Fleetwood V8-368 6.0L VIN 9 FI (1982)
3. If the 5 amp fuse blows, remove the compressor clutch coil connector and check the clutch diode using the diode check setting on a DVOM. If the
diode checks bad, replace the diode.
4. Check voltage to ground and resistance to ground on circuit 204 with the power module and compressor clutch coil disconnected and the ignition
in the run position using a DVOM. A voltage reading over .1 volt indicates there is a short to voltage on circuit 204, which should be repaired. If a
short to ground is found on circuit 204, this should be repaired. If circuit 204 checks ok, replace the compressor clutch coil.
To check the blower motor circuit:
1. Disconnect the single wire connector (blower motor control circuit 918) from the power module. Select 60° AUTO ECC setting.
2. Connect an ammeter with greater than 25 amp capacity between the single wire connector and ground. This will turn the blower on full and give a
blower motor draw reading. If an ammeter with 25 amp capacity is unavailable, substitute a 20 amp inline fuse for the ammeter and use heavy gage
jumpers from circuit 918 to the in-line fuse and from the in-line fuse to ground.
3a. If an ammeter is used:
The amp draw after one minute (steady-state blower motor draw) should not exceed 20 amps. If blower motor draw exceeds this parameter, it
should be replaced.
3b. If an in-line fuse is used:
The 20 amp fuse should not blow after five minutes of blower operation. If the fuse blows at any time during the five minute test period, replace
the blower motor.
After completing all diagnosis, replace the power module.
NOTE: When checking the blower motor draw if a 25 amp ammeter is not available, a 20 amp fuse may be substituted for the ammeter. The
substitution of a 20 amp fuse is preferable to the use of an ammeter with a 100 amp or greater full scale reading. If a 20 amp fuse is substituted for an
ammeter in the blower motor draw test, a blown fuse would indicate failure of the test.
