USING R-12 & R-134a REFRIGERANT
HANDLING/SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1) Always work in a well-ventilated, clean area. Avoid
breathing refrigerant vapors. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and
throat. Refrigerant is colorless and is invisible as a gas.
Refrigerant is heavier than oxygen and will displace oxygen in a
confined area.
2) A/C system high pressure can cause severe injury to eyes
and skin if a hose were to burst. Always wear eye protection, gloves
and other protective clothing when working around A/C system and
refrigerant.
3) Refrigerant evaporates quickly when exposed to atmosphere,
freezing anything it contacts. If liquid refrigerant contacts eyes or
skin (frostbite), DO NOT rub eyes or skin. Immediately flush affected
area with cool water for 15 minutes and consult a doctor or hospital.
4) Never use R-134a in combination with compressed air for
leak testing. Pressurized R-134a in the presence of oxygen (air
concentrations greater than 60 percent by volume) may form a
combustible mixture. DO NOT introduce compressed air into R-134a
containers (full or empty), A/C system components or service
equipment.
5) DO NOT expose A/C system components to high temperatures,
steam cleaning for example, as excessive heat will cause
refrigerant/system pressure to increase. Never expose refrigerant
directly to open flame. If refrigerant needs to be warmed, place
bottom of refrigerant tank in warm water. Water temperature MUST NOT
exceed 125
F (52C).
CAUTION: When R-134a is exposed to an open flame, drawn into engine,
or detected with a Halide (propane) leak tester, a poisonous
gas is formed. Keep work areas well ventilated.
6) Use care when handling refrigerant containers. DO NOT
drop, strike, puncture or incinerate containers. Use Department Of

NOTE: Components are grouped into 2 categories. The first category
covers INPUT DEVICES, which control or produce voltage
signals monitored by Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The
second category covers OUTPUT SIGNALS, which are components
controlled by PCM.
INPUT DEVICES
Vehicles are equipped with different combinations of input
devices. Not all input devices are used on all models. To determine
input device usage on specific models, see appropriate wiring diagram
in L - WIRING DIAGRAMS article. The following are available input
devices.
Air Conditioning Switch
When A/C is turned on, signal is sent to PCM. With engine at
idle, PCM increases idle speed through Idle Air Control (IAC) motor.
Airflow Sensor Assembly
Assembly is mounted inside air cleaner, and incorporates
barometric pressure sensor, intake air temperature sensor and volume
airflow sensor.
Barometric (BARO) Pressure Sensor
Sensor is incorporated into airflow sensor assembly. Sensor
converts barometric pressure to electrical signal, which is sent to
PCM. PCM adjusts air/fuel ratio and ignition timing according to
altitude.
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
On SOHC engines equipped with a distributor, CMP sensor is
located in distributor. On Eclipse (Turbo) and DOHC V6 engines, sensor\
is located beside camshaft, in front of engine. On all other engines,
CMP sensor is a separate unit mounted in place of distributor. PCM
determines TDC based on pulse signals received from sensor, and then
controls MFI timing.
Closed Throttle Position (CTP) Switch
CTP switch is located in the Throttle Position (TP) sensor.
PCM senses whether accelerator pedal is depressed or not. High voltage
(open) or low voltage (closed) signal is input to PCM, which then
controls Idle Air Control (IAC) motor based on input signal.
Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
CKP sensor is located in distributor on SOHC engines, except
1.5L 4-cylinder with California emissions. On DOHC 4-cylinder, DOHC V6
and 1.5L 4-cylinder engines with California emissions, CKP sensor is
located beside crankshaft, in front of engine. PCM determines
crankshaft position on pulse signals received from sensor, and then
controls MFI timing and ignition timing.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
ECT sensor converts coolant temperature to electrical signal
for use by PCM. PCM uses coolant temperature information to control
fuel enrichment when engine is cold.
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
Page 457 of 1501
HO2S detects oxygen content in exhaust gas and sends this
information to PCM. PCM uses input signals from HO2S to vary duration
of fuel injection. HO2S heater stabilizes sensor temperature
regardless of exhaust gas temperature to allow for more accurate
exhaust oxygen content readings.
Idle Air Control (IAC) Valve Position Sensor
Sensor is incorporated in IAC motor. Sensor senses IAC motor
plunger position and sends electrical signal to PCM.
Ignition Timing Adjustment Terminal
Used for adjusting base ignition timing. When terminal is
grounded, PCM timing control function is by-passed, allowing base
timing to be adjusted.
Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
IAT sensor is incorporated into airflow sensor assembly. This
resistor-based sensor measures temperature of incoming air and
supplies air density information to PCM.
Knock Sensor (KS)
KS is located in cylinder block and senses engine vibration
during detonation (knock). KS converts vibration into electrical
signal. PCM retards ignition timing based on this signal.
Manifold Differential Pressure (MDP) Sensor
MDP sensor converts negative air pressure in intake manifold
plenum into voltage signals sent to PCM. PCM monitors Exhaust Gas
Recirculation (EGR) system using these signals.
Park/Neutral Position (PNP) Switch (Automatic Transmission)
PNP switch senses position of transmission select lever,
indicating engine load due to automatic transmission engagement. Based
on this signal, PCM commands IAC motor to increase throttle angle,
maintaining optimum idle speed.
Power Steering Oil Pressure Switch
Switch detects increase in power steering oil pressure. When
power steering oil pressure increases, switch contacts close,
signaling PCM. PCM commands IAC motor, raising idle speed to
compensate for drop in engine RPM due to power steering load.
Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
TP sensor is a variable resistor mounted on throttle body.
PCM uses voltage signal from TP sensor to determine throttle plate
angle.
Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
Mounted on transaxle/transmission, VSS sends a pulsing signal
to PCM for vehicle speed calculation. PCM uses this calculation for
cruise control and fuel cut-off.
Volume Airflow (VAF) Sensor
Incorporated into airflow sensor assembly, VAF sensor
measures intake airflow rate. Intake air flows through tunnel in
airflow sensor assembly. VAF sensor sends frequency signal to PCM. PCM
uses signal to adjust fuel injection rate.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
NOTE: Vehicles are equipped with various combinations of
computer-controlled components. Not all components listed
below are used on every vehicle. To determine component

OXYGEN SENSOR (O2)
The O2 sensor is mounted in the exhaust system where it
monitors oxygen content of exhaust gases. Some vehicles may use 2 O2
sensors. The O2 sensor produces a voltage signal which is proportional
to exhaust gas oxygen concentration (0-3%) compared to outside oxygen
(20-21%). This voltage signal is low (about .1 volt) when a lean
mixture is present and high (1.0 volt) when a rich mixture is present.\
As ECM compensates for a lean or rich condition, this voltage
signal constantly fluctuates between high and low, crossing a
reference voltage supplied by the ECM on the O2 signal line. This is
referred to as cross counts. A problem in the O2 sensor circuit should
set a related trouble code.
COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS (CEC)
The CEC system monitors and controls a variety of
engine/vehicle functions. The CEC system is primarily an emission
control system designed to maintain a 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio under most
operating conditions. When the ideal air/fuel ratio is maintained, the
catalytic converter can control oxides of nitrogen (NOx), hydrocarbon
(HC) and carbon monoxide (CO) emissions.
The CEC system consists of the following sub-systems:
Electronic Control Module (ECM), input devices (sensors and switches)\
and output signals.
