A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH
DESCRIPTION
The compressor clutch assembly consists of a sta-
tionary electromagnetic coil, a hub bearing and pul-
ley assembly, and a clutch plate (Fig. 4). The
electromagnetic coil unit and the hub bearing and
pulley assembly are each retained on the nose of the
compressor front housing with snap rings. The clutch
plate is keyed to the compressor shaft and secured
with a bolt.
OPERATION
The compressor clutch components provide the
means to engage and disengage the compressor from
the engine serpentine accessory drive belt. When the
clutch coil is energized, it magnetically draws the
clutch into contact with the pulley and drives the
compressor shaft. When the coil is not energized, the
pulley freewheels on the clutch hub bearing, which is
part of the pulley. The compressor clutch and coil are
the only serviced parts on the compressor.
The compressor clutch engagement is controlled by
several components: the a/c switch on the a/c heater
control panel, the Automatic Zone Control (AZC) con-
trol module (if the vehicle is so equipped), the evap-
orator probe, the a/c high pressure transducer, the
a/c compressor clutch relay, the body control module
(BCM) and the Powertrain Control Module (PCM).
The PCM may delay compressor clutch engagement
for up to thirty seconds. Refer to Electronic Control
Modules for more information on the PCM controls.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMPRESSOR
CLUTCH COIL
For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to the
appropriate wiring diagrams. The battery must be
fully-charged before performing the following tests.
Refer to Battery for more information.
(1) Connect an ammeter (0 to 10 ampere scale) in
series with the clutch coil terminal. Use a voltmeter
(0 to 20 volt scale) with clip-type leads for measuring
the voltage across the battery and the compressor
clutch coil.
(2) With the a/c heater mode control switch in any
a/c mode, the a/c heater control a/c switch in the ON
position, and the blower motor switch in the lowest
speed position, start the engine and run it at normal
idle.
(3) The compressor clutch coil voltage should read
within 0.2 volts of the battery voltage. If there is
voltage at the clutch coil, but the reading is not
within 0.2 volts of the battery voltage, test the clutch
coil feed circuit for excessive voltage drop and repair
as required. If there is no voltage reading at the
clutch coil, use a DRBIIItscan tool and the appro-
priate diagnostic information for testing of the com-
pressor clutch circuit. The following components
must be checked and repaired as required before you
can complete testing of the clutch coil:
²Fuses in the junction block and the Power Dis-
tribution Center (PDC)
²A/C heater mode control switch
²A/C compressor clutch relay
²A/C high pressure transducer
²A/C evaporator probe
²Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
²Body Control Module (BCM)
(4) The compressor clutch coil is acceptable if the
current draw measured at the clutch coil is 2.0 to 3.9
amperes with the electrical system voltage at 11.5 to
12.5 volts. This should only be checked with the work
area temperature at 21É C (70É F). If system voltage
is more than 12.5 volts, add electrical loads by turn-
ing on electrical accessories until the system voltage
drops below 12.5 volts.
(a) If the clutch coil current reading is four
amperes or more, the coil is shorted and should be
replaced.
(b) If the clutch coil current reading is zero, the
coil is open and should be replaced.

(7) Remove the external snap ring that secures the
compressor clutch coil to the nose of the compressor
front housing with snap ring pliers and slide the coil
assembly off of the compressor (Fig. 8).
INSPECTION
Examine the friction surfaces of the clutch pulley
and the clutch plate for wear. The pulley and plate
should be replaced if there is excessive wear or scor-
ing.
If the friction surfaces are oily, inspect the shaft
and nose area of the compressor for refrigerant oil.
Remove the felt wick from around the shaft inside
the nose of the compressor front housing. If the felt
is saturated with refrigerant oil, the compressor
shaft seal is leaking and the compressor must be
replaced.
Check the clutch pulley bearing for roughness or
excessive leakage of grease. Replace the bearing, if
required.
INSTALLATION
(1) Align the dowel pin on the back of the clutch
field coil with the hole in the compressor front hous-
ing and press the field coil into place over the nose of
the compressor.
(2) Install the clutch coil lead wire harness retain-
ing clip on the compressor front housing and tighten
the retaining screw.(3) Install the clutch field coil and snap ring with
snap ring pliers (Special Tool C-4574). The bevel side
of the snap ring must be facing outward. Also, both
eyelets of the snap ring must be to the right or left of
the pin on the compressor. Press in on the snap ring
to be certain that it is properly seated in the groove.
CAUTION: If the snap ring is not fully seated in the
groove it will vibrate out, resulting in a clutch fail-
ure and severe damage to the front housing of the
compressor.
(4) Install the pulley assembly onto the compres-
sor. If necessary, place a block of wood on the friction
surface and tap gently with a hammer (Fig. 9).
CAUTION: Do not mar the pulley friction surface.
(5) Install the pulley assembly retaining snap ring
(bevel side outward) with snap ring pliers (Special
Tool C-4574). Press in on the snap ring to be certain
that it is properly seated in the groove.
(6) If the original clutch plate assembly and pulley
assembly are to be reused, the old shim(s) can be
used. If not, place a stack of shim(s) equal to the old
shim(s) on the shaft against the shoulder.
(7) Install the clutch plate assembly onto the
shaft.
(8) With the clutch plate assembly tight against
the shim(s), measure the air gap between the clutch
plate and the pulley face with feeler gauges. The air

open circuit to the fuse in the junction block as
required.
(5) The coil ground terminal cavity (85) is switched
to ground through the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM). There should be continuity between this cav-
ity and the A/C compressor clutch relay control cir-
cuit cavity of the PCM wire harness connector C
(gray) at all times. If not OK, repair the open circuit
as required.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the cover from the Power Distribution
Center (PDC) (Fig. 11).

A/C HEATER CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The manual temperature control HVAC system
uses a combination of electrical, and vacuum con-trols. The Automatic Zone Control (AZC) HVAC sys-
tem uses only electrical controls. These controls
provide the vehicle operator with a number of setting
options to help control the climate and comfort
within the vehicle. Refer to the owner's manual in
the vehicle glove box for more information on the
suggested operation and use of these controls.
Both a/c heater control panels are located on the
instrument panel inboard of the steering column and
below the radio (Fig. 12). Both control panels contain
rotary-type temperature control knob(s), a rotary-
type mode control switch knob, a rotary-type blower
motor speed switch knob and an air conditioning
compressor push button switch. The rear window
defogger push button switch is also located on a/c
heater control panel. The AZC control panel also fea-
tures a recirculation push button switch and a vac-
uum fluorescent display area.
OPERATION
The AZC control module uses infrared sensing
technology to control occupant comfort levels, not the
actual passenger compartment air temperature. Dual
infrared sensors mounted in the face of the control
unit independently measure the surface temperature
to maintain customer-perceived comfort temperature
under changing conditions. Dual Zone temperature
control provides wide side-to-side variation in comfort
temperature to exceed the needs of either front seat
occupant. This sensing system replaces interior air
temperature and solar sensors used to approximate
direct sensing control through complex control pro-
grams.

EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The evaporator probe is a 2 wire temperature sens-
ing element located at the coldest point on the face of
the evaporator. The switch is attached to the evapo-
rator coil fins. The evaporator temperature probe
prevents condensate water on the evaporator coil
from freezing and obstructing A/C system air flow.
OPERATION
The probe is used to switch the clutch OFF before
evaporator freeze-up occurs. Output from the probe is
sampled by the Body Control Module (BCM). The
clutch is switched OFF when the probe temperature
reaches 1.1É C (34É F). It is allowed to switch ON
when the probe temperature reaches 2.2É C (36É F).
