DTC P0533

DTC P0533  : A/C Pressure Sensor Circuit High Voltage

NOTE:  Before you troubleshoot, review the general troubleshooting information .

DTC Description Confirmed DTC Pending DTC Freeze Frame
P0533 A/C Pressure Sensor Circuit High Voltage      

DTC (PGM-FI)

  1. Problem verification

    -1. Start the engine, and let it idle.

    -2. Turn the blower switch on.

    -3. Turn the A/C switch on.

    -4. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    A/C PRESSURE SENSOR More than 4.75 V    

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    The failure is duplicated. Go to step 2.

    NO 

    Intermittent failure, the system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose terminals at the A/C pressure sensor and the PCM. If the freeze data/on-board snapshot of this DTC is recorded, try to reproduce the failure under the same conditions with the freeze data/on-board snapshot .

  2. Determine possible failure area (A/C pressure sensor, others)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Disconnect the following connector.

    A/C pressure sensor 3P connector

    -3. Connect terminals A and B with a jumper wire.

    Terminal A A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 1
    Terminal B A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 2

    -4. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -5. Check the parameter (s) below with the HDS.

    Signal Threshold Current conditions
    Values Unit Values Unit
    A/C PRESSURE SENSOR More than 4.75 V    

    Do the current condition (s) match the threshold?

    YES 

    Go to step 3.

    NO 

    Replace the A/C pressure sensor .

  3. Determine possible failure area (PD SENSOR line, SG5 line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Remove the jumper wire.

    -3. Turn the vehicle to the ON mode.

    -4. Measure the voltage between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle ON mode
      A/C pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
    Test point 1 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 1
    Test point 2 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 3

    Is there about 5.0 V?

    YES 

    Go to step 4.

    NO 

    Go to step 5.

  4. Open wire check (PD SENSOR line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    -3. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector A (51P)

    -4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      A/C pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
      PCM connector A (51P): disconnected
    Test point 1 PCM connector A (51P) No. 27
    Test point 2 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 2

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The PD SENSOR wire is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM , then recheck. If DTC P0533 goes away and the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If DTC P0533 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM .

    NO 

    Repair an open in the PD SENSOR wire between the PCM (A27) and the A/C pressure sensor.

  5. Open wire check (SG5 line)

    -1. Turn the vehicle to the OFF (LOCK) mode.

    -2. Jump the SCS line with the HDS.

    -3. Disconnect the following connector.

    PCM connector A (51P)

    -4. Check for continuity between test points 1 and 2.

    Test condition Vehicle OFF (LOCK) mode
      A/C pressure sensor 3P connector: disconnected
      PCM connector A (51P): disconnected
    Test point 1 PCM connector A (51P) No. 47
    Test point 2 A/C pressure sensor 3P connector No. 1

    Is there continuity?

    YES 

    The SG5 wire is OK. Update the PCM if it does not have the latest software, or substitute a known-good PCM , then recheck. If DTC P0533 goes away and the PCM was updated, troubleshooting is complete. If DTC P0533 goes away and the PCM was substituted, replace the original PCM .

    NO 

    Repair an open in the SG5 wire between the PCM (A47) and the A/C pressure sensor.
