FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. SET IN SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press A/C switch for at least 5 seconds.
CAUTION:

If battery voltage drops below 12 V during diagnosis STEP-3, door motor speed becomes slower
and as a result, the system may generate an error even when operation is normal. To avoid this,
start engine before performing this diagnosis.

AUXILIARY MECHANISM: TEMPERATURE SETTING TRIMMER
The trimmer compensates for differences in range of ±3°C between temperature setting (displayed digitally)
and temperature felt by customer.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
1. Begin Self-diagnosis STEP-5 mode. Refer to AT C - 4 6 , "
Self-diagnosis Function" .
2. Press fan control switch (UP) to set system in auxiliary mode.
3. Display shows “61” in auxiliary mechanism. It takes approximately 3 seconds to enable setting operation.
4. Press temperature control switch (driver side) as desired. Temperature will change at a rate of 0.5°C each
time a switch is pressed.
CAUTION:
A decimal point is not indicated during a setup of temperature compensation.
When battery cable is disconnected or battery voltage below 10 V, trimmer operation is canceled. Temperature
set becomes that of initial condition, i.e. 0°C.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Unified Meter and A/C amp. (Automatic Amplifier)
The unified meter and A/C amp. has a built-in microcomputer which
processes information sent from various sensors needed for air con-
ditioner operation. The air mix door motor, mode door motor, intake
door motor, blower motor and compressor are then controlled.
When the various switches and temperature contorol switch are
operated, data is input to the unified meter and A/C amp. from the
display unit / display control unit using CAN communication.
Self-diagnosis functions are also built into unified meter and A/C
amp. to provide quick check of malfunctions in the auto air condi-
tioner system.
Potentio Temperature Control (PTC)
The PTC is built into the A/C and AV switch. It can be set at an inter-
val of 0.5°C in the 18°C to 32°C temperature range by turning tem-
perature control switch. The set temperature is displayed.
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR A/C SYSTEM
SYMPTOM: A/C system does not come on.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Intake door control system components are:

Unified meter and A/C amp.

Intake door motor (LCU)

A/C LAN system (PBR built-in mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor)

In-vehicle sensor

Ambient sensor

Sunload sensor

Intake sensor
System Operation
The intake door control determines intake door position based on the ambient temperature, the intake air tem-
perature and the in-vehicle temperature. When the DEF or OFF switches are pressed or A/C switch is OFF,
the unified meter and A/C amp. sets the intake door at the FRE position.
