INSPECTION PROCEDURE
HINT:
When releasing the parking brake, set the chocks to hold the vehicle for safety.
Check that "Brake Wear" does not appear on the multi-information display.
If it appears, check that brake pad thickness and replace the pad as necessary.

1.GENERAL
a. The air conditioning system has the following features:
In compliance with the temperature set at the temperature control switch, the neural network
control calculates the outlet temperature based on the input signals from various sensors. In
addition, corrections in accordance with the signals from the evaporative temperature sensor
and the water temperature sensor are added to control the outlet air temperature.
Controls the front and rear blower motors in accordance with the airflow volume that has
been calculated by the neural network control based on the input signals from various
sensors.
Automatically switches the outlets in accordance with the outlet mode ratio that has been
calculated by the neural network control based on the input signals from various sensors.
Automatically controls the air inlet control damper in accordance with the airflow volume
that has been calculated by the neural network control.
Turns the compressor on/off and controls the discharge capacity based on the signals from
various sensors.
Based on the signals from the ambient temperature sensor, this control calculates the outside
temperature, which is then corrected in the air conditioner ECU, and shown in the multi-
information display in the combination meter.
Switched the rear defogger and outside rear view mirror heaters on for 15 minutes when the
rear defogger switch is switched on. Switched them off if the switch is pressed while they are
operating.
Controls the orientation and the angle of the front center register based on the input signals
from various sensors and on the outlet mode.
Determines whether the clean air filter (for the front A/C) is clogged by monitoring the air
inlets, and airflow volume.
The A/C amplifier automatically controls the air inlets based on the signals from the smog
ventilation sensor.
Improves the air quality by linking the air inlet control damper and the blower motor (for the
rear A/C and air purifier), based on the signals from the exhaust gas sensor and the smoke
sensor.
Checks the sensors in accordance with operation of the air conditioner switches.

DLC3 TERMINALS SPECIFIED CONDITION
HINT:
If the display shows UNABLE TO CONNECT TO VEHICLE when you have connected the cable of the
hand-held tester to the DLC3, turned the ignition switch ON and operated the tester, there is a problem on
the vehicle side or tool side.

1.DATA LIST
HINT:
From the DATA LIST displayed on the hand-held tester, you can read the values of the displays, sensors,
actuators and so on without parts removal. Reading the DATA LIST as the first STEP of troubleshooting
is one way to shorten labor time.
a. Connect the hand-held tester to the DLC3.
b. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position.
c. From the display on the tester, select the "DATA LIST".
