Ω?Go to step 4.Repair the har-
ness between auto
A/C control mod-
ule and sunload
sensor.
4 CHECK HARNESS CONNECTOR BETWEEN
AUTO A/C CONTROL MODULE AND SUN-
LOAD SENSOR.

(i51) No. 1 — (i48) No. 16:Is the resistance less than 1
Ω?Go to step 5.Repair the har-
ness between auto
A/C control mod-
ule and sunload
sensor.

terminals of auto A/C control module.
Connector & terminal
(i49) No. 3 (+) — (i48) No. 16 (
−):Is the voltage approx. 2.5 V? Go to step 6.Replace the sun-
load sensor.
6 CHECK POOR CONTACT.
Check poor contact in auto A/C control module
connector.Is there poor contact in con-
nector?Repair the con-
nector.Replace the auto
A/C control mod-
ule.
