OK: REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER (SEE REPLACEMENT )
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
In this circuit, the compressor assembly receives a signal on refrigerant compression required by the air
conditioning amplifier. Based on the signal, the compressor assembly changes the degree of refrigerant
compression.
