connectors C-376 from the HIM for 5 minutes and then reconnect
both connectors.

PINPOINT TEST P : CABIN TEMPERATURE SENSOR OPERATION (HIGH SERIES/ACC)

NOTE: With the ignition key in the ignition or start position, the BEM provides power to the fan motor of the

cabin temperature module. With the ignition switch in the ignition position the BEM reads the analogue

temperature signal from the module and converts the analogue data into degrees Centigrade and transmits

this data on the CAN bus to the climate control system.
DTC’s will not be logged for invalid data when the ignition switch is in the off or accessories position.
The WDS service tool is to be used to program and check the calibration factor loaded into the BEM. This

calibration factor should be the same as the calibration factor identified on the CTS ID label.

NOTE: REFER to Section 412-02 SYMPTOM CHART BEFORE PROCEEDING

Yes

Go to P2

Place a small piece of tissue paper over the cabin temperature grille.

No

Ensure that the grille is completely covered.

Check for blockage of the cabin temperature

Does the tissue paper stick to the grille to indicate air being

sensor grille and remove any restrictions and

drawn into the cabin temperature sensor?

P2

CABIN TEMPERATURE SENSOR READING

Using the WDS tester activate and monitor Pid INT_TEMP.

Yes

CTS is operating correctly.

Place a thermometer/temperature probe in front of the CTS grille and
check that the reading matches the INT_TEMP information on the

No

WDS tester.

CTS is faulty. Replace the ICC. Section 413-08

Using a hair dryer or similar blow warm air across the
thermometer/temperature probe and into the CTS grille.

Check that the temperature changes on the thermometer/temperature
probe match the INT_TEMP information on the WDS tester.

Does the temperature change on the thermometer/temperature
probe match the INT_TEMP information on the WDS?
