Pinpoint Test A : P0532, P0533: Notes

Refer to Manual Climate Control System for schematic and connector information.

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 This DTC sets if the feedback voltage is less than 0.26 volt 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 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).
