  3.  LH front of vehicle (view with front bumper fascia removed)
No. Component Description
1 IPDM E/R Refer to PCS-5, "RELAY CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description".
2 ECM The ECM sends a compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R based on the status of engine operation and load as well as refrigerant pressure information. If all the conditions are met for A/C operation, the ECM transmits the compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R.
3 A/C Compressor Vaporized refrigerant is drawn into the A/C compressor from the evaporator, where it is compressed to a high pressure, high temperature vapor. The hot, compressed vapor is then discharged to the condenser.
4 Refrigerant pressure sensor Refer to EC-28, "Refrigerant Pressure Sensor".
5 Ambient sensor The ambient sensor measures the temperature of the air surrounding the vehicle. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases.

Component

Description

1 Sunload sensor Sunload sensor measures sunload amount. This sensor is a dual system so that sunload for driver side and passenger side are measured separately. This sensor converts sunload amount to voltage signal by photodiode and transmits to A/C auto amp.
2 Front blower relay The front blower relay controls the flow of current to fuse 17 and 27 in the Fuse Block (J/B).

The relay is grounded when the ignition switch is in the ON position.

3 BCM The BCM receives the fan ON and A/C ON signals from the A/C auto amp. and sends a compressor ON request to the ECM.
4 In-vehicle sensor In-vehicle sensor measures temperature of intake air that flows through aspirator to passenger room. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases.
5 A/C switch assembly The A/C switch assembly controls the operation of the A/C and heating system based on inputs from the temperature control knob, the mode switches, the blower control dial, the ambient temperature sensor, the intake sensor, and inputs received from the ECM across the CAN.

Diagnosis of the A/C switch assembly can be performed using the CONSULT. There is no selfdiagnostic feature available.

6 Variable blower control The variable blower control controls the speed of the blower motor by controlling the ground circuit of the blower motor. The front air control provides voltage to the gate of the variable blower control based on the position of the blower control dial.
7 Intake door motor The intake door motor controls the position of the intake door. Fresh air is allowed to enter the cabin in one position, and recirculated inside air is allowed to enter in the other position. The intake door motor receives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
8 Intake sensor The intake sensor measures the temperature of the front evaporator fins. The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases.
9 Air mix door motor (driver side) The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled by the A/C auto amp. based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor LH receives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
10 Mode door motor The mode door controls the direction the conditioned air passes through the ventilation system.

Through a series of levers and gears, the mode door controls the defrost door, the foot door, and the vent door. There are 5 preset positions: VENT, B/L, FOOT, D/F, and DEF. The mode door motor receives position commands from the A/C auto amp.

11 A/C auto amp. A/C auto amp. controls front automatic air conditioning system by inputting and calculating signals from each sensor and each switch.
12 Air mix door motor (passenger side) The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled by the A/C auto amp. based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor LH receives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
13 Front Blower motor The blower motor varies the speed at which the air flows through the ventilation system.

Air Flow Control

DESCRIPTION

AUTOMATIC AIR FLOW CONTROL

Automatic air flow control

STARTING AIR FLOW CONTROL

Starting air flow control

LOW COOLANT TEMPERATURE STARTING CONTROL

If the engine coolant temperature is 56°C (133°F) or less, to prevent a cold discharged air flow, A/C auto amp. suspends blower motor activation for a maximum of 150 seconds depending on target air mix door opening angle. After this, blower motor control signal is increased gradually, and blower motor is activated.

Low coolant temperature starting control

HIGH IN-VEHICLE TEMPERATURE STARTING CONTROL

When front evaporator fin temperature is high [intake sensor value is 35°C (95°F) or more], to prevent a hot discharged air flow, A/C auto amp. suspends blower motor activation for approximately 3 seconds so that front evaporator is cooled by refrigerant.

FAN SPEED CONTROL AT DOOR MOTOR OPERATION

When mode door motor is activated while air flow is more than the specified value, A/C auto amp. reduces fan speed temporarily so that mode door moves smoothly.

Air Inlet Control

The intake door is automatically controlled by the temperature setting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle temperature, intake temperature, amount of sunload and ON/OFF operation of the compressor.

Intake door automatic control selects FRE, 20% FRE, or REC depending on a target air mix door opening angle, based on in-vehicle temperature, ambient temperature, and sunload.

Air Inlet Control

Air Outlet Control

Air Outlet Control

Compressor Control

DESCRIPTION

COMPRESSOR PROTECTION CONTROL AT PRESSURE MALFUNCTION

When high-pressure side value that is detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is as per the following state, ECM requests IPDM E/R to turn A/C relay OFF and stops the compressor.

COMPRESSOR OIL CIRCULATION CONTROL

When the engine starts while the engine coolant temperature is 56°C (133°F) or less, ECM activates the compressor for approximately 6 seconds and circulates the compressor lubricant once.

LOW TEMPERATURE PROTECTION CONTROL

Low temperature protection control

AIR CONDITIONING CUT CONTROL

When set engine is running is excessively high load condition, ECM requests IPDM E/R to turn A/C relay OFF, and stops the compressor. Refer to EC-45, "AIR CONDITIONING CUT CONTROL : System Description".
