Mode Door
Motor Circuit" .
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual
inspection) and intake door position is at FRESH when the D/F or
DEF is selected.
CHECKING INTAKE AIR
1. Press intake switch. Recirculation indicator should illuminate.
2. Press intake switch again. Fresh indicator should illuminate.
3. Listen for intake door position change. (Slight change of blower sound can be heard.)
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 7 4 , "
Intake Door Motor Circuit" .
If OK, continue the check.
NOTE:
Confirm that the compressor clutch is engaged (sound or visual inspection) and intake door position is at
FRESH when the D/F or DEF is selected.
CHECKING TEMPERATURE DECREASE
1. Press temperature control (DOWN) switch (driver side) until 18 °C (60 °F) is displayed.
2. Check for cold air at discharge air outlets.
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 9 0 , "

If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING A/C SWITCH
1. Press AUTO switch and A/C switch.
2. A/C switch indicator will turn ON.

Confirm that the compressor clutch engages (sound or visual inspection).
If NG, go to trouble diagnosis procedure for AT C - 8 2 , "

If OK, continue the check.
CHECKING AUTO MODE
1. Press AUTO switch and A/C switch.
2. Display should indicate AUTO.

Confirm that discharge air and blower speed will depend on ambient, in-vehicle, and set temperatures.

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.
