Parameter check
1)Connect SUZUKI scan tool to DLC when ignition is “OFF”.
2)Set ignition “ON”.
3)Check “A/C Evaporator Temp” displayed on SUZUKI scan tool. icon 
Is check result OK?
Check for intermittent trouble. icon 
Go to Step 2.

Evaporator temperature sensor circuit check
1)Check that ignition is “OFF”.
2)Disconnect evaporator temperature sensor and “G04” connectors.
3)Check for proper terminal connection to evaporator temperature sensor and “G04” connectors.
4)If connections are OK, check the following points.
•Resistance of “A1” and “A2” circuits: less than 1 Ω
•Resistance between “A1” circuit and ground: infinity
•Resistance between “A1” and “A2” circuit terminals at evaporator temperature sensor connector: infinity
•Voltage of “A1” and “A2” circuits: approx. 0 V (When ignition is “ON”)
Is check result OK?
Go to Step 3.
Repair or replace defective wire harness.
