Dual Automatic Temperature Control Module - Diagnostic Methods
The dual automatic temperature control system must be diagnosed by first retrieving any DTCs, if present.
- An on-demand (hard fault) DTC indicates that the fault is currently present. An on-demand DTC suggests a wiring fault, disconnected connector, or component failure.
- A continuous (intermittent) DTC alone (corresponding on-demand DTC is not present) indicates that the fault is an intermittent condition and may not be currently present. A continuous only DTC suggests a poor wiring connection, loose pin or terminal, or intermittent component failure.
On-demand (hard fault) or continuous (intermittent fault) DTCs can be retrieved using a diagnostic tool. If using a diagnostic tool, refer to Diagnostic tool operating manual.
On-demand DTCs can also be retrieved by carrying out the Dual Automatic Temperature Control Module on-demand Self-Test. To retrieve and/or clear continuous DTCs carry out the DUAL AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL MODULE - RETRIEVE CONTINUOUS DTCS . Always carry out the DUAL AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL MODULE ON-DEMAND SELF-TEST before retrieving continuous DTCs.
If no DTCs are present, GO to SYMPTOM CHART for the appropriate diagnostic action.
