DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE

1.CHECK WITH SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION OF CONSULT

  1. Using CONSULT, perform "SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS" of HVAC.
  2. Check if any DTC No. is displayed in the self-diagnosis results.

NOTE: If DTC is displayed along with DTC U1000 or U1010, first diagnose the DTC U1000 or U1010.

Diagnosis Procedure

1.CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR POWER SUPPLY

  1. Disconnect in-vehicle sensor connector.
  2. Turn ignition switch ON.
  3. Check voltage between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M34 terminal 1 and ground.
