IMPORTANT:: Ambient air temperature must be above 3°C (36°F).

1. Start the engine.
2. Place the blower motor switch in the maximum speed position.
3. Place the A/C request switch in the ON position.
4. Place temperature switch in the coldest position.

Does the A/C compressor operate?

Go to Step 8

Go to HVAC Compressor Clutch Does Not Engage

Perform the refrigerant system performance test. Refer to Air Conditioning (A/C) System Performance Test in Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning.

Did you find and correct the condition?

Go to Step 21

Go to Step 9

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Place the auxiliary blower motor switch in the Rear position.
3. With a scan tool, observe the Air Mix Door Actual parameter in the Rear HVAC/RSA data list.
4. Place the auxiliary air temperature switch from the coldest position to the warmest position.

Does the Air Mix Door Actual parameter counts change?

Go to Step 10

Go to Step 19

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Place the auxiliary air temperature switch to the coldest position.
3. Start the engine.
4. Allow the engine to reach its normal operating temperature.
5. Feel the inlet and outlet hoses of the coolant bypass valve.

Does the inlet hose feel warmer than the outlet hose of the coolant bypass valve?

System OK

Go to Step 11

11

1. Turn OFF the engine.
2. Disconnect the electrical connector of the coolant bypass valve.
3. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
4. Connect a test lamp between the coolant bypass solenoid control circuit and the ground circuit of the coolant bypass valve.
5. With a scan tool, command the Water Valve ON and OFF.

Does the test lamp illuminate on and off with each command?

Go to Vacuum Control System Diagnostic

Go to Step 12

Does the test lamp remain illuminated when commanded to OFF?

Go to Step 15

Go to Step 13

1. Connect a test lamp between the coolant bypass solenoid control circuit of the coolant bypass valve and a good ground.
2. With a scan tool, command the Water Valve ON and OFF.

Does the test lamp illuminate with each command?
