  • The wiring harness or connectors may have loose, corroded, or damaged terminals, or terminals pushed back in the connector
  • Malfunction of the heater controller assembly (A/C-ECU)
 
 
 
DIAGNOSIS
Required Special Tools:
  • MB991223: Harness Set
  • MB992006: Extra Fine Probe
STEP 1. Using scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), check data list.
(1)
cautionTo prevent damage to scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE), always turn the ignition switch to the "LOCK" (OFF) position before connecting or disconnecting scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE).
Connect scan tool (M.U.T.-IIISE). Refer to "How to connect the Scan Tool (M.U.T.-IIISE) ."
(2) Check that the following service data display contents are normal (Refer to ).
Item No.1: Interior temperature sensor
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 4.
Go to Step 2.
 
STEP 2. Check of open and short circuit in SENG and INC line between interior temperature sensor and A/C controller assembly (A/C-ECU) connector.
notePrior to the wiring harness inspection, check joint connector and repair if necessary.
Is the check result normal?
Go to Step 3.
Repair the connector(s) or wiring harness.
 
STEP 3. Check the interior temperature sensor.
Refer to .
