FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. SET IN SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press A/C switch for at least 5 seconds.
CAUTION:
Press A/C switch after indicating LED of intake switch.
If battery voltage drops below 12 V during diagnosis STEP-3, door motor speed becomes slower
and as a result, the system may generate an error even when operation is normal. To avoid this,
start engine before performing this diagnosis.
Former STEP-1 (LEDs and display screen are checked) does not exist in this self-diagnosis func-
tion.
>> GO TO 2.
2. STEP-2: SENSOR CIRCUITS ARE CHECKED FOR OPEN OR SHORT CIRCUIT

YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> GO TO 13.
3. CHECK TO ADVANCE SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-3
Press temperature control switch (UP, driver side).
Advance to self
-diagnosis STEP-3?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace A/C and AV switch. (Temperature control switch is malfunctioning.)
4. CHECK TO RETURN SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-2
Press temperature control switch (DOWN, driver side).
Return to self
-diagnosis STEP-2?
YES >> GO TO 5.
NO >> Malfunctioning A/C and AV switch or unified meter and A/C amp. Refer to AT C - 9 4 , "
Self-diagno-
sis" .
5. STEP-3: MODE DOOR AND INTAKE DOOR POSITIONS ARE CHECKED
Press temperature control switch (UP, driver side).
Does code No. 30 appear on the display?
YES >> GO TO 6.
NO >> GO TO 14.

by in-vehicle sensor is indicated on the display.
NOTE:
If the temperature indicated on the display greatly differs from the
actual temperature, check sensor circuit first, and then check sensor.

11 . CHECK INTAKE SENSOR
Press (DEF) switch for the third time. Temperature detected by
intake sensor is indicated on the display.
NOTE:
If the temperature indicated on the display greatly differs from the
actual temperature, check sensor circuit first, and then check sensor.

12. CHECK CAN COMMUNICATION ERROR
1. Press intake switch.
2. CAN communication error between the unified meter and A/C
amp. and the display unit or display control unit can be detected
as self-diagnosis results. (If plural errors occur, the display of
each error will blink twice for 0-5 second intervals.) .

13. CHECK MALFUNCTIONING SENSOR
Refer to the following chart for malfunctioning code No.
(If two or more sensors malfunction, corresponding code Nos. blink respectively twice.)
*1: Perform self-diagnosis STEP-2 under sunshine.
When performing indoors, aim a light (more than 60 W) at sunload sensor, otherwise code No. 25 will indicate
despite that sunload sensor is functioning properly.

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 contorol switch are
operated, data is input to the unified meter and A/C amp. from the
display unit / 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.
Potentio Temperature Control (PTC)
The PTC is built into the A/C and AV switch. It can be set at an inter-
val of 0.5°C in the 18°C to 32°C temperature range by turning tem-
perature control switch. The set temperature is displayed.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR A/C SYSTEM
SYMPTOM: A/C system does not come on.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Mode door control system components are:
Unified meter and A/C amp.
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
Sunload sensor
Intake 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 is returned to the unified meter and A/C amp.
