H4 CHECK THE FCIM (FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE) A/C (AIR CONDITIONING) SWITCH STATUS (CC_SW_AC) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION)

Ignition ON. Using a diagnostic scan tool, view FCIM Parameter Identifications (PIDs). Monitor the CC_SW_AC PID. Select panel mode, press and release the A/C button (indicator off) on the FCIM controls.

Does the PID display Active when pressed and Inactive when released?

Yes

GO to H5

No

GO to H8

H5 CHECK THE A/C (AIR CONDITIONING) PRESSURE SENSOR (ACP_PRESS) PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION (PID)

Using a diagnostic scan tool, view the PCM Parameter Identification (PIDs). With a manifold gauge set connected, compare the pressure readings of the manifold gauge set and the PCM Parameter Identification (PID) ACP_PRESS.

Are the pressure values of the manifold gauge set and the ACP_PRESS PCM PID within ± 103 kPa (15 psi)?

Yes

GO to H6

No

INSTALL a new A/C pressure transducer. REFER to: Air Conditioning (A/C) Pressure Transducer (412-00 Climate Control System - General Information, Removal and Installation).

H6 CHECK THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) A/C (AIR CONDITIONING) REQUEST SIGNAL (AC_REQ) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION) WITH THE A/C (AIR CONDITIONING) OFF

Using a diagnostic scan tool, view PCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs). Monitor the AC_REQ PID. While in panel mode, release the A/C button (indicator off) on the FCIM controls.

Does the PID display No?

Yes

GO to H9

No

GO to H7

H7 CHECK THE PCM (POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE) A/C (AIR CONDITIONING) REQUEST SIGNAL (AC_REQ) PID (PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION) WITH FCIM (FRONT CONTROLS INTERFACE MODULE) DISCONNECTED

Ignition ON. Disconnect FCIM C2402A. Using a diagnostic scan tool, view PCM Parameter Identifications (PIDs). Monitor the AC_REQ PID.

Does the PID display No?

Yes

GO to H9

No

GO to H8
