Troubleshooting
Symptom Chart
NOTE:
. Any abnormality must be corrected before continuing the test.. Because of the precise measurements needed. use a multimeter when testinq.. Before performing any troubleshooting procedures check:- Fuses No. 47 l7 -5 Al, No. 56 (20 A) in the under-hood fuse/relay box, and No. 17 (7.5 A) in the under_dash fuse/relavbox- Grounds No. c401, c402, G751- Cleanliness and tightness of alt connectors
SymptomRemedy
Condenser fan does not run at all.Perform the procedures in the flowchart {see page 22-9).
Compressor clutch does not engage.Perform the procedures in the flowchart lsee page 22-12).
Ay'C system does not come on (compressor and fan),Perform the procedures in the flowchan (see page 22-17).
Both heater and A,/C do not work.. '96 - 98 models-Perform the procedures in the flowchart
{see page 21-18).. '99 - 00 models-Perform the procedures in the flowchart(see page 21-35).

*How to use the backprobe setsConnect the backprobe adapters to the stacking patch cords, andconnect the cords to a multimeter. Using the wire insulation as aguide for the contoured tip of the backprobe adapter, gently slidethe tip into the connector from the wire side until it comes in con-tact with the terminal end ofthe wire {see section 11}.
From page 22-15
Check for an open in thg wire:'1. Reconnect the A"/C pressure
switch 2P connector.2. Make sure the A/C switch isOFF, then turn the ignitionswitch ON (ll).
3. Using a *Backprobe Set {T/N07SAZ - 001000A), measurethe voltage between the No. 5terminal of the ECM/PCM con-nector C (31P) and bodyground with the EcM/PcMconnectors connected ('96 -
98 models), or between theNo. 27 terminal of theECM/PCM connector A (32P)
and body ground with theECM/PCM connectors connected ('99 - 00 models).
