DESCRIPTION If cool air
blows from the registers regardless of the temperature setting of the
air conditioning system, the following factors may be the cause.
Symptom | Factor |
- No warm air comes out
- (Blower control is normal)
- Outlet air temperature does not increase
- (Blower control is normal)
|
- Engine coolant temperature (low)
- Refrigerant volume (low)
- No. 1 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly malfunction
- Warm-up control
- Blockage in heater radiator unit sub-assembly
- Heater radiator unit sub-assembly malfunction
| PROCEDURE
1. |
READ VALUE USING TECHSTREAM | (a) Connect the Techstream to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the engine switch on (IG). (c) Turn the Techstream on.
(d) Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List. (e) Read the Data List according to the display on the Techstream. Powertrain > Engine > Data List

Coolant Temperature | Engine coolant temperature |
Min.: -40°C (-40°F), Max.: 140°C (284°F) |
75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F): After warming up |
This is the engine coolant temperature.
HINT:
- After warming up the engine, the engine coolant temperature will be 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F).
- After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air
temperature and ambient air temperature will be approximately equal.
- If the value is -40°C (-40°F), or higher than 135°C (275°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.
- Check if the engine overheats if the value indicated is higher than 135°C (275°F).
