INSPECTION
1) Disconnect negative (–) cable at battery.
2) Remove rear blower motor relay (1) and/or solenoid valve
relay (2) from vehicle.
3) Check that there is no continuity between terminal “c” and
“d”. If there is continuity, replace relay.
4) Connect battery positive (+) terminal to terminal “a” of relay.
5) Connect battery negative (–) terminal “b” of relay.
6) Check continuity between terminal “c” and “d”.
If there is no continuity when relay is connected to the bat-
tery, replace relay.
Rear A/C Main Switch
REMOVAL
1) Remove rear console box (1).
2) Remove front console box mounting screws (2) and clips (3).
3) Disconnect console box wire coupler.
4) Remove rear console box (4).
5) Disconnect rear A/C main switch connector.
6) Remove A/C main switch (5) from front console box (4).
