CIRCUIT ACTUATION TEST MODE
The circuit actuation test mode checks for proper
operation of output circuits or devices which the pow-
ertrain control module (PCM) cannot internally rec-
ognize. The PCM can attempt to activate these
outputs and allow an observer to verify proper oper-
ation. Most of the tests provide an audible or visual
indication of device operation (click of relay contacts,
spray fuel, etc.). Except for intermittent conditions, if
a device functions properly during testing, assume
the device, its associated wiring, and driver circuit
working correctly.

(22) Install fuel hose quick connectors fittings to
chassis tubes. Refer to Fuel Hoses, Clamps and
Quick Connect Fittings in the Fuel Delivery Sec-
tion of this Group. Push the fittings onto the chas-
sis tubes until they click into place. Pull on the

til the ignition switch is turned to the Off position.
(26) With the ignition key in ON position, access
the DRBII scan tool ASD Fuel System Test to pres-
surize the fuel system. Check for leaks.FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR

WARNING: AVOID RADIATOR/CONDENSER FAN
BLADES WHEN WORKING IN THE RADIATOR
AREA. FAN IS CONTROLLED BY TEMPERATURE
AND CAN START ANY TIME IGNITION IS ON. PER-
SONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.
(1) Disconnect fan control switch wire connector.
(2) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across ter-
minals in wire connector. (3) Connect a suitable continuity tester across fan
control switch terminals. (4) Start engine and set idle at 1300 rpm. The ra-
diator fan should run constantly. (5) Set the A/C controls to A/C and high blower.
(6) If the high pressure gauge reads below 1102
kPa (160 psi) there should be no continuity across
the switch terminals.
CAUTION: Do not allow engine to overheat when ra-
diator air flow is blocked.
(7) Block radiator air flow with a suitable cover to
increase the high side pressure to at least 1585 kPa
(230 psi). Electrical continuity should be detected
across the fan control switch terminals. (8) Remove cover from front of vehicle to allow
high side pressure to decrease. When pressure drops
below 1102 kPa (160 psi), continuity should cease. If fan control switch is defective, replace it.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Refrigerant removal is not necessary
when removing the Condenser Fan Control Switch.
However, a small amount of refrigerant will vent
from the switch port. Review the refrigerant han-
dling section of Safety Precautions and Warnings in
the General Information section of this Group.
(1) Disconnect wire connector from condenser fan
control switch. (2) Loosen and quickly rotate the switch counter-
clockwise and separate from the high pressure line
switch port. To install, reverse the preceding operation.
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE CUT-OUT SWITCH
DIAGNOSIS
The Differential Pressure Cut-Out (DPCO) Switch
(Fig. 3) monitors the liquid refrigerant pressure on
the liquid side of the system. The DPCO is located on
the expansion valve. The expansion valve is black in
color when a variable displacement compressor is
used. The DPCO turns off voltage to the compressor
clutch coil when liquid refrigerant pressure drops to
levels that could damage the compressor. The DPCO
is a sealed factory calibrated unit. It must be re-
placed if defective.
DPCO SWITCH DIAGNOSIS
The work area must not be below 10ÉC (50ÉF) to
test the compressor clutch circuit. (1) With gear selector in park or neutral, and park
brake set, start engine and allow to idle. (2) Raise hood and disconnect DPCO switch con-
nector boot. (3) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across the
terminals inside wire connector boot. (4) If clutch does not engage, the wiring, fuse, re-
lay, ambient switch, or high pressure cut-off switch
can be defective. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams. (5) If clutch engages, connect a suitable manifold
gauge set. Read low pressure gauge. At pressure 283
kPa (41 psi) and above, DPCO switch will complete
the clutch circuit. If the low pressure gauge reads be-
low 317 kPa (46 psi), the system is low on refrigerant
charge or empty due to a leak. Refer to Testing For
Refrigerant Leaks in the Refrigerant Service Proce-
dures section. (6) Install connector boot on switch and repeat step
number 3. If the clutch does not engage, replace the
DPCO switch.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL CABLEÐAC/AY MODELS
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
A Temperature Control Cable is used on non-ATC
heat or heater-A/C systems only. ATC (Automatic
Temperature Control) systems use an electrically op-
erated temperature control. Refer to the ATC section
of this Group. (1) Remove the A/C-Heater control panel assembly.
Refer to A/C-Heater Control Replacement in Group
8E Instrument Panel. Disconnect the cable attaching
flag from the A/C-heater control and remove the ca-
ble from control panel.
