A/C CLUTCH DIAGNOSIS
A/C Clutch Circuit Operation
A 12-volt signal is supplied to the A/C request input of
the ECM when the A/C is selected through the A/C
control switch.
The A/C compressor clutch relay is controlled through
the ECM. This allows the ECM to modify the idle air
control position prior to the A/C clutch engagement for
better idle quality. If the engine operating conditions are
within their specified calibrated acceptable ranges, the
ECM will enable the A/C compressor relay. This is done
by providing a ground path for the A/C relay coil within
the ECM. When the A/C compressor relay is enabled,
battery voltage is supplied to the compressor relay is
enabled, battery voltage is supplied to the compressor
clutch coil.
The ECM will enable the A/C compressor clutch
whenever the engine is running and the A/C has been
requested. The ECM will not enable the A/C
compressor clutch if any of the following conditions are
met:
• The engine speed is greater than 6000 RPM.
• The ECT is greater than 122°C (251°F).
• The throttle is more than 95% open.
A/C Clutch Circuit Purpose
The A/C compressor operation is controlled by the
engine control module (ECM) for the following reasons:
• It improves idle quality during compressor clutch engagement.
• It improves wide open throttle (WOT) performance.
• It provides A/C compressor protection from operation with incorrect refrigerant pressures.
The A/C electrical system consists of the following
components:
• The A/C control switch.
• The A/C refrigerant pressure switches.
• The A/C compressor clutch.
• The A/C compressor clutch relay.
•The ECM.
A/C Request Signal
This signal tells the ECM when the A/C mode is
selected at the A/C control switch. The ECM uses this
input to adjust the idle speed before turning on the A/C
clutch. The A/C compressor will be inoperative if this
signal is not available to the ECM.
Refer to A/C Clutch Circuit Diagnosis for A/C wiring
diagrams and diagnosis for the A/C electrical system.

Diagnostic Thought Process
As you follow a diagnostic plan, every box on the
Strategy Based Diagnostics chart requires you to use
the diagnostic thought process. This method of thinking
optimizes your diagnosis in the following ways:
• Improves your understanding and definition of the customer complaint
• Saves time by avoiding testing and/or replacing good parts
• Allows you to look at the problem from different perspectives
• Guides you to determine what level of understanding about system operation is needed:
– Owner’s manual level
– Service manual level
– In-depth (engineering) level – Owner’s manual level
– Service manual level
– In-depth (engineering) level
1. Verify the Complaint
What you should do
To verify the customer complaint, you need to know the
correct (normal) operating behavior of the system and
verify that the customer complaint is a valid failure of the
system.
The following information will help you verify the
complaint:
• WHAT the vehicle model/options are
• WHAT aftermarket and dealer-installed accessories exist
• WHAT related system(s) operate properly
• WHEN the problem occurs
• WHERE the problem occurs
• HOW the problem occurs
• HOW LONG the condition has existed (and if the system ever worked correctly)
• HOW OFTEN the problem occurs
• Whether the severity of the problem has increased, decreased or stayed the same
What resources you should use
Whenever possible, you should use the following
resources to assist you in verifying the complaint:
• Service manual Theory or Circuit Description sections
• Service manual “System Performance Check”
• Owner manual operational description
• Technician experience
• Identical vehicle for comparison • Circuit testing tools
• Vehicle road tests
• Complaint check sheet
• Contact with the customer
2. Perform Preliminary Checks
NOTE: An estimated 10 percent of successful vehicle
repairs are diagnosed with this step!
What you should do
You perform preliminary checks for several reasons:
• To detect if the cause of the complaint is VISUALLY OBVIOUS
• To identify parts of the system that work correctly
• To accumulate enough data to correctly and accurately search for a ISUZU Service Bulletin on
ISUZU Web site.
