Toyota Venza: Compressor Solenoid Circuit (B1451/51)

Toyota Venza Service Manual / Heating / Air Conditioning / Air Conditioning System / Compressor Solenoid Circuit (B1451/51)

DESCRIPTION

In this circuit, the A/C compressor receives a refrigerant compression demand signal from the A/C amplifier.

Based on this signal, the A/C compressor changes the amount of compressor output.

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
B1451/51	Open or short in A/C compressor solenoid circuit	A/C compressor (solenoid valve) Harness or connector between A/C amplifier and A/C compressor (solenoid valve) A/C amplifier

WIRING DIAGRAM

PROCEDURE

1.	INSPECT A/C COMPRESSOR (SOLENOID VALVE)

(a) Disconnect the A/C compressor (solenoid valve) connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
B29-2 (SOL+) - B29-1 (SOL-)	20°C (68°F)	10 to 11 Ω

Result	Proceed to
OK	A
NG (for 2GR-FE)	B
NG (for 1AR-FE)	C

REPLACE A/C COMPRESSOR (SOLENOID VALVE)

2.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (A/C COMPRESSOR (SOLENOID VALVE) - BODY GROUND)

(a) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
B29-1 (SOL-) - Body ground	Always	Below 1 Ω

3.	CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (A/C COMPRESSOR (SOLENOID VALVE) - A/C AMPLIFIER)

(a) Disconnect the A/C amplifier connector.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Standard Resistance:

Tester Connection	Condition	Specified Condition
D47-2 (SOL+) - B29-2 (SOL+)	Always	Below 1 Ω
D47-2 (SOL+) - Body ground	Always	10 kΩ or higher

Result:

Result	Proceed to
NG	A
OK (When troubleshooting according to Problem Symptoms Table)	B
OK (When troubleshooting according to the DTC)	C
