Corrective Actions
1. Check HTCON1 a. Inspect heater contactor 1 coil and connector. Verify there is no damage to coil, and no damage, moisture, or corrosion in connector. b. Check contactor coil resistance. Refer to Section 2.12 for contactor coil resistance values. Cannot be opened (infinite ohms), shorted (Zero Ohms) or shorted to ground. 2. Check HTCON1 Using Component Test Mode a. Use Component Test mode to energize HTCON1. (Refer to Section 5.2.4). Verify Current Draw on Component Test mode Screen. Refer to Section 2.12 for correct electrical values. b. Check coil voltage between A1 and A2. Verify 12 VDC between A1 & A2. c. Check resistance at contacts. Verify contacts are closed at L1-T1, L2-T2, L3-T3. 3. Check HTCON1 Wiring - Inspect harness and control box connector pins and terminals. (See wiring schematic Section 10.3). Verify there is no physical damage to harness, and no damage, moisture, or corrosion in connectors.
