8 No cool air (DESCRIPTION: Magnetic clutch does not operate.)
Among the nine troubleshooting items indicated on the previous page, we see the
item No. 8 to learn how to diagnose Air Conditioner.
Preparatory study
As it’s given the description “Magnetic clutch does not operate”, the trouble is with an
electrical/electronic device. See the Magnetic clutch circuit below. The magnetic
clutch is activated when the PCM ground the coil inside the A/C relay to close the
contact of the relay. Magnetic clutch is grounded through its body; an open circuit
between Magnetic clutch and ground is unlikely occurred. If the magnetic clutch
doesn’t operate with battery voltage applied through the A/C relay, the magnetic
clutch may be faulty. Thermal protector inside the Magnetic clutch opens the circuit
when its temperature is approximately 120 ºC or more.
Look at the diagram above; predict the voltage at each terminal given in the table
below during each status.
