AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for Automatic Air Conditioning System with Side-mounted Air Conditioner Pressure Sensor), Diagnostic DTC:B1497

DTC Code DTC Name
B1497 Communication Malfunction (Bus Ic)

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioning harness assembly connects the air conditioning amplifier assembly and the servo motors. The air conditioning amplifier assembly supplies power and sends operation instructions to each servo motor through the air conditioning harness assembly. Each servo motor sends damper position information to the air conditioning amplifier assembly.

PROCEDURE


  1. PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Air Conditioner / Active Test.

    5. Perform the Active Test according to the display on the GTS.

  2. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING HARNESS ASSEMBLY (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY - NO. 1 AIR CONDITIONING RADIATOR DAMPER SERVO SUB-ASSEMBLY)

    Note

    When inspecting the air conditioning amplifier assembly, do not bring the tester probes too close to each other as a short circuit may occur.


    1. Disconnect the m1 air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.

    2. Disconnect the No. 1 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      m1-2 (BUS G) - Body ground Always Below 1 Ω
      m1-3 (BUS) - 2 (LIN) Always Below 1 Ω

  3. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY

    Note

    When inspecting the air conditioning amplifier assembly, do not bring the tester probes too close to each other as a short circuit may occur.


    1. Turn the ignition switch ON.

      Component with harness connected

      (Air Conditioning Amplifier Assembly)

      Connect an oscilloscope to terminals m1-2 (BUS G) and m1-3 (BUS) of the air conditioning amplifier assembly and check the waveform.

      OK
      Waveform is similar to that shown in the illustration.

      Tech Tips

      The waveform varies with the blower speed.
