Pinpoint Test M : Air Discharge Temperature Sensor Circuit Faults: Notes

Refer to Automatic Climate Control System for schematic and connector information.

Normal Operation and Fault Conditions 

The 4 air discharge temperature sensors contain a thermistor. The sensor varies its resistance with the temperature. As the temperature rises, the resistance falls. As the temperature falls, the resistance rises.

DTC Fault Trigger Conditions 

DTC Description Fault Trigger Conditions
B10B3:11 Right Panel Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Ground This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the right panel air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B3:15 Right Panel Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Battery or Open This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the right panel air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B4:11 Right Floor Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Ground This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the right floor air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B4:15 Right Floor Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Battery or Open This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the right floor air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B5:11 Left Panel Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Ground This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the left panel air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B5:15 Left Panel Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Battery or Open This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the left panel air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B6:11 Left Floor Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Ground This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the left floor air discharge temperature sensor.
B10B6:15 Left Floor Air Discharge Temperature: Circuit Short To Battery or Open This DTC sets when the FCIM senses erratic voltages from the left floor air discharge temperature sensor.
