Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
Has a problem been found?
YES
▶ Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure
NO
▶ Go to " Power Circuit Inspection " procedure.
■ Check voltage
IG Key "OFF".
Disconnect the A/C pressure sensor connector
IG Key "ON".
Measure the voltage between power terminal of A/C pressure sensor harness connector and chassis ground.
Specification : Approx. 5V
Is the measured voltage within specification ?
YES
▶ Go to "Ground Circuit Inspection" procedure.
NO
▶ Repair open in harness and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.
■ Check open in harness
IG Key "OFF".
Disconnect the A/C pressure sensor connector.
IG Key "ON".
Measure the voltage between power terminal of A/C pressure sensor harness connector and chassis ground.(Measurement "A")
