DTC    B1422/22    Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

This sensor sends 1 pulse per engine revolution to the ECM.
If the ratio between engine and compressor speed deviates 20% or more compared to normal operation, the ECM turns the cooler compressor off and the indicator blinks at approximately 1 second intervals.
The ECM informs the A/C amplifier of the operation condition of the cooler compressor through multiplex communication (CAN and BEAN).

DTC No.

2.INSPECT A/C COMPRESSOR (LOCK SENSOR)
E107321E02

  1. Disconnect the E46 A/C compressor connector.

  1. Measure the resistance of the sensor.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Specified Condition
    2 (SSR+) - 5 (SSR-)
    		400 Ω



NG
REPLACE A/C COMPRESSOR (LOCK SENSOR)
OK


3.CHECK WIRE HARNESS (ECM - A/C COMPRESSOR)
E107322E02

  1. Disconnect the E46 A/C compressor connector.

  1. Disconnect the E8 ECM connector.

  1. Measure the resistance of the wire harness side connectors.

    Standard resistance:
    Tester Connection
    		Condition
    		Specified Condition
    E8-10 (LCKI) - E46-2 (SSR+)
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω
    E46-5 (SSR-) - Body ground
    		Always
    		Below 1 Ω



NG
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS AND CONNECTOR
OK

REPLACE ECM