The initial checks may vary depending on the
complexity of the system and may include the following
actions:
• Operate the suspect system
• Make a visual inspection of harness routing and accessible/visible power and ground circuits
• Check for blown fuses
• Make a visual inspection for separated connectors
• Make a visual inspection of connectors (includes checking terminals for damage and tightness)
• Check for any DTCs stored by the on-board computers
• Sense unusual noises, smells, vibrations or movements
• Investigate the vehicle service history (call other dealerships, if appropriate)
What resources you should use
Whenever appropriate, you should use the following
resources for assistance in performing preliminary
checks:
• Tech II or other technical equipment for viewing DTCs
• Service manual information: – Component locations
– Harness routing
– Wiring schematics
– Procedures for viewing DTCs
• Dealership service history file
• Vehicle road test
• Identical vehicle or system for comparison

6E–64 ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
– Are there areas subjected to vibration ormovement (engine, transmission or
suspension)?
– Are there areas exposed to moisture, road salt or other corrosives (battery acid, oil or other
fluids)?
– Are there common mounting areas with other systems/components?
– Have previous repairs been performed to wiring, connectors, components or mounting areas
(causing pinched wires between panels and
drivetrain or suspension components without
causing and immediate problem)?
– Does the vehicle have aftermarket or dealer- installed equipment (radios, telephone, etc.)
Step 2: Isolate the problem
At this point, you should have a good idea of what could
cause the present condition, as well as could not cause
the condition. Actions to take include the following:
• Divide (and separate, where possible) the system or circuit into smaller sections
• Confine the problem to a smaller area of the vehicle (start with main harness connections while removing
panels and trim as necessary in order to eliminate
large vehicle sections from further investigation)
• For two or more circuits that do not share a common power or ground, concentrate on areas where
harnesses are routed together or connectors are
shared (refer to the following hints)
Hints
Though the symptoms may vary, basic electrical failures
are generally caused by:
• Loose connections: – Open/high resistance in terminals, splices,connectors or grounds
• Incorrect connector/harness routing (usually in new vehicles or after a repair has been made):
– Open/high resistance in terminals, splices, connectors of grounds
• Corrosion and wire damage:
– Open/high resistance in terminals, splices,connectors of grounds
• Component failure: – Opens/short and high resistance in relays,modules, switches or loads
• Aftermarket equipment affecting normal operation of other systems
You may isolate circuits by:
• Unplugging connectors or removing a fuse to separate one part of the circuit from another part
• Operating shared circuits and eliminating those that function normally from the suspect circuit
• If only one component fails to operate, begin testing at the component
• If a number of components do no operate, begin tests at the area of commonality (such as power sources,
ground circuits, switches or major connectors)
What resources you should use
Whenever appropriate, you should use the following
resources to assist in the diagnostic process:
• Service manual
• Technical equipment (for data analysis)
• Experience
• Technical Assistance
• Circuit testing tools
5d. Intermittent Diagnosis
By definition, an intermittent problem is one that does
not occur continuously and will occur when certain
conditions are met. All these conditions, however, may
not be obvious or currently known. Generally,
intermittents are caused by:
• Faulty electrical connections and wiring
• Malfunctioning components (such as sticking relays, solenoids, etc.)
• EMI/RFI (Electromagnetic/radio frequency interference)
• Aftermarket equipment
Intermittent diagnosis requires careful analysis of
suspected systems to help prevent replacing good
parts. This may involve using creativity and ingenuity to
interpret customer complaints and simulating all
external and internal system conditions to duplicate the
problem.
What you should do
Step 1: Acquire information
A thorough and comprehensive customer check sheet
is critical to intermittent problem diagnosis. You should
require this, since it will dictate the diagnostic starting
point. The vehicle service history file is another
source for accumulating information about the
complaint.
Step 2: Analyze the intermittent problem
Analyze the customer check sheet and service history
file to determine conditions relevant to the suspect
system(s).
Using service manual information, you must identify,
trace and locate all electrical circuits related to the
malfunctioning system(s). If there is more than one
system failure, you should identify, trace and locate
areas of commonality shared by the suspect circuits.
