Does the HDS indicate PASSED, FAILED, EXECUTING, or OUT OF CONDITION?
PASSED : Troubleshooting is complete. If the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM See PCM
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE . If any other Pending or Confirmed DTCs are
indicated, go to the indicated DTC's troubleshooting.
FAILED : Go to step 1 and recheck. If the PCM was updated, substitute a known-good PCM See PCM
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE , then check the OBD STATUS again.
EXECUTING : Keep the test condition until a result comes on.
OUT OF CONDITION : Meet the test condition, and check the OBD STATUS again.

DTC Description
P0532 A/C PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW
VOLTAGE
1. Problem verification:
ο‘
ο‘
ο‘
ο‘
1. Start the engine, and let it idle.
2. Turn the blower switch on.
3. Turn the A/C switch on.
4. Check the parameter(s) below with the HDS.
Threshold
Values
Current conditions
Unit Values Unit
Signal
A/C PRESSURE SENSOR Less than 0.24 V
Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?
YES : The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.
NO : Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at
the A/C pressure sensor and the PCM.
2. Determine possible failure area (PD SENSOR line, others):
ο‘
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
2. Disconnect the following connector.

A/C PRESSURE SENSOR Less than 0.24 V
Do the current condition(s) match the threshold?
YES : Go to step 5.
NO : Go to step 3.
3. Determine possible failure area (A/C pressure sensor, others):
ο‘
1. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition IG ON (II)
A/C pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
Test circuit VCC6, SG6
Test point 1 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 1 (GRY)
Test point 2 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 3 (RED)

Is there about 5.0 V?
YES : REPLACE THE A/C PRESSURE SENSOR , then do the repair verification .
NO : Go to step 4.
4. Open wire check (VCC6 line):
ο‘
ο‘
ο‘
ο‘
1. Turn the ignition switch to LOCK (0).
2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.
3. Disconnect the following connector. PCM connector A (49P)
4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.
Test condition IG LOCK (0)
A/C pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
PCM connector A (49P): disconnected
Test circuit VCC6
Test point 1 PCM connector A (49P) No. 30 (RED)
Test point 2 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 3 (RED)

Is there continuity?
YES : The VCC6 wire is OK. Update the PCM See PCM REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or
PCM UPDATE if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM See PCM
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE , then do the repair verification .
NO : Repair an open in the VCC6 wire between the PCM (A30) and the A/C pressure sensor, then do the
repair verification .
5. Shorted wire check (PD SENSOR line):

Is there continuity?
YES : Repair a short in the PD SENSOR wire between the PCM (A27) and the A/C pressure sensor, then
do the repair verification .
NO : The PD SENSOR wire is OK. Update the PCM See PCM UPDATE or PCM REMOVAL AND
INSTALLATION if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM See PCM
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION or PCM UPDATE , then do the repair verification .
