INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check voltage between terminals TPI and SGTPI of A/C amplifier connector.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove center cluster module control with connectors
still connected.
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Press REC/FRS switch to change air inlet between fresh and
recirculation air and measure voltage between terminals TPI
and SGTPI of A/C amplifier when the air inlet servomotor oper-
ates.
OK:
REC/FRS SwitchVoltage
REC3.5 ± 4.5 V
FRS0.5 ± 1.8 V
HINT:
As the air inlet control servomotor is moved from REC side to
FRS side, the voltage decreases gradually without interruption.
NG Go to step 2.
OK
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on problem symptoms table (See page DI±874). Howev-
er, if DTC 32 or 42 is displayed, check and replace A/C amplifier.
