For circuit descriptions and diagrams.
1. Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
2. Unplug the A/C high pressure switch wire harness connector from the switch on the refrigerant system fitting.
3. On the four terminal A/C high pressure switch, check for continuity between terminals C and D.
