CODE 70, A/C COMPRESSOR RELAY DRIVER

Relay is supplied voltage when ignition is on. PCM controls solenoid valve by providing a ground through one of its Quad-Drivers Modules (QDM). When relay is actuated, terminal is grounded and its monitored voltage will be low. When an output is off, its terminal voltage will be high. Each QDM has a separate fault line to indicate presence of a current fault to control module central processor.

Note. Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.

  1. Tech-1 will enable circuit for 5 seconds.
  2. This check can detect a partially shorted coil which would cause excessive current flow. Excessive current flow to a QDM will be detected as a fault and set a code.
  3. The remaining checks will identify a circuit problem that has caused an excessive current flow or inoperative relay.

Check related harness connectors, including PCM harness. Check for damaged or pushed out terminals.
