Maintenance of Lubricant Quantity in CompressorBJS000FI
The lubricant in the compressor circulates through the system with the refrigerant. Add lubricant to compres-
sor when replacing any component or after a large refrigerant leakage occurred. It is important to maintain the
specified amount.
If lubricant quantity is not maintained properly, the following malfunctions may result:

Lack of lubricant: May lead to a seized compressor

Excessive lubricant: Inadequate cooling (thermal exchange interference)

LUBRICANT RETURN OPERATION
Adjust the lubricant quantity according to the test group shown below.
1. CHECK LUBRICANT RETURN OPERATION
Can lubricant return operation be performed?

A/C system works properly.

There is no evidence of a large amount of lubricant leakage.
CAUTION:
If excessive lubricant leakage is noted, never perform the lubricant return operation.

AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL

Stop Signal:
At the end of each transmission, a stop operation, in-operation, or internal malfunction message is delivered to
the unified meter and A/C amp. This completes one data transmission and control cycle.
AIR MIX DOOR CONTROL (AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL)
The air mix doors are automatically controlled so that in-vehicle temperature is maintained at a predetermined
value by the temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle temperature and amount of sunload.
FAN SPEED CONTROL
Blower speed is automatically controlled by the temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle tempera-
ture, intake temperature, amount of sunload and air mix door position.
With pressing AUTO switch, the blower motor starts to gradually increase air flow volume.
When engine coolant temperature is low, the blower motor operation is delayed to prevent cool air from flow-
ing.
INTAKE DOOR CONTROL
The intake doors are automatically controlled by the temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle tem-
perature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and ON/OFF operation of the compressor.
MODE DOOR CONTROL
The mode door is automatically controlled by the temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle temper-
ature, intake temperature and amount of sunload.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS

Self-diagnosis FunctionBJS000FX
DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnosis system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to appli-
cable sections (items) for details. Shifting from usual control to the self-diagnosis system is accomplished by
starting the engine (turning the ignition switch ON) and pressing A/C switch for at least 5 seconds. The A/C
switch must be pressed within 10 seconds after starting the engine (ignition switch is turned ON). This system
will be canceled by either pressing AUTO switch or turning the ignition switch OFF. Shifting to the next step is
accomplished by means of pressing temperature control switch (driver side), as required.
Additionally sifting from STEP-5 to AUXILIARY MECHANISM is accomplished by means of pressing (fan)
control switch (UP).

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.

-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?

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
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 motor)

Fan control amp.

In-vehicle sensor

Ambient sensor

Sunload sensor

Intake sensor
System Operation
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed control signal 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.
The blower motor applied voltage ranges from approximately 3.5 volts (lowest speed) to 12 volts (highest
speed).
The control blower speed (in the range of 3.5 to 12 V), unified meter and A/C amp. supplies a gate voltage to
the fan control amp. Based on this voltage, fan control amp. controls voltage supplied to the blower motor.
Starting Fan Speed Control
Start up from COLD SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 56°C (133°F), the blower will not
operate for a short period of time (up to 150 seconds). The exact start delay time varies depending on the
ambient and engine coolant temperature.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient) the blower starting delay will be 150 seconds as described
above. After this delay, the blower will operate at low speed until the engine coolant temperature rises above
56°C (133°F), and then the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start up from usual or HOT SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the AUTO switch is pressed. The blower speed will gradu-
ally rise to the objective speed over a time period of 3 seconds or less (actual time depends on the objective
blower speed).
