DTC 13 Evaporator Temperature Sensor Circuit |
DESCRIPTION
The No. 1 cooler thermistor is installed on the evaporator in the air conditioning unit. It detects the temperature of the cooled air that has passed through the evaporator which is then used in air conditioning control. The resistance of the No. 1 cooler thermistor changes in accordance with the temperature of the cooled air that has passed through the evaporator. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases.The air conditioning amplifier assembly applies voltage (5 V) to the No. 1 cooler thermistor and reads voltage changes as the resistance of the No. 1 cooler thermistor changes. This thermistor is used for frost prevention.DTC Code

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1.INSPECT NO. 1 COOLER THERMISTOR |
Remove the No. 1 cooler thermistor (HILUX_TGN26 RM0000012JQ02UX.html).
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
1 - 2
| -10°C (14°F)
| 7.30 to 9.10 kΩ
|
-5°C (23°F)
| 5.65 to 6.95 kΩ
|
0°C (32°F)
| 4.40 to 5.35 kΩ
|

- NOTICE:
- Even slightly touching the No. 1 cooler thermistor may change the resistance value. Be sure to hold the connector of the No. 1 cooler thermistor.
- When measuring the resistance, the No. 1 cooler thermistor temperature must be the same as the ambient temperature.
- HINT:
- As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases (Refer to the graph).
2.CHECK AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY |
Remove the air conditioning amplifier assembly with its connectors still connected (HILUX_TGN26 RM000001K3A024X.html).
Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Voltage:
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
G95-1 (TE) - G95-14 (SG-4)
| - Ignition switch ON
- Evaporator temperature 0°C (32°F)
| 2.0 to 2.4 V
|
- Ignition switch ON
- Evaporator temperature 15°C (59°F)
| 1.4 to 1.8 V
|

3.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER - NO. 1 COOLER THERMISTOR) |
Disconnect the G95 air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.
Disconnect the G30 No. 1 cooler thermistor connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
- Standard Resistance:
Tester Connection
| Condition
| Specified Condition
|
G95-1 (TE) - G30-1
| Always
| Below 1 Ω
|
G95-14 (SG-4) - G30-2
|
G95-1 (TE) - Body ground
| Always
| 10 kΩ or higher
|
G95-14 (SG-4) - Body ground
|
| REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR |
