AIR CONDITIONER CONTROL
FAN SPEED CONTROL
Blower speed is automatically controlled based on temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle tem-
perature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and air mix door position.
With FAN switch set to AUTO, the blower motor starts to gradually increase air flow volume.
When engine coolant temperature is low, the blower motor operation is delayed to prevent cool air from flow-
ing.
INTAKE DOOR CONTROL
The intake doors are automatically controlled by: The temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle
temperature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and ON-OFF operation of the compressor.
OUTLET DOOR CONTROL
The outlet door is automatically controlled by: The temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle tem-
perature, intake temperature and amount of sunload.
MAGNET CLUTCH CONTROL
The ECM controls compressor operation using input signals from the refrigerant pressure sensor (with QG
engine), throttle position sensor and auto amplifier.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
The self-diagnostic system is built into the auto amplifier (LCU) to quickly locate the cause of problems.
Overview of Control systemEJS001Z7
The control system consists of input sensors, switches, the automatic amplifier (microcomputer) and outputs.
The relationship of these components is shown in the diagram below:

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Self-diagnosis Function
EJS001ZH
DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnostic system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to appli-
cable sections (items) for details. Shifting from usual control to the self-diagnostic system is accomplished by
starting the engine (turning the ignition switch from OFF to ON) and pressing OFF switch for at least 5 sec-
onds. The “OFF” switch must be pressed within 10 seconds after starting the engine (ignition switch is turned
ON). This system will be canceled by either pressing A/C switch or turning the ignition switch OFF. Shifting
from one step to another is accomplished by means of turning temperature dial, as required.
Additionally shifting from STEP 6 to AUXILIARY MECHANISM is accomplished by means of pushing (fan)
UP switch.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Automatic Amplifier (Auto Amp.)
The auto amplifier has a built-in microcomputer which processes
information sent from various sensors needed for air conditioner
operation. The air mix door motor, mode door motor, intake door
motor, blower motor and compressor are then controlled.
The auto amplifier is unitized with control mechanisms. When the
various switches and temperature adjustment dial are operated, data
is input to the auto amp. from the AV AND NAVI CONTROL UNIT (or
DISPLAY) using multiplex communication.
Self-diagnostic functions are also built into auto amplifier to provide
quick check of malfunctions in the auto air conditioner system.
Potentio Temperature Control (PTC)
The PTC is built into the multi-function switch. It can be set at an
interval of 0.5°C (1.0°F) in the 18°C (60°F) to 32°C (90°F) tempera-
ture range by turning the temperature dial. The set temperature is
displayed.
