Some vehicles are equipped with an additional
Denso 10S17 A/C compressor mounted to the engine
which is used for the optional rear A/C system and
various add-on A/C systems (Fig. 3).A heater booster is used to aid in warming the
engine coolant. The heater booster system can be
switched on while the vehicle is being driven to help
the engine reach its normal operating temperature
quickly and will help aid in heating up the air within
the passenger compartment quickly when requested
by the operator (Fig. 4).
OPERATION
Outside air enters the vehicle through the hood
opening at the base of the windshield, and passes
through the ventilation housing located in the engine
compartment into the heater housing located behind
the instrument panel. Air flow velocity is adjusted
with the blower motor speed selector thumbwheel on
the A/C-heater control. The air intake openings must
be kept free of snow, ice, leaves, and other obstruc-
tions for the HVAC system to receive a sufficient vol-
ume of outside air.
The automatic temperature control (ATC) system
controls interior temperature by taking actual values
from the temperature sensors and the CAN bus and
comparing them to the nominal value of the temper-
ature control switch. The electric pulsed heater valve
is then energized depending on the requested quan-
tity of heat and an electrically-operated water pump
gives a nearly constant water flow for exact temper-
ature regulation. If the solenoid is not energized, the
coolant circuit to the heat exchanger is fully open. To
control the temperature the solenoid valve is pulsed
by the ATC in periods of four seconds.
The mode control knob on the A/C-heater control is
used to direct the conditioned air flow to the selected
air outlets. The mode control knob operates the mode
doors by cables connected to the mode doors.

BLOWER MOTOR SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The blower motor is controlled by a thumbwheel-
type blower motor control, mounted in the A/C-heater
control (Fig. 17). The switch allows the selection of
four blower motor speeds with the ignition switch in
the On position.
NOTE: The blower motor will operate only at the
lowest speed when the Residual Engine Heat Utili-
zation (REST) function is selected, regardless of the
blower speed setting on the A/C-heater control.
OPERATION
When the ignition is turned to On, the integral
blower motor switch within the ATC A/C-heater con-
trol supplies power to the blower motor switch. The
switch directs power to the individual blower driver
circuits through the blower motor resistor block to
the blower motor and then to ground.
The blower motor switch cannot be adjusted or
repaired, and if faulty or damaged, the A/C-heater
control must be replaced (Refer to 24 - HEATING &
AIR CONDITIONING/CONTROLS/A/C HEATER
CONTROL - REMOVAL).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
BLOWER MOTOR SWITCH
The blower motor switch can be diagnosed by using
the DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to Body Diagnostic Pro-
cedures. For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer
to the appropriate wiring information.
EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The evaporator temperature sensor measures the
temperature of the conditioned air downstream of the
A/C evaporator (Fig. 18). The evaporator temperature
sensor is an electrical thermistor within a molded
plastic case that is inserted into the HVAC housing
near the coldest point of the A/C evaporator. Two ter-
minals within the connector receptacle connect the
sensor to the vehicle electrical system through a wire
lead and connector of the HVAC wire harness.
The external location of the evaporator tempera-
ture sensor allows the sensor to be removed or
installed without disturbing the refrigerant in the
A/C system.
OPERATION
The evaporator temperature sensor monitors the
temperature of the A/C evaporator. The sensor will
change its internal resistance in response to the tem-
peratures it monitors. The A/C-heater control is con-
nected to the sensor through a sensor ground circuit
and a sensor signal circuit. As the evaporator tem-
perature increases, the resistance of the sensor
decreases and the voltage monitored by the A/C-
heater control decreases. The A/C-heater control uses
this monitored voltage reading to an indication of the
evaporator temperature. The A/C-heater control is
programmed to respond to this input by cycling the
A/C compressor clutch off if the evaporator tempera-
ture sensor reads between 1É C (33É F) and 3.5É C
(38É F) to protect the A/C evaporator from freezing.

