OUTER SWITCH
(1) Disconnect the outer switch connector.
(2) Pull out the shoulder belt farther than its midpoint and checkthe continuity between the terminals.
When the belt is pulled out farther than
approx. the midpoint00
When the belt is not pulled out as far as
approx. the midpoint
NOTE
(1) The above inspection permits verification that the outer
switch turns on when the shoulder belt is properly
engaged with the slide anchor. The “midpoint” in the
above procedure refers to the center of the belt length
between the retractor and slide anchor.
(2) O-O indicates that there is continuity between the
terminals.
BUCKLE SWITCH
(1) Disconnect the buckle switch connector (L.H. only).
(2) Check the continuity between the terminals.

(1) A negative-characteristic thermistor is employed
for the air-therm0 sensor and the air-inlet sensorin order to convert the ambient temperature at
the sensor part to resistance.
The sensor power-supply voltage
(5V) of the air
conditioner control unit is applied to each sen-
sor.
(2) The compressor operation mode changes (fromOFF to ECONO to A/C...) each time the air
conditioner switch is pressed. When the air
conditioner switch is pressed in to the first step,the mode is changed to the ECONO mode (the
indicator illuminates in orange, and the voltage
at terminal 4 of the air conditioner switch
becomes Bv.
When pressed in to the second step, the mode
is changed to the air conditioner mode (the
indicator illuminates in green), and the voltage at
terminal 2 of the air conditioner switch becomes
Bv.Bv: Battery voltage
(3) The output (terminal 4) of the air conditioner
control unit is output when all of the following
conditions are satisfied.
@ The air conditioner switch is ON (ECONO or
A/C mode).
@ The air-therm0 sensor ambient temperature
(evaporator outlet air temperature) is
4°C
(39°F) or higher.
@ The air-inlet sensor ambient temperature
(evaporator intake air temperature) is
4°C
(39°F) or higher.
