Description

Fault Trigger Conditions

B1B71:11

Evaporator Temperature Sensor: Circuit Short To Ground

The module senses excessive voltage drop on the sensor reference voltage circuit, indicating a short directly to ground. The module defaults to calculated evaporator temperature and the compressor is shut off.

B1B71:15 Evaporator Temperature

Sensor: Circuit Short To Battery or Open

The module senses no voltage drop on the sensor reference voltage circuit, indicating a short directly to voltage or an open circuit. The module defaults to calculated evaporator temperature and the compressor is shut off.
