AD83.70-W-6000-30A | AHE test of electrical system temperature sensor short to ground |
| Scope of test | Measuring instrument/ Test connection | Operation/Requirement | Specified value | Possible cause/Remedy | ||
1.0 | Temperature sensor Temperature sensor circuit |
E2 | Z14 |
E1 | Ignition: OFF Heater unit: OFF (Run-on must have ended) Disconnect plug connection E on control unit (behind timer). Carry out measurement at plug sleeve housing E. | 9501050 Ω at coolant temperature 25 °C With higher coolant temperature resistance increases accordingly (e.g. at 80 °C approx. | Value in order: 1.1 Value < 5 Ω: 1.2 Value 6350 Ω: Temperature sensor Short-circuit / cable-short through moisture bridge on plug connection etc. |
1.1 | Temperature sensor Function | | Ignition: OFF Heater unit: OFF Connect plug connection E on control unit (behind timer). Erase fault memory with HHT. Heater unit: ON Read out fault code. Heater unit: OFF | If fault code no longer occurs: Inspect plug connections and surroundings for moisture. If fault code re-occurs: Inspect plug connections and surroundings for moisture. If no fault can be determined, replace control unit (Z14) on trial. | |||
1.2 | Temperature sensor Supply cable |
E2 | Z14 |
E1 | Ignition: OFF Heater unit: OFF Disconnect plug connection on heater unit. Do not remove heater unit (disconnect plug connection from maintenance flap). Carry out measurement at plug sleeve housing E. | Value > 30 kΩ: Replace temperature sensor complete with plug X9 and supply cable. Plug carrier on heater unit Allow heater unit to cool down if necessary, collect draining coolant. Value < 5 Ω: Cable harness ( ) to heater unit If no fault can be determined: 1.3 | |
1.3 | Temperature sensor Supply cable |
E2 | Z14 |
E1 | Ignition: OFF Heater unit: OFF Disconnect 14-pin plug connection (G) under air recirculation box (on vehicle blower). Carry out measurement at plug sleeve housing E. | Value > 30 kΩ: Replace cable harness to heater unit complete with molded connection plug on heater unit. Value < 5 Ω: Cable ( ) in cable harness from air recirculation box to control unit (Z14). If no fault can be determined: 1.4 | |
1.4 | Temperature sensor Supply cable |
E2 | Z14 |
E1 | Ignition: OFF Heater unit: OFF Disconnect plug connection FF8 under electrical compartment. Carry out measurement at plug sleeve housing E. | Value > 30 kΩ: Cable ( ) in cable harness from air recirculation box to electrical compartment (FF8), fit new cable if necessary (use 1 mm2, gray/green). Value < 5 Ω: Cable ( ) in cable harness from electrical compartment (FF8) to control unit (Z14), fit new cable if necessary (use 1 mm2, gray/green). | |
