AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1462/62

DTC Code DTC Name
B1462/62 Room Humidity Sensor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The room humidity sensor detects cabin humidity. The voltage of the room humidity sensor changes in accordance with cabin humidity. The A/C amplifier reads changes in the room humidity sensor.

The room humidity sensor is integrated with the room temperature sensor.

DTC No. DTC Detecting Condition Trouble Area

  2. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT)


    1. A01CGE2E14

      Disconnect the room humidity sensor connector.

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

      Standard Voltage
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G24-4 (S5) - G24-2 (-) Engine switch on (IG) 4.5 to 5.5 V

    NG
    OK
  3. INSPECT ROOM HUMIDITY SENSOR


    1. A01CDE0E02

      Reconnect the room humidity sensor connector.

    2. Turn the engine switch on (IG).

      G24-3 (RH) - G24-2 (-)

      at 25°C (77°F)

      Humidity 80%

      2.68 to 3.04 V
      G24-3 (RH) - G24-2 (-)

      at 25°C (77°F)

      Humidity 90%

      2.87 to 3.05 V

      Note


      • Do not touch the room humidity sensor because it may be affected by body temperature and may not work properly.

      • Hold the sensor only by its connector.

      • The output voltage at the ambient temperature 25°C (77°F) is shown above.

      Tech Tips

      As the humidity increases, the voltage increases (see the graph).


    NG
    OK
  4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (ROOM HUMIDITY SENSOR - A/C AMPLIFIER)


    1. A01CFVOE43

      Disconnect the A/C amplifier connector.

    2. A01CGE2E05

      Disconnect the room humidity sensor connector.

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

      Standard Resistance
      Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition
      G33-31 (S5-4) - G24-4 (S5) Always Below 1 Ω
      G33-28 (RH) - G24-3 (RH) Always Below 1 Ω
