2WARNING: NEVER OPERATE THE HEATER IN AN ENCLOSED AREA
THAT DOES NOT HAVE EXHAUST VENTILATION FACILITIES. ALWAYS
VENT THE EXHAUST WHEN OPERATING THE HEATER. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY
OR DEATH.
WARNING: ALLOW THE HEATER ASSEMBLY TO COOL BEFORE PER-
FORMING A COMPONENT INSPECTION/REPAIR/REPLACEMENT. FAIL-
URE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN PERSONAL
INJURY OR DEATH.
NOTE: The heater's control unit will store up to five DTCs in its memory.
NOTE: If the heater's control unit detects a new fault in the system, one that
is not already stored in its memory, it will clear the oldest of the five stored
DTCs, and it will store the new fault's DTC.
NOTE: If the heater's control unit detects a reoccurrence of a stored fault,
it will overwrite that fault's DTC with the most recent occurrence.
Turn the ignition on.
Verify that the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster is switched off.
Set the blend control to the max heat position and the mode control to the floor
position.
With the DRBIIIt, record and erase the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster Module's
DTCs.
Start the engine. Allow the engine to idle.
With the DRBIIIt, monitor for Cabin Heater Module or Heater Booster Module DTCs
while performing the following step.
NOTE: Do not disconnect the vehicle's battery or the heater's main power
supply while the heater is in operation or in run-down mode. Failure to
follow these instructions can result in excess emissions from the heater
during heater operation.
Switch the Cabin Heater or Heater Booster on. If operable, allow the heater to run
through at least one cycle of operation (approximately 10 minutes), and then switch
the heater off.
Does the DRBIIItdisplay any DTCs?All
Ye s!If the Heater In Lockout Mode DTC is present, record and erase
DTCs before performing any diagnostic procedures. Return to the

Symptom List:
HEATER IN LOCKOUT MODE
HEATER OVERHEATED
SUCCESSIVE OVERHEATING
Test Note: All symptoms listed above are diagnosed using the same tests.
The title for the tests will be HEATER IN LOCKOUT MODE.
When Monitored and Set Condition:
HEATER IN LOCKOUT MODE
When Monitored: During heater activation and operation.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if multiple attempts to start the heater have failed or if
successive overheating occurs.
HEATER OVERHEATED
When Monitored: After heater activation, when the system is in a steady state of
operation.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if the Temperature Sensor's resistance or Overheating
Sensor's resistance is not within the expected parameters (coolant temperature in the
heater module exceeds 105ÉC [221ÉF]).
SUCCESSIVE OVERHEATING
When Monitored: After heater activation, when the system is in a steady state of
operation.
Set Condition: This DTC will set if successive overheating occurs.
