NOTE: This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC is stored. Refer to HVAC System Test (ATC) for stored DTC test procedures.
Diagnostic Test
1. INSTALL A SUBSTITUTE REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY & THEN CHECK FOR DTC B106C–REAR DEFROST CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH
Turn the ignition on.
Verify that the EBL mode switch is off.
Turn the ignition off.
Install a substitute Rear Window Defogger Relay.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, erase HVAC DTCs.
Turn the ignition off, wait 10 seconds, and turn the ignition on.
Press the EBL mode switch is on.
With the scan tool, read HVAC DTCs.
Does the scan tool display: B106C–REAR DEFROST CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Replace the original Rear Window Defogger Relay in accordance with the Service Information.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST – VER 1. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
2. CHECK (C115) REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
Turn the ignition on.
Verify that the EBL mode switch is off.
Turn the ignition off.
Remove the substitute Rear Window Defogger Relay.
Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage of the (C115) Rear Window Defogger Relay Control circuit.
Is the voltage above 0.2 volts?
Yes
- Repair the (C115) Rear Window Defogger Relay Control circuit for a short to voltage. Reinstall the original Rear Window Defogger Relay.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST – VER 1. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
No
- Go To 3
3. CHECK (C115) REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER RELAY CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR AN OPEN
Turn the ignition off.
Measure the resistance of the (C115) Rear Window Defogger Relay Control circuit between the Rear Window Defogger Relay connector terminal 85 in the JB and the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.
Is the resistance below 5.0 ohms?
Yes
- Replace the A/C Heater Control in accordance with the Service Information. Reinstall the original Rear Window Defogger Relay.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST – VER 1. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
No
- Repair the (C115) Rear Window Defogger Relay Control circuit for an open. Reinstall the original Rear Window Defogger Relay.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST – VER 1. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
