Symptom:
FCM - AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR INPUT OPEN
When Monitored and Set Condition:
FCM - AMBIENT TEMP SENSOR INPUT OPEN
When Monitored: Continuous with the ignition on.
Set Condition: The FCM detects more than 5.0 volts on the Ambient Temperature Sensor
Signal circuit.
POSSIBLE CAUSES
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT SHORT TO VOLTAGE
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR RETURN CIRCUIT OPEN
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SENSOR SIGNAL CIRCUIT OPEN

TEST ACTION APPLICABILITY
1 Disconnect the Ambient Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Connect a jumper wire between the sensor signal and sensor ground circuits.
Close all vehicle doors.
Turn the ignition on.
With the DRBIIIt in Sensors, read the Ambient Temperature Sensor voltage.
Is the voltage below 0.5 volts?
All
Yes → Replace the Ambient Temperature Sensor.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.
No → Go To 2
2 Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Ambient Temperature Sensor harness connector.
Disconnect the IPM C3 harness connector.
Measure the voltage between the Ambient Temperature Sensor Signal circuit and
ground.
Is there any voltage present?
All
Yes → Repair the Ambient Temperature Sensor Signal circuit for a short
to voltage.
Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1.
No → Go To 3
