DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) – P1537 A/C COMPRESSOR RELAY HIGH
V O LTA G E
Circuit Description
The A/C system uses an A/C refrigerant pressure sen-
sor mounted in the high pressure side of the A/C refrig-
erant system to monitor A/C refrigerant pressure. The
engine control module (ECM) uses this information to
turn ON the engine coolant fans when the A/C refriger-
ant pressure is high and to keep the compressor disen-
gaged when A/C refrigerant pressure is excessively high
or low.
Conditions for Setting the DTC

A/C compressor relay circuit short to battery.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will not illumi-
nate.

The ECM will store conditions which were present
when the DTC was set as Failure Records data only.

This information will not be stored in the Freeze
Frame data.Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up
cycles without a fault.

DTC(s) can be cleared by using the scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
Inspect harness connectors for backed-out terminals,
improper mating, broken locks, improperly formed or
damaged terminals, and poor terminal-to-wire connec-
tion at the ECM.
Inspect the wiring harness for damage. If the harness
appears to be OK, observe the A/C pressure display on
the scan tool while moving the connectors and wiring
harnesses related to the ACP sensor. A change in the
A/C pressure display will indicate the location of the
fault.
If DTC P1537 cannot be duplicated, reviewing the Fail
Records vehicle mileage since the diagnostic test last
failed may help determine how often the condition that
caused the DTC to set occurs. This may assist in diag-
nosing the condition.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) – P0604 ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
INTERNAL/EXTERNAL RAM ERROR
Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) is the control center
of the fuel injection system. It constantly looks at the in-
formation from various sensors, and controls the sys-
tems that after vehicle performance. The ECM also
performs the diagnostic function of the system. It can
recognize operational problems, alert the driver through
the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), and store a Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC) or DTCs which identify the
problem areas to aid the technician in making repairs.
An electrically erasable programmable read only
memory (EEPROM) is used to house the program infor-
mation and the calibrations required for engine, trans-
axle, transaxle diagnostics operation. The ECM uses a
value called a checksum for error detection of the soft-
ware. The checksum is a value that is equal to all the
numbers in the software added together. The ECM adds
all the values in the software and if that value does not
equal the checksum value, a checksum error is indi-
cated.Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects more than 3 incorrect checksum.
Action taken when The DTCs Sets

The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) will illuminate.

The ECM will record operating conditions at the time
the diagnostic fails. This information will be stored in
the Freeze Frame and Failure Records buffers.

A history DTC is stored.

Coolant fan turns on.
Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC

The MIL will turn off after four consecutive ignition
cycles in which the diagnostic runs without a fault.

A history DTC will clear after 40 consecutive warm-up
cycles without a fault.

DTC(s) can be cleared by using the scan tool.

POOR FUEL ECONOMY
Definition: Fuel economy, as measured by an actual
road test, is noticeably lower than expected. Also, fuel
economy is noticeably lower than it was on this vehicle
at one time, as previously shown by an actual road test.
Important: Driving habits affect fuel economy. Check
the owner’s driving habits by asking the following ques-
tions:1. Is the A/C system (i.e. defroster mode) turned on all
the time?
2. Are the tires at the correct air pressure?
3. Have excessively heavy loads been carried?
4. Does the driver accelerate too much and too often?
Suggest the driver read the section in the owner’s
manual about fuel economy.
