The air temperature sensors are a 2-wire negative temperature co-efficient thermistor. The vehicle uses the following air temperature sensors:

* Ambient Air Temperature Sensor

* Inside Air Temperature Sensor Assembly

* Upper Left Air Temperature Sensor

* Upper Right Air Temperature Sensor

* Lower Left Air Temperature Sensor

* Lower Right Air Temperature Sensor

* Upper Auxiliary Air Temperature Sensor

* Lower Auxiliary Air Temperature Sensor

* Auxiliary Inside Air Temperature Sensor

A signal and low reference circuit enables the sensor to operate. As the air temperature surrounding the sensor increases, the sensor resistance

decreases. The sensor signal voltage decreases as the resistance decreases. The sensor operates within a temperature range between -40 to +101掳C

(-40 to +215掳F). The sensor signal varies between 0-5 volts. The HVAC control module converts the signal to a range between 0-255 counts. As

the air temperature increases the count value will decrease. If the HVAC control module or auxiliary HVAC control module detects a

malfunctioning sensor, then the control module software will use a defaulted air temperature value. The default value for the ambient and inside air

temperature sensors will be displayed on the scan tool. The default value for the duct air temperature sensors will not be displayed on the scan tool.

The scan tool parameter for the duct air temperature sensors are the actual state of the signal circuit. The default action ensures that the HVAC

system can adjust the inside air temperature near the desired temperature until the condition is corrected.

Diagnostic Aids

Conditions for Running the DTC

Ignition ON.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The HVAC control module detects the temperature sensor signal circuit is less than -36掳C (-38掳F) or greater than 215掳C (419掳F) for greater than 15

seconds.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The system operates using a default value.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

* The DTC will become history if the HVAC control module no longer detects the condition that set the DTC.

* The history DTC will clear after 100 fault-free ignition cycles.

The air temperature sensors are a 2-wire negative temperature co-efficient thermistor. The vehicle uses the following air temperature sensors:



* Air temperature sensor - left upper



* Air temperature sensor - left lower



* Air temperature sensor - right upper



* Air temperature sensor - right lower



* Air temperature sensor - rear upper (only with CJ4)



* Air temperature sensor - rear lower (only with CJ4)



* A/C evaporator temperature sensor



A signal and low reference circuit enables the sensor to operate. As the air temperature surrounding the sensor increases, the sensor resistance



decreases. The sensor signal voltage decreases as the resistance decreases. The sensor operates within a temperature range between -40 to +85掳C



(-40 to +185掳F). The sensor signal varies between 0-5 V. The HVAC control module converts the signal to a range between 0-255 counts. As the



air temperature increases the count value will decrease. If the HVAC control module detects a malfunctioning sensor, then the control module



software will use a default air temperature value. The default action ensures that the HVAC system can adjust the inside air temperature near the



desired temperature until the condition is corrected.



Conditions for Running the DTC



* Ignition ON.



* The HVAC control module is ON.



Conditions for Setting the DTC



The HVAC control module detects the sensor signal out of range. The signal voltage is less than 0.1 V or greater than 4.9 V for more than 50 ms.



Action Taken When the DTC Sets



The system operates using a default value.



Conditions for Clearing the DTC



The sensor signal is within specified range between 0.1-4.9 V.

Circuit/System Verification



Measure actual temperature using a thermometer at each of the duct temperature sensors. Compare this value to the appropriate scan tool Duct



Actual parameter. The measured temperature should be within 5掳C (9掳F) difference of appropriate Duct Actual parameter value.



Circuit/System Testing



1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate temperature sensor.



2. Test for less than 10 ohm between the temperature sensor ground circuit terminal B and ground.
