REFRIGERANT PRESSURE SENSOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000001326460
The refrigerant pressure sensor is installed at the condenser of the
air conditioner system. The sensor
uses an electrostatic volume
pressure transducer to convert refrigerant pressure to voltage. The
voltage signal is sent to ECM, and ECM controls cooling fan system.

Wiring Diagram
INFOID:0000000001326461
Specification data are reference values and are measured between each terminal and ground.
CAUTION:
Do not use ECM ground terminals when measuring in put/output voltage. Doing so may result in dam-
age to the ECM's transistor. Use a ground ot her than ECM terminals, such as the ground.

SNOW MODE SWITCH
SNOW MODE SWITCH
DescriptionINFOID:0000000001326464
The snow mode switch signal is sent to the “unifi
ed meter and A/C amp.” from the snow mode switch. The
“unified meter and A/C amp.” then sends the signal to the ECM by CAN communication line.
The snow mode is used for driving or starting the vehicle on snowy roads or slippery areas. If the snow mode
is activated, the vehicle speed will not be accelerated i mmediately than your original pedal in due to avoid the
vehicle slip. In other words, ECM controls the rapi d engine torque change by controlling the electric throttle
control actuator operating speed.