IN - CAR TEMPERATURE SEN-
SOR
DESCRIPTION
The in-car temperature sensor measures the actual
air temperature within the passenger compartment.
The in-car temperature sensor is located inside of the
A/C-heater control behind a vented panel (Fig. 20)
and is not a separate serviceable component. The
A/C-heater control must be replaced if there is a fault
relating to the in-car temperature sensor.
OPERATION
Air from the passenger compartment flows over the
thermistor of the in-car temperature sensor. The
thermistor changes resistance with air temperature.
The ATC A/C-heater control measures this resistance
and calculates the temperature of the air. The A/C-
heater control then makes adjustments to maintain
the selected passenger compartment temperature.
The in-car temperature sensor cannot be adjusted
or repaired, and if faulty or damaged, the A/C-heater
control must be replaced (Refer to 24 - HEATING &
AIR CONDITIONING/CONTROLS/A/C HEATER
CONTROL - REMOVAL).
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
IN - CAR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The in-car temperature sensor is diagnosed by per-
forming the ATC Function Test using the DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to Body Diagnostic Procedures. For
circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer to the appro-
priate wiring information.

rear A/C control module. The temperature of the cir-
culated internal air of the rear compartment is mea-
sured by a temperature sensor located in the rear
evaporator unit. The value of the temperature sensor
is compared in the rear A/C control module with an
adjusted value at the rear A/C temperature control.
The rear A/C temperature control cannot be
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
REARA/CTEMPERATURE CONTROL
Before testing the rear A/C temperature control,
verify that the front A/C system is operating correctly
by performing the ATC Function Test using the
DRBIIItscan tool. Use a volt/ohmmeter to test the
control. For circuit descriptions and diagrams, refer
to the appropriate wiring information. The wiring
information includes wiring diagrams, proper wire
and connector repair procedures, details of wire har-
ness routing and retention, connector pin-out infor-
mation and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on
vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supple-
mental restraint system before attempting any
steering wheel, steering column, airbag, seat belt
tensioner, impact sensor, or instrument panel com-
ponent diagnosis or service. Disconnect and isolate
the battery negative (ground) cable, then wait two
minutes for the system capacitor to discharge
before performing further diagnosis or service. This
is the only sure way to disable the supplemental
restraint system. Failure to take the proper precau-
tions could result in accidental airbag deployment.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Unplug the wire harness connector from the
rear A/C temperature control.
(3) Check for continuity between terminal 9 and
terminals 3 and 5 of the A/C temperature control. In
all instances, there should be continuity.
NOTE: To check the switch's internal circuits, con-
nect the positive lead of the ohmmeter to terminal 9
and the negative lead to terminals 3 and 5. To
check the switches integral light emitting diode,
reverse the ohmmeter leads.
(4) Check for resistance between terminal 3 and 5
of the A/C temperature control as you move the con-
trol to each temperature position. Resistance should
be present and should change for each position.(5) If OK, test and repair the rear A/C tempera-
ture control wire harness circuits. If not OK, replace
the faulty rear A/C temperature control.

HEATER CORE
DESCRIPTION
The heater core is mounted into the HVAC hous-
ing, located behind the instrument panel (Fig. 14).
The heater core is a heat exchanger made of rows of
tubes and fins. The heater core tubes are attached to
the heater core by using O-ring seals and bolts.
The heater core is serviced by removing and disas-
sembling the HVAC housing.
OPERATION
Engine coolant is circulated through the heater
hoses to the heater core whenever the heater water
valve is cycled open by the ATC A/C-heater control.
As the coolant flows through the heater core, heat
removed from the engine is transferred to the heater
core fins and tubes. Air directed through the heater
core picks up the heat from the heater core fins. The
heater water valve controls the heater output air
temperature by controlling the amount of heated
engine coolant flowing through the heater core. The
blower motor speed controls the volume of air flowing
through the HVAC housing.
The heater core cannot be repaired and, if faulty or
damaged, it must be replaced.
REMOVAL
WARNING: To avoid personal injury or death, on
vehicles equipped with airbags, disable the supple-
mental restraint system before attempting any

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
