COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Unified Meter and A/C Amp. (Automatic Amplifier)
The unified meter and A/C amp. has a built-in microcomputer which
processes information sent from various sensors needed for air con-
ditioner operation. The air mix door motor, mode door motor, intake
door motor, blower motor and compressor are then controlled.
When the various switches and temperature control switch are oper-
ated, data is input to the unified meter and A/C amp. from the display
control unit using CAN communication.
Self-diagnosis functions are also built into unified meter and A/C
amp. to provide quick check of malfunctions in the auto air condi-
tioner system.

Mode door motor (LCU)

A/C LAN system (PBR built-in mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor)

In-vehicle sensor

Ambient sensor

System Operation
The unified meter and A/C amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The unified meter and A/C amp.
sends air mix door, mode door and intake door opening angle data to the air mix door motor LCU, mode door
motor LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The air mix door motor, mode door motor and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the
address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the unified meter and A/C amp. and each of
the motor position sensors are compared by the LCUs in each door motor with the existing decision and open-
ing angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEF/VENT and FRE/REC operation is selected. The new selection
data are returned to the unified meter and A/C amp.

Fan speed control system components are:

Unified meter and A/C amp.

A/C LAN system (PBR built-in mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor)

In-vehicle sensor

Ambient sensor

Sunload sensor

Intake sensor
System Operation
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the unified meter and A/C amp. based on the
input from the PBR, in-vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and ambient sensor.
When the air flow is increased, the duty ratio of the blower fan motor’s drive signal is changed at 8%/sec. to
prevent a sudden increase in air flow.
In addition to manual air flow control and the usual automatic air flow control, starting air flow control, low
water temperature starting control and high passenger compartment temperature starting control are avail-
able.
