Nissan Maxima Service and Repair Manual: B2578, B2579 in-vehicle sensor
Description
In-vehicle Sensor
- The in-vehicle sensor (1) is located on instrument lower cover (LH).
- It converts variations in compartment air temperature drawn from the aspirator into a resistance value. It is then input into the A/C auto amp.
In-vehicle Sensor Circuit
Aspirator
The aspirator (1) is located on driver side of heater & cooling unit assembly. It produces vacuum pressure due to air discharged from the heater & cooling unit assembly, continuously taking compartment air in the aspirator.

DTC DETECTION LOGIC
NOTE: If DTC is displayed along with DTC U1000 or U1010, first diagnose the DTC U1000 or U1010.
DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.CHECK WITH SELF-DIAGNOSIS FUNCTION OF CONSULT
- Using CONSULT, perform "SELF-DIAGNOSIS RESULTS" of HVAC.
- 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
- Disconnect in-vehicle sensor connector.
- Turn ignition switch ON.
- Check voltage between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M34 terminal 1 and ground.
1 - Ground: Approx. 5V
2.CHECK CONTINUITY BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND A/C AUTO AMP.
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect A/C auto amp. connector.
- Check continuity between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M34 (A) terminal 2 and A/C auto amp. harness connector M37 (B) terminal 37.
2 - 37: Continuity should exist.
3.CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR
Check in-vehicle sensor.
4.CHECK CONTINUITY BETWEEN IN-VEHICLE SENSOR AND A/C AUTO AMP.
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect A/C auto amp. connector.
- Check continuity between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M34 (A) terminal 1 and A/C auto amp. harness connector M37 (B) terminal 36.
1 - 36: Continuity should exist.
- Check continuity between in-vehicle sensor harness connector M34 (A) terminal 1 and ground.
1 - Ground: Continuity should not exist.
Component Inspection
1.CHECK IN-VEHICLE SENSOR
- Turn ignition switch OFF.
- Disconnect in-vehicle sensor connector.
- Check resistance between in-vehicle sensor terminals.
