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 engagement is controlled by
several components:
²A/C switch on the A/C-heater control panel
²Evaporator temperature sensor
²A/C pressure transducer
²Air temperature sensor
²CAN bus messages
The compressor clutch is de-energized under any of
the following conditions:
²Blocked compressor (thermal fuse in the pulley)
²Low pressure in the system
²Low evaporator temperature
²Hard acceleration (WOT)
²High coolant temperatures
STANDARD PROCEDURE
A / C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH AIR GAP
If a new clutch plate and/or clutch pulley are being
used, the air gap between the clutch plate and clutch
pulley must be checked using the following proce-
dure:
(1) Using feeler gauges, measure the air gap
between the clutch plate and the clutch pulley fric-
tion surfaces.
(2) If the air gap is not between specifications
(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING -
SPECIFICATIONS), add or subtract shims until the
desired air gap is obtained.
NOTE: The shims may compress after tightening
the compressor shaft bolt. Check the air gap in four
or more places on the clutch plate to verify that the
air gap is still correct. Spin the clutch pulley before
making the final air gap check.
A / C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH BREAK - IN
After a new compressor clutch has been installed,
cycle the compressor clutch approximately twenty
times (five seconds on, then five seconds off). During
this procedure, set the heater-A/C control in the
Recirculation Mode, the A/C button in the on posi-
tion, the blower motor switch in the highest speed
position, and the engine speed at 1500 to 2000 rpm.
This procedure (burnishing) will seat the opposing
friction surfaces and provide a higher compressor
clutch torque capability.
REMOVAL
The refrigerant system can remain fully-charged
during compressor clutch, pulley, or coil replacement.
The compressor clutch can be serviced in the vehicle.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the serpentine drive belt (Refer to 7 -
COOLING/ACCESSORY DRIVE/DRIVE BELTS -
REMOVAL).
(3) Disconnect the engine wire harness connector
for the compressor clutch coil from the clutch coil
wire harness connector on the top of the compressor.
(4) Remove the retainer securing the compressor
clutch coil lead on the top of the compressor.
(5) Remove the bolt that secures the compressor
clutch to the compressor shaft (Fig. 2). If necessary, a
band-type oil filter wrench or strap wrench can be
placed around the clutch plate to aid in bolt
removal.

TIONING/DISTRIBUTION - REAR/A/C EVAPORA-
TOR COVER-REAR - INSTALLATION).
BLOWER MOTOR RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The three rear blower motor relays used for the
rear A/C system are International Standards Organi-
zation (ISO)-type relays (Fig. 11). Relays conforming
to the ISO specifications have common physical
dimensions, current capacities, terminal functions
and patterns. The rear blower motor relays are elec-
tromechanical devices that switches fused battery
current directly to the rear blower motors. The rear
blower motor relays are energized when the relay
coils are provided battery current by the rear blower
motor switch (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CON-
DITIONING/CONTROLS/BLOWER MOTOR
SWITCH - DESCRIPTION).
The rear blower motor relays are located in the
relay block in the rear A/C evaporator housing.
OPERATION
The three ISO-standard rear blower motor relays
are electromechanical switches that uses a low cur-
rent input from the rear blower motor switch to con-
trol the high current output to the rear blower
motors. The movable, common feed relay contact is
held against the fixed, normally closed relay contact
by spring pressure. When the electromagnetic relay
coil is energized, it draws the movable common feed
relay contact away from the fixed, normally closed
relay contact and, holds it against the fixed, normally
open relay contact. This action allows high current to
flow to the rear blower motors.
When the relay coil is de-energized, spring pres-
sure returns the movable relay contact back against
the fixed, normally closed contact point. The resistor

4.2 SAFETY
4.2.1 TECHNICIAN SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: ENGINES PRODUCE CARBON
MONOXIDE THAT IS ODORLESS, CAUSES
SLOWER REACTION TIME, AND CAN LEAD
TO SERIOUS INJURY. WHEN THE ENGINE IS
OPERATING KEEP SERVICE AREAS WELL
VENTILATED OR ATTACH THE VEHICLE
EXHAUST SYSTEM TO THE SHOP EXHAUST
REMOVAL SYSTEM.
Set the parking brake and block the wheels before
testing or repairing the vehicle. If is especially
important to block the wheels on front-wheel drive
vehicles: the parking brake does not hold the drive
wheels.
Some operations in this manual require that
hydraulic tubes, hoses, and fittings, disconnected
for inspection or testing purposes. These systems,
when fully charged, contain fluid at high pressure.
Before disconnecting any hydraulic tubes, hoses,
and fittings, be sure that the system is fully depres-
surized.
When servicing a vehicle, always wear eye pro-
tection, and remove any metal jewelry such as
watchbands or bracelets that might make an inad-
vertent electrical contact.
When diagnosing a Transmission system prob-
lem, it is important to follow approved procedures
where applicable. These procedures can be found in
the service information. Following these procedures
is very important to the safety of individuals per-
forming diagnostic tests.
4.2.2 VEHICLE PREPARATION FOR
TESTING
Make sure the vehicle being tested has a fully
charged battery. If it does not, false diagnostic
DTC's or error messages may occur. It is extremely
important that accurate shift lever position data is
available to the TCM. The accuracy of any DTC
found in memory is doubtful unless the Shift Lever
Test, performed on the DRBIIItScan Tool, passes
without failure.
4.2.3 SERVICING SUB-ASSEMBLIES
Some components of the Transmission system are
intended to be serviced in assembly only. Attempt-
ing to remove or repair certain system sub-
components may result in personal injury and/orimproper system operation. Only those components
with approved repair and installation procedures in
the service information should be serviced.
4.2.4 DRBIIITSAFETY INFORMATION
WARNING: EXCEEDING THE LIMITS OF THE
DRBIIITMULTIMETER IS DANGEROUS. IT
CAN EXPOSE YOU TO SERIOUS OR
POSSIBLY FATAL INJURY. CAREFULLY
READ AND UNDERSTAND THE CAUTIONS
AND THE SPECIFICATION LIMITS.
²Follow the vehicle manufacturer's service speci-
fications at all times.
²Do not use the DRBIIItif it has been damaged.
²Do not use the test leads if the insulation is
damaged or if metal is exposed.
²To avoid electrical shock, do not touch the test
leads, tips or the circuit being tested.
²Choose the proper range and function for the
measurement. Do not try voltage or current mea-
surements that may exceed the rated capacity.
²Do not exceed the limits shown in the table.

