AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Manual Air Conditioning System), Diagnostic DTC:B1422

DTC Code DTC Name
B1422 Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The ECM sends the engine speed signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via CAN communication.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly sends an air conditioning operation request signal to the ECM via direct line, and the ECM sends a magnet clutch operation permission signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via direct line.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly reads the difference between compressor speed and engine speed. When the difference becomes too large, the air conditioning amplifier assembly determines that the cooler compressor assembly is locked and turns the magnet clutch assembly off.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B1422 An open or short in the compressor lock sensor circuit.
  • Cooler compressor assembly

  • Harness or connector

  • Magnet clutch relay (MG CLT)

  • Air conditioning amplifier assembly

  • ECM
