Check that the cool air blows from the outlets.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >>GO TO 7.
NO >>Check for insufficient cooling. Refer to Diagnosis Procedure.
CHECK TEMPERATURE INCREASE
Operate the temperature control switch (driver side) and raise the temperature setting to 89°F or 90°F (32°C) after warming up the engine.
Check that the warm air blows from the outlets.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >>GO TO 8.
