Self Diagnosis

1.	Self-diagnosis process

How to read self-diagnostic code

During the self-diagnosis, the corresponding fault code flickers on the setup temperature display panel every 0.5 second and will show two figures.

Fault codes are displayed in numerical format.

Display	Fail description
00	Normal
11	In-car sensor open
12	In-car sensor short
13	Ambient temperature sensor open
14	Ambient temperature sensor short
17	Evaporator temperature sensor open
18	Evaporator temperature sensor short
19	Temperature door potentiometer open/short
20	Temperature door potentiometer fault
21	Mode door potentiometer open/short
22	Mode door potentiometer fault
25	Intake door potentiometer open/short
26	Intake door potentiometer fault
43	Foot door potentiometer open/short
44	Foot door potentiometer fault
45	APT (A/C Pressure Transducer) CAN signal fault
47	RPM CAN signal fault
48	Vehicle speed CAN signal fault
49	Engine coolant temperature CAN signal fault
50	Cluster ionizer fault
51	Auto defogging sensor communication and sensor input fault

Fault code display

(1)	Continuance operation: DTC code is none or one.

(2)	Continuance operation: DTC code is two or more.

(3)

STEP operation

A.	Normal or one fault code is same as a continuance operation.

B.	DTC code is two or more.

4.	If fault codes are displayed during the check, inspect malfunction causes by referring to fault codes table.
