (77°F) 4.8 to 5.2 kΩ
      50°C (122°F) 1.6 to 2.0 kΩ

      Tech Tips

      As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.


    NG
    OK
  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER - AIR DUCT SENSOR)

    A01GKT9E08

    1. Disconnect the L87*1 or L14*2 air duct sensor connector.

    2. Disconnect the L77 air conditioning amplifier connector.

    3. Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

      Standard resistance
      for LHD
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      L77-22 (TFAR) - L87-1 Always Below 1 Ω
      L77-11 (SG-3) - L87-2 Always Below 1 Ω
      L77-22 (TFAR) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      L77-11 (SG-3) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      for RHD
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      L77-21 (TFAL) - L14-1 Always Below 1 Ω
      L77-12 (SG-2) - L14-2 Always Below 1 Ω
      L77-21 (TFAL) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher
      L77-12 (SG-2) - Body ground Always 10 kΩ or higher

    NG