*Ohms cannot be measured if voltage is present.
Ohms can be measured only in a non-powered
circuit.
²Voltage between any terminal and ground must
not exceed 500v DC or 500v peak AC.
²Use caution when measured voltage above 25v
DC or 25v AC.
²The circuit being tested must be protected by a
10A fuse or circuit breaker.
²Use the low current shunt to measure circuits up
to 10A. Use the high current clamp to measure
circuits exceeding 10A.
²When testing for the presence of voltage or cur-
rent, make sure the meter is functioning cor-
rectly. Take a reading of a known voltage or
current before accepting a zero reading.
²When measuring current, connect the meter in
series with the load.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Page 2172 of 2305

²Disconnect the live test lead before disconnecting
the common test lead.
²When using the meter function, keep the
DRBIIItaway from spark plug or coil wires to
avoid measuring error from outside interference.
4.3 WARNINGS
4.3.1 VEHICLE DAMAGE WARNINGS
Before disconnecting any control module, make
sure the ignition is9lock9position. Failure to do so
could damage the module.
When testing voltage or continuity at any control
module, use the terminal side (not the wire end) of
the connector. Do not probe a wire through the
insulation: this will damage the wire and eventu-
ally cause the wire to fail because of corrosion.
Be careful when performing electrical tests so as
to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such
mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a
second DTC could be set, making diagnosis of the
original problem more difficult.
When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to
use only a fuse having the correct amperage rating.
The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated
may result in a dangerous electrical system over-
load. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must be
corrected.
4.3.2 ROAD TESTING A COMPLAINT
VEHICLE
Some complaints will require a test drive as part
of the repair verification procedure. The purpose of
the test drive is to try to duplicate the diagnostic
DTC or symptom condition.
CAUTION: Before road testing a vehicle, be
sure that all components are reassembled.
During the test drive, do not try to read
DRBIIITscreen while in motion. Do not hang
the DRBIIITfrom the rear view mirror or
operate it yourself. Have an assistant
available to operate the DRBIIIT.
Road testing is an essential step in the diagnostic
process that must not be overlooked. Along with the
diagnostic information obtained from the DRBIIIt
Scan Tool and the original customer concern, the
road test helps verify the problem was current and
any repairs performed, fixed the vehicle correctly.
Always operate and observe the vehicle under ac-
tual driving conditions.
Just as important as the road test is, there are
preliminary inspections that should be performed
prior to the road test. Always check the fluid leveland condition before taking the vehicle on a road
test. Determine if the incorrect fluid is being used,
improper fluid will result in erratic transmission
operation.
Some of the conditions of incorrect fluid level are as
follows:
²Delayed engagement
²Poor shifting or erratic shifting
²Excessive noise
²Overheating
The next step is to verify that the shift linkage is
correctly adjusted. If the shift linkage is incorrectly
adjusted, a number of complaints can result.
The TCM monitors the Shift Lever Position (SLP)
continuously. If the linkage is incorrectly adjusted,
the TCM will sense a shift lever position that is not
correct for the gear chosen by the driver. This may
cause a DTC to be set.
The following complaints may also be the result of
an incorrectly adjusted or worn linkage:
²Delayed clutch engagement
²Erratic shifts
²Vehicle will drive in neutral
²Engine will not crank in park or neutral
²Gear shift linkage will be able to be shifted
without the key in the ignition
²Not able to remove the ignition key in park
²Parking pawl will not engage properly
The shift linkage should also be adjusted when
replacing the Transmission, repairing the valve
body, or when repairing any component between the
shift lever and the Transmission.
Some questions to ask yourself when performing
the road test are as follows:
²Is the complaint or concern what you think the
problem is, based on the drivers description of the
problem?
²Is the Transmission operating normally, or is
there a real problem?
²When does the problem occur?
²Is the problem only in one gear range?
²What temperature does the problem occur?
²Does the vehicle have to sit over night for the
problem to occur?
²Does the transmission go into Limp-in mode?
