SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Unified meter and A/C amp. controls compressor operation by ambient temperature, intake air temperature
and signal from ECM.
Low Temperature Protection Control
Unified meter and A/C amp. will turn the compressor ON or OFF as determined by a signal detected by ambi-
ent sensor and intake sensor.
When ambient temperature is higher than −2 °C (28 °F), the compres-
sor turns ON. The compressor turns OFF when ambient temperature
is lower than −5 °C (23 °F).
When intake air temperature is higher than 1 °C (34 °F), the compres-
sor turns ON. The compressor turns OFF when intake air tempera-
ture is lower than −5°C (23 °F).
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR MAGNET CLUTCH
SYMPTOM: Magnet clutch does not engage when A/C switch is ON.
