NO - Go to 10.

8.Disconnect the A/C wire harness from the dashboard wire harness.

9.Check the same terminals for continuity to body ground

 

Is there continuity?


YES - Repair short in the wires between the climate control unit and the dashboard wire harness 12P connector.n


NO - Repair the short in the A/C wire harness.n

10.Disconnect the A/C wire harness 12P connector from the dashboard wire harness.
