DTC B1411/11 - Room Temperature Sensor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

This sensor detects the temperature inside the cabin and sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier.






WIRING DIAGRAM





INSPECTION PROCEDURE

PROCEDURE

1. READ VALUE USING INTELLIGENT TESTER
(a) Connect the intelligent tester to DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and turn the intelligent tester main switch ON.
(c) Select the items below in the DATA LIST, and read the displays on the intelligent tester.

DATA LIST / AIR CONDITIONER:





Result:






C -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER
B -- PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
A -- Continue to next step.
2. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER





(a) Remove the A/C amplifier with connectors still connected.
(b) Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard voltage:





HINT: As the temperature increases, the voltage decreases.

Result:






C -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER
B -- PROCEED TO NEXT CIRCUIT INSPECTION SHOWN IN PROBLEM SYMPTOMS TABLE
A -- Continue to next step.
3. INSPECT A/C ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR





(a) Remove the A/C room temperature sensor.
(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:





NOTICE:
- Hold the sensor only by its connector. Touching the sensor may change the resistance value.
- When measuring, the sensor temperature must be the same as the room temperature.
HINT: As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (see the graph).

NG -- REPLACE A/C ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR
OK -- Continue to next step.
4. CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER - A/C ROOM TEMPERATURE SENSOR)





(a) Disconnect the connector from the A/C room temperature sensor.





(b) Disconnect the connector from the A/C amplifier.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance:






NG -- REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
OK -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER
