P0647

DTC P0647
A/C compressor raises pressure to condense the evaporated refrigerant at evaporator in A/C system more easily. Without A/C signal, A/C compressor does not operate but with ON signal, PCU activates A/C compressor relay. With the relay activation, A/C compressor turns on using the power of the engine.

DTC DESCRIPTION
PCM monitors inputted voltage through A/C compressor relay. Checking voltage every 10 sec. under detecting condition, if the voltage higher than the specified value is detected for more than 5 sec., PCM sets P0647.

DTC Detecting Condition:




DTC DETECTING CONDITION

SPECIFICATION
Coil Resistance
70 ohm - 120 ohm

SCHEMATIC DIAGRAM

MONITOR SCANTOOL DATA
1. Ignition "OFF"
2. Connect Scantool and Engine "ON"




3. Monitor items related to "A/C" on Current Data
4. Are those related current data displayed correctly?

YES - Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in Sensor`s and/or PCM`s connector or was repaired and PCM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection,bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and goto "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure

NO - Go to "Terminal and Connector Inspection" procedure.

TERMINAL AND CONNECTOR INSPECTION
1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination,deterioration, or damage.
3. Has a problem been found?

YES - Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure

NO - Go to " Power Circuit Inspection " procedure.

POWER CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1. Check voltage
a. IG "OFF".
b. Disconnect A/C relay connector.
c. IG "ON" and ENG "OFF"
d. Measure the voltage between terminal 2 of A/C relay harness connector and chassis ground.




e. Measure the voltage between terminal 4 of A/C relay harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : B+

f. Is the measured voltage normal?

YES - Go to "Control circuit inspection" procedure.

NO - Check the fuse between Battery and A/C relay.Check Chassis ground 1 and 2 for looseness. Repair Open or Short to ground in power circuit and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

CONTROL CIRCUIT INSPECTION
1. Check short in harness
a. IG "ON".
b. Disconnect A/C relay.




c. Measure the voltage between terminal 3 of A/C relay harness connector and chassis ground.

Specification : Approx. 0 V

d. Is the measured voltage within specification?

YES - Go to "Component inspection" procedure.

NO - Repair Short in Coil control harness and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

COMPONENT INSPECTION
1. Check A/C relay
a. IG "OFF".
b. Disconnect A/C relay.
c. Measure the resistance between terminal 2 and 3 of A/C relay.

Specification:







d. Measure the resistance between terminal 1 and 4 of A/C relay.
e. Is the measured resistance within specification?

YES - Substitute with a known - good PCM and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace PCM and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

NO - Substitute with a known - good A/C relay and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace A/C relay and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

NOTE: There is a memory reset function on Scantool that can erase optional parts automatically detected and memorized by PCM. After testing PCM on the vehicle, use this function to reuse the PCM on the others

VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.
1. Monitor and record the Freeze Frame Data for the Diagnostic Trouble Code(DTC) which has been diagnosed.
2. Using a Scantool, Clear the DTCs
3. Operate the vehicle within conditions noted in the freeze frame data or enable conditions
4. Monitor that all readiness test have been verified as "Complete".
5. Are any DTCs present?

YES - Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure.

NO - System is performing to specification at this time.
