DTC Descriptor



DTC B3843 02



- Outside Air Quality Sensor Circuit Short to Ground



DTC B3843 05



- Outside Air Quality Sensor Circuit High Voltage/Open



DTC B3843 08



- Outside Air Quality Sensor Circuit Performance - Signal Invalid



Circuit/System Description



The HVAC control module detects exhaust gas by an air quality sensor. The air quality sensor is a 3-wire sensor with an ignition voltage circuit, a



ground circuit and a signal circuit.



The information is pulse width modulation (PWM) signal generated on the output pin.



The HVAC control module evaluates the information of the air quality sensor and closes the recirculation door while in the automatic mode as soon



as the concentration of pollutants exceeds a preset value.



Conditions for Running the DTC



* Ignition ON.



* The HVAC control module is ON.



Conditions for Setting the DTC



B3843 02



No PWM is detected and the signal is low.



B3843 05



No PWM is detected and the signal is high.



B3843 08



The Sensor sends a 5% PWM signal indicating an internal sensor short circuit or open circuit.



Action Taken When the DTC Sets



The automatic recirculation mode is disabled.
