TEST
1. Power Transistor - Test
1. Measure the resistance between terminals No. 2 and No. 4 of the power transistor. It should be
about 1.5 kohms.
ο¬
If the resistance is within the specifications, go to step 3.
ο¬
If the resistance is not within the specifications, replace the power transistor.
NOTE:
Also check the blower motor. Power transistor failure can be caused
by a defective blower motor.
2. Reconnect the power transistor connector.

3. Connect HVAC control unit connector terminals No. 9 and No. 12 with a jumper wire.
4. Turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
5. Check that the blower motor runs.
ο¬
If the blower motor does not run, replace the power transistor.
NOTE: A faulty blower motor can cause the power transistor to fail.
Before replacing the power transistor, check the blower motor
for binding, and replace it if necessary.
ο¬
If the blower motor runs, the power transistor is OK.
