Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The A/C pressure transducer receives a ground from the PCM. A 5-volt reference voltage is supplied to the A/C pressure transducer from the PCM. The A/C pressure transducer then sends a voltage to the PCM to indicate the A/C pressure.
DTC Fault Trigger Conditions
| DTC | Description | Fault Trigger Conditions |
|---|---|---|
| P0532 | A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor A Circuit Low | The A/C pressure transducer inputs a feedback voltage to the PCM. This DTC sets if the feedback voltage is less than 0.26 volts for at least 2 seconds and the ambient air temperature is greater than 0 °C (32 °F). |
| P0533 | A/C Refrigerant Pressure Sensor A Circuit High | The A/C pressure transducer inputs a feedback voltage to the PCM. This DTC sets if the feedback voltage is greater than 4.95 volts for at least 2 seconds and the ambient air temperature is greater than 0 °C (32 °F). |
