Intake Sensor CircuitAJS00157
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Intake Sensor
The intake sensor is located on the heater & cooling unit. It converts
temperature of air after it passes through the evaporator into a resis-
tance value which is then input to the unified meter and A/C amp.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR INTAKE SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Intake sensor circuit is open or shorted. (24 or −24 is
indicated on unified meter and A/C amp. as a result of performing
Self-diagnosis STEP-2.)
1. CHECK VOLTAGE BETWEEN INTAKE SENSOR AND GROUND
1. Disconnect intake sensor connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Check voltage between intake sensor harness connector M254
terminal 2 (R) and ground.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> GO TO 4.
2. CHECK CIRCUIT CONTINUITY BETWEEN INTAKE SENSOR AND UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP.
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect unified meter and A/C amp. connector.
3. Check continuity between intake sensor harness connector
M254 terminal 1 (W) and unified meter and A/C amp. harness
connector M57 terminal 49 (W/G).
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Repair harness or connector.

4. Position the center pulley puller on the end of the drive shaft,
and remove the pulley assembly using any commercially avail-
able pulley puller.
To prevent the pulley groove from being deformed, the puller
claws should be positioned into the edge of the pulley assembly.
5. Remove the field coil harness clip using a pair of pliers.
6. Remove the snap ring using external snap ring pliers.
Inspection
Clutch disc
If the contact surface shows signs of damage due to excessive heat,
replace clutch disc and pulley.
Pulley
Check the appearance of the pulley assembly. If the contact surface
of pulley sows signs of excessive grooving, replace clutch disc and
pulley. The contact surfaces of the pulley assembly should be
cleaned with a suitable solvent before reinstallation.
Coil
Check coil for loose connection or cracked insulation.
