A/C CLUTCH DIAGNOSIS
A/C Clutch Circuit Operation
A 12-volt signal is supplied to the A/C request input of
the ECM when the A/C is selected through the A/C
control switch.
The A/C compressor clutch relay is controlled through
the ECM. This allows the ECM to modify the idle air
control position prior to the A/C clutch engagement for
better idle quality. If the engine operating conditions are
within their specified calibrated acceptable ranges, the
ECM will enable the A/C compressor relay. This is done
by providing a ground path for the A/C relay coil within
the ECM. When the A/C compressor relay is enabled,
battery voltage is supplied to the compressor relay is
enabled, battery voltage is supplied to the compressor
clutch coil.
The ECM will enable the A/C compressor clutch
whenever the engine is running and the A/C has been
requested. The ECM will not enable the A/C
compressor clutch if any of the following conditions are
met:
• The engine speed is greater than 6000 RPM.
• The ECT is greater than 122°C (251°F).
• The throttle is more than 95% open.
A/C Clutch Circuit Purpose
The A/C compressor operation is controlled by the
engine control module (ECM) for the following reasons:
• It improves idle quality during compressor clutch engagement.
• It improves wide open throttle (WOT) performance.
• It provides A/C compressor protection from operation with incorrect refrigerant pressures.
The A/C electrical system consists of the following
components:
• The A/C control switch.
• The A/C refrigerant pressure switches.
• The A/C compressor clutch.
• The A/C compressor clutch relay.
•The ECM.
A/C Request Signal
This signal tells the ECM when the A/C mode is
selected at the A/C control switch. The ECM uses this
input to adjust the idle speed before turning on the A/C
clutch. The A/C compressor will be inoperative if this
signal is not available to the ECM.
Refer to A/C Clutch Circuit Diagnosis for A/C wiring
diagrams and diagnosis for the A/C electrical system.

involved. Using the service manual, you should
determine and investigate the following circuit
characteristics:
• Electrical: – How is the circuit powered (power distributioncharts and/or fuse block details)?
– How is the circuit grounded (ground distribution charts)?
– How is the circuit controlled or sensed (theory of operation):
– If it is a switched circuit, is it normally open or normally closed?
– Is the power switched or is the ground switched?
– Is it a variable resistance circuit (ECT sensor or TP sensor, for example)?
– Is it a signal generating device (MAF sensor of VSS, for example)?
– Does it rely on some mechanical/vacuum device to operate?
•Physical:
– Where are the circuit components (componentlocators and wire harness routing diagrams):
– Are there areas where wires could be chafed or pinched (brackets or frames)?
– Are there areas subjected to extreme temperatures?

SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
PRELIMINARY CHECKS
Before using this section, perform the “On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) System Check” and verify all of the
following items:
• The engine control module (ECM) and malfunction indicator lamp (MIL = Check Engine Lamp) are
operating correctly.
• There are no Diagnostic Trouble Code(s) stored.
• Tech 2 data is within normal operating range. Refer to Typical Scan Data Values.
• Verify the customer complaint and locate the correct symptom in the table of contents. Perform the
procedure included in the symptom chart.
VISUAL/PHYSICAL CHECK
Several of the symptom procedures call for a careful
visual/physical check. This can lead to correcting a
problem without further checks and can save valuable
time. This check should include the following items:
• ECM grounds for cleanliness, tightness and proper location.
• Vacuum hoses for splits, kinks, and proper connection, shown on the “Emission Control System
Schematics”. Check thoroughly for any type of leak or
restriction.
• Air intake ducts for collapsed or damaged areas.
• Air leaks at throttle body mounting area, manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor and intake manifold
sealing surfaces.
• Ignition wires for cracking, harness, and carbon tracking.
• Wiring for proper connections, pinches and cuts.
INTERMITTENT
Important: An intermittent problem may or may not turn
on the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) or store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code. Do NOT use the Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) charts for intermittent problems.
The fault must be present to locate the problem.
Most intermittent problems are cased by faulty electrical
connections or wiring. Perform a careful visual/physical
check for the following conditions.
• Poor mating of the connector halves or a terminal not fully seated in the connector (backed out).
• Improperly formed or damaged terminal.
• All connector terminals in the problem circuit should be carefully checked for proper contact tension.
• Poor terminal-to-wire connection. This requires removing the terminal form the connector body to
check.
• Ignition coils shorted to ground and arcing at ignition wires or plugs. • MIL (Check Engine Lamp) wire to ECM shorted to
ground.
• Poor ECM grounds. Refer to the ECM wiring diagrams.
Road test the vehicle with a Digital Multimeter
connected to a suspected circuit. An abnormal voltage
when the malfunction occurs is a good indication that
there is a fault in the circuit being monitored.
Using Tech 2 to help detect intermittent conditions. The
Tech 2 has several features that can be used to located
an intermittent condition.
An intermittent MIL (Check Engine Lamp) with no stored
Diagnostic Trouble Code may be caused by the
following:
• Ignition coil shorted to ground and arcing at ignition wires or plugs.
• MIL (Check Engine Lamp) wire to ECM short to ground.
• Poor ECM grounds. Refer to the ECM wiring diagrams.
Check for improper installation of electrical options such
as light, cellular phones, etc. Check all wires from ECM
to the ignition control module for poor connections.
Check for an open diode across the A/C compressor
clutch and check for other open diodes (refer to wiring
diagrams in Electrical Diagnosis).
If problem has not been found, refer to ECM connector
symptom tables.
• Check the “Broadcast Code” of the ECM, and compare it with the latest Isuzu service bulletins and/
or Isuzu EEPROM reprogramming equipment to
determine if an update to the ECM’s reprogrammable
memory has been released.
To check the “Broadcast Code”, connect the Tech 2,
then look for “ID info.” then select “Broadcast Code”.
This should display a 4 character code, such as “XBYA”
(example only).
This identifies the contents of the reprogrammable
software and calibration contained in the ECM.
If the “Broadcast Code” is not the most current
available, it is advisable to reprogram the ECM’s
EEPROM memory, which may either help identify a
hard-to find problem or may fix the problem.
The Service Programming System (SPS) will not allow
incorrect software programming or incorrect calibration
changes.

Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics Page 6C1-2–4

1 General Information
1.1 Diagnostic System Check
The engine management diagnostic procedure is organised in a logical structure that begins with the Diagnostic System
Check. The Diagnostic System Check directs the diagnostic procedure to the logical steps necessary to diagnose an
engine driveability fault condition.
1.2 Diagnostic Trouble Code Tables
The Diagnostic System Check directs the diagnostic procedure to the appropriate diagnostic trouble code (DTC) tables
if there is a DTC currently stored in the engine control module (ECM).
The diagnostic tables locate a faulty circuit or component through a logic based on the process of elimination. These
diagnostic tables are developed with the following assumptions:
• the vehicle functioned correctly at the time of assembly,
• there are no multiple faults, and
• the problem currently exists.
Understanding and the correct use of the diagnostic tables are essential to reduce diagnostic time and to prevent
misdiagnosis.
Multiple DTC Fault Conditions
Some fault conditions trigger multiple component DTCs even if the fault condition exists only on a single component. If
there are multiple DTCs stored in the ECM, the service technician must view and record all DTCs logged.
The relationship between the logged DTCs can then be analysed to determine the source of the fault condition. Always
begin the diagnostic process with the DTC table of the fault condition that may trigger other DTCs to set.
The following fault conditions may trigger multiple DTCs:
• a fault in the serial data communication circuit,
• a system voltage that is too low may cause incorrect engine management system operation or engine
management component malfunction,
• a system voltage that is too high may damage the ECM and/or other engine management components,
• fault condition in the ECM read only memory (ROM) or random access memory (RAM),
• fault condition in the ECM internal circuitry or programming,
• improperly connected sensor or component wiring connector, or
• an electrical fault condition in the following shared ECM electrical circuits trigger DTCs on components or sensors
that share in the faulty shared circuit. Test the electrical circuit of the appropriate sensors or components to isolate
the fault condition. Refer to 3 W iring Diagrams and Connector Charts in this Section.
• 5 V Reference Circuit,
• Low Reference Circuit, or
• Ignition Control Voltage Circuit.
If there are no obvious faults to begin a multiple DTC fault condition diagnostic procedure, diagnose the DTCs in the
following order unless directed otherwise:
1 Always start with the lowest numbered component level DTCs such as:
• sensor DTCs,
• solenoid DTCs, or
• relay DTCs.
2 Then follow with system level DTCs such as:
• misfire DTCs,

Additional Information
• Use the J 35616-B Connector Test Adapter Kit for any test that requires probing the ECM harness connector or a
component harness connector.
• Inspect the ignition coils for aftermarket devices. An aftermarket device connected to the ignition coil circuits, may
cause a condition with the ignition coils.
• For an intermittent fault condition, refer to 5.2 Intermittent Fault Conditions in this Section.
• To assist diagnosis, refer to 3 W iring Diagrams and Connector Charts in this Section, for the system wiring
diagram and connector charts.
Test Description
The numbers below refer to the step numbers on the diagnostic table.
4 The ignition coils for each bank are fused separately. If a fuse opens or the ignition 1 voltage circuit opens between the fuse and the splice, all the ignition coils for one bank of the engine would be inoperative. If the ground
circuit opens at the engine block, the ignition coils would be inoperative for one bank of the engine.
5 This step tests for an open or a high resistance in the ignition 1 voltage circuit of the ignition coil. If the DMM does not display near battery voltage there is an open or a high resistance in the circuit.
6 This step determines if the ground circuit is open. If the circuit is open, the ignition coils would be inoperative for one bank of the engine.
7 This step determines if the ignition 1 voltage circuit is shorted to ground. If the fuse is open, the ignition coils would be inoperative for one bank of the engine.
