Programming Using Scan Tool

  1. Access PROGRAMMING menu on scan tool. Under DISABLE AUTOMATIC RECIRCULATION - YES/NO function, select NO. If NO is selected, manual or automatic air recirculation can be selected. If YES is selected, then air recirculation can only be selected manually.
  2. Under CIRCULATION PUMP - YES/NO function, select YES if vehicle is equipped with a coolant circulation pump. If vehicle is not equipped with a coolant circulation pump, select NO. If YES is selected and vehicle is not equipped with a circulation pump, an ACC control panel DTC 19 will be displayed on right side of control panel. If this occurs, select NO during ACC control module programming.
  3. Under CALIBRATION FOR CLIMATE ZONE - WARM CLIMATE/COLD CLIMATE function, make the selection most appropriate for climate region. Programming for climate zone specifies direction mixed-air flap is moved during ACC control module calibration. For WARM CLIMATE, calibration is toward maximum cold. For COLD CLIMATE, calibration is toward maximum heat. This function ensures that mixed-air flap does not leak when in position used most often for selected climate zone.

SELF-DIAGNOSTICS

The self-diagnostic function detects abnormal conditions of A/C control unit, related sensors and wiring. Self-diagnostic function includes automatic control back-up, which provides substitute value in case of system failure.

RETRIEVING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

  1. When ACC control module calibration is completed, any detected DTCs will be stored. During ACC control module calibration, the number of DTCs detected will be displayed in place of driver's side temperature (left side of ACC panel). A DTC number (01-23) will be displayed for 3 seconds in place of passenger's side temperature (right side of ACC panel). Saab Tech 2 or OBD-II compliant scan tool is necessary to retrieve or erase Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
  2. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC) located under instrument panel, below steering column. Turn ignition on. Following scan tool manufacturer's instructions, read and note DTCs. See «ACC CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-97913-S24095987722001051400000) and «DICE CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES»(ref-97913-S33156639992001051400000) tables. Because a functional problem in one system can be caused from a problem in another system it is important to read DTCs from all vehicle systems. Compare DTCs with customer complaint. DTC that most closely corresponds with customer complaint is probably caused by primary malfunction.

DICE CONTROL MODULE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES

Fault Symptoms

Temperature in passenger compartment (cabin) may seem too hot or too cold in relation to selected temperature. When DTC sets, ACC control module will use last valid value as a default until ignition is turned off. When ignition is turned on, a zero value will be used as a default.

Diagnostic Procedure

  1. Turn ignition off. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC) located under steering column. Using scan tool, contact ACC control module and check for DTC B2945. If DTC B2945 is not displayed, go to next step. If DTC B2945 is displayed, go to «DTC B2945: SENSOR GROUND»(ref-97913-S25228804982001051400000).
  2. Locate solar sensor under windshield, at center of dashboard. Disconnect solar sensor 4-pin connector. Turn ignition on. Connect a test light between ground and harness side of sensor 4-pin connector terminal No. 1 (Yellow/Green wire). (Scheme 6) If test light comes on, go to next step. If test light does not come on, repair open in Yellow/Green wire between solar sensor and ACC control module. When repair is complete, go to step 5.
  3. Turn ignition on. Connect a test light between harness side of solar sensor 4-pin connector terminal No. 1 (Yellow/Green wire) and terminal No. 4 (Blue/Red wire on 2000 models; Red/Blue wire on 2001 models). Test light should come on faintly. If test light comes on, go to next step. If test light does not come on, repair open or short in wire between solar sensor and ACC control module. When repair is complete, go to step 5.
  4. Turn ignition off. Disconnect ACC control module 39-pin connector. see scheme 7 Check for continuity in White wire between harness side of solar sensor 4-pin connector terminal No. 2 and ACC control module 39-pin connector terminal No. 17. If continuity exists, replace solar sensor. If continuity does not exist, repair open in White wire. When repair is complete, go to next step.
  5. Using scan tool, clear all DTCs from all systems. Recheck A/C system operation for original complaint. If A/C system is operating properly and no DTC has been detected, repair is complete. If a DTC has been detected, a control module may need to be replaced. See «CONTROL MODULES»(ref-97913-S40998985912001051400000) under SYSTEM TESTS.

Scheme 6

Temperature in cabin may seem too hot or too cold in relation to selected temperature. When DTC sets, ACC control module will use a default value based on relative position of mixed-air flap multiplied by engine coolant temperature.

  1. Turn ignition off. Connect scan tool to Data Link Connector (DLC) located under steering column. Using scan tool, contact ACC control module and check for DTC B2945. If DTC B2945 is not displayed, go to next step. If DTC B2945 is displayed, go to «DTC B2945: SENSOR GROUND»(ref-97913-S25228804982001051400000).

If test light does not come on, repair open in Brown/White wire between Black 10-pin connector and ACC control module 39-pin connector terminal No. 38. When repair is complete, go to step 5.
  3. Turn ignition on. Using scan tool, contact ACC control module and read ACTUAL MIXED-AIR TEMPERATURE LH voltage. If 4.7-5.0 volts is indicated, go to next step. If 4.7-5.0 volts is not indicated, repair open in Brown/Orange wire between Black 10-pin connector terminal No. 9 and ACC control module 39-pin connector terminal No. 19. see scheme 7and (Scheme 8). When repair is complete, go to step 5.

Using scan tool, contact ACC control module and read ACTUAL MIXED-AIR TEMPERATURE LH voltage. If zero volts is not indicated, repair open in Brown/Orange wire and go to next step. If zero volts is indicated, replace left mixed-air temperature sensor. See «MIXED-AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR (LEFT SIDE)»(ref-97913-S17794058442001051400000) under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. After repairs are complete, go to next step.
  5. Using scan tool, clear all DTCs from all systems. Recheck A/C system operation for original complaint. If A/C system is operating properly and no DTC has been detected, repair is complete. If a DTC has been detected, a control module may need to be replaced. See «CONTROL MODULES»(ref-97913-S40998985912001051400000) under SYSTEM TESTS.

ACC CONTROL MODULE PIN VOLTAGE TEST

Note. Voltage and resistance tests should be performed using a Digital Volt-Ohmmeter (DVOM) with a minimum 10-megohm input impedance, unless otherwise specified. Other tests will require either a lab scope or a logic probe.

Before performing pin voltage tests, ensure ACC control module is supplied with power (terminals No. 4 and No. 22) and ground (terminal No. 1). To ensure changes in circuit polarity are correctly detected, connect positive (Red) lead to first terminal listed and negative (Black) lead to second terminal listed.

When instructed to operate an ACC system component, press appropriate button on ACC control panel. see scheme 1 Turn ignition on (when instructed).

Expected test values listed are approximate. If test values are not as specified, inspect suspect circuit and related components. Perform repairs as necessary. If all test values are as specified, replace ACC control module. See CONTROL MODULES under SYSTEM TESTS.

Remove ACC control module from instrument panel to gain access to 39-pin connector. See ACC CONTROL MODULE under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Ensure ACC control module 39-pin connector is properly connected and terminals are clean and tight. Backprobe ACC control module 39-pin connector between specified terminals. see scheme 7 See ACC CONTROL MODULE PIN VOLTAGE SPECIFICATIONS table.
