(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.

Set the gauge manifold in place and check whether or not
the pressure at the high-pressure side has become the
dual-pressure switch activation pressure.
(4) Replace the switch if, under ordinary conditions, there is no
continuity.Caution
The condition can be considered to be satisfactory if
there is continuity.
Never increase the pressure in a deliberate attempt to
obtain an abnormally high temperature, because to do
so risks blowing the compressor relief valve.AIR-THERM0 SENSOR AND AIR-INLET SENSOR
If frost forms on the surfaces of the evaporator fins, the cause
might be a malfunction of
air-therm0 sensor.
The temperature of the air-flowing from the evaporator’s outlet
is sensed by the thermistor, and the signals conveying this dataare input to the air conditioner control unit, thus switching the
compressor’s clutch ON or OFF.
This functions when the evaporator’s air-flow is low, or the
evaporator’s fins are clogged by dust, etc., or when the amountof refrigerant is insufficient.
These sensors detect the temperature within the passenger
compartment and the temperature at the cooling unit inlet,
thus causing changes of the resistance value, and this data is
provided to the air conditioner control unit as input.
How to Test the Therm0 Sensor and Air-Inlet Sensor
(1) Disconnect the sensor’s connector at the evaporator case,
and by using an ohmmeter, measure the resistance. The
resistance is normal if it is within the range shown in the
figure at the left; if the resistance is not normal, replace.
(2) If the sensor is normal, there is a malfunction of the air
conditioner control unit, and it should be replaced.

ance value:

25°C (77°F)1,500+150 (52)
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SWITCH
<2.0L DOHC Engine>
The engine coolant temperature switch is connected in series
with the compressor magnetic clutch power relay.
It disengages the compressor when the temperature of
engine coolant rises above
115°C (239°F).This is designed to prevent engine overheating when cooling
air is not sufficient for the condenser and radiator. If the enginecoolant temperature switch operates to disengage the com-
pressor, check for the condenser and radiator surface condi-
tions, belt tension and engine coolant level and correct, if
necessary.
