B1032






B1032-EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR CIRCUIT HIGH






For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.

- When Monitored:

With the ignition on.

- Set Condition:

If the Evaporator Temperature Sensor input is out of range toward the high voltage threshold, (A/D counts reach high threshold of 253). This DTC has a maturing time of 5 seconds and a de-maturing time of 10 seconds. If the DTC's status changes from active to stored it will stay in memory for 100 ignition cycles.






NOTE: This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC is stored. Refer to HVAC System Test for stored DTC test procedures. HVAC System Test

Diagnostic Test

1. CHECK (C21) EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE





Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Turn the ignition on.

Measure the voltage of the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit.

Is the voltage above 0.2 volts?

Yes

- Repair the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Go To 2

2. CHECK (C21) EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT & (C121) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FUNCTION





Turn the ignition off.

Reconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Disconnect the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector.

Connect a jumper wire between the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit and the (C121) Sensor Ground circuit in the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector.

Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool in Data Display, read the Evaporator Temperature Sensor voltage.

Is the voltage below 0.10 volts?

Yes

- Replace the Evaporator Temperature Sensor.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Go To 3

3. CHECK (C21) EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN





Turn the ignition off.

Remove the jumper wire from the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector.

Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Measure the resistance of the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit between the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector and the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Go To 4

No

- Repair the (C21) Evaporator Temperature Sensor Signal circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

4. CHECK (C121) SENSOR GROUND CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN





Measure the resistance of the (C121) Sensor Ground circuit between the Evaporator Temperature Sensor harness connector and the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?

Yes

- Replace the A/C Heater Control.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Repair the (C121) Sensor Ground circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
