The in-vehicle sensor is located on cluster lid D. It converts varia-
tions in temperature of passenger compartment air (drawn in through
the integrated fan) into a resistance value. It is then input into the
front air control.

CONSULT-II, DTC B2578 or B2579 is displayed. Without a CON-
SULT-II code 30, 31, 44 or 46 is indicated on front air control as a
result of conducting self-diagnosis.
1.CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR CIRCUIT
Self-diagnosis DTC B2578 or B2579 (with CONSULT-II ) or code 30, 31 44 or 46 (without CONSULT-II) is
present?
YES or NO
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK VOLTAGE BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND GROUND
1. Disconnect in-vehicle sensor connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M32 terminal 4 and ground.
