Hint: After carrying out the repair check that the fault has been remedied.
- Ignition off.
- Reconnect connectors, reinstall components.
- Ignition on.
- Activate the blower fan by turning blower fan control switch to the different manual speed settings.
Check the blower fan is operating correctly.
Is the fan working?
Yes - Fault has been remedied
No - Fault-tracing information

Information
Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
Do you want to exit fault-tracing?
Yes - Exit fault-tracing
No - Attempt New Test
