Signal Too High
Signal too high
Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) ECM-5000 Air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor. Signal too high
Reading off Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) status ECM-5000:
Note! When reading off the Diagnostic trouble code (DTC) status, other stored diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) and their status will be listed.
- Read off diagnostic trouble code (DTC) status. Check the status of the relevant Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC).
Was the status of the relevant Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) displayed as permanent?
Yes - Checking connector
No - Intermittent fault
-------------------------------------------------
Checking connector
- Ignition off.
- Check air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor connector for contact resistance and oxidation according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
- Reinstall components, reconnect connectors etc.
- Ignition on.
- Read off air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor signal.
Check that the signal is within its permitted range. The voltage should be between 0.7 - 0.9 V.
If signal is now OK this indicates that the fault was caused by poor contact in the connector.
Is the signal OK?
Yes - Verification
No - Checking wiring and components
-------------------------------------------------
Checking wiring and components
Check cable between control module #A21 (#A21) and air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor terminal 2 for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault , and a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Check cable between control module #A58 (#A58) and air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor terminal 3 for an open-circuit according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault , and a short-circuit to supply voltage according to Checking wiring and terminals. Permanent fault Checking Wiring and Terminals. Permanent Fault.
Remedy as necessary.
