AC-3
HVAC SYSTEM (AUTO A/C)(DIAGNOSTIC)
General Description
2. General Description
A: CAUTION
1) Never connect the battery in reverse polarity.
Auto A/C control module may be destroyed instant-
ly.
2) Do not disconnect the battery terminals while the
engine is running.
A large counter electromotive force will be generat-
ed in the generator, and this voltage may damage
electronic parts such as auto A/C control module,
etc.
3) Before disconnecting the connectors of each
sensor and the auto A/C control module, be sure to
turn off the ignition switch.
Auto A/C control module may be damaged.
4) Every A/C-related part is a precision part. Do not
drop them.
5) Airbag system wiring harness is routed near the
A/C control panel (auto A/C control module) and
junction box.
CAUTION:
• For airbag system, yellow-colored wiring har-
ness and connectors are all used. Do not use
the electrical test equipment on these circuits.
• Be careful not to damage the airbag system
wiring harness when servicing the A/C control
panel (auto A/C control module) and junction
box.
B: INSPECTION
Before performing the diagnosis, check the follow-
ing items which might affect A/C system problems.
1. BATTERY
1) Measure battery voltage and specific gravity of
electrolyte.
Standard voltage: 12 V
Specific gravity: More than 1.260
2) Check the condition of the fuses for A/C system
power supply and other fuses.
3) Check the condition of harness and harness
connector connections.
2. ASPIRATOR HOSE
1) Turn the ignition switch to ON, and press the A/
C switch.
2) Turn the temperature control dial at maximum
hot position.
3) Press the defroster switch.
4) Turn the fan speed control dial to 4th position.
5) Approach a strip of paper (b) in front of the in-ve-
hicle sensor suction port (a) located in the instru-
ment lower cover, and check that air is being
sucked into the port by seeing the paper moving to-
wards port.
NOTE:
Be careful not to let the paper get sucked into port.
6) If the paper does not move at all, remove the in-
strument panel lower cover <Ref. to EI-40, RE-
MOVAL, Instrument Panel Assembly.> and check
for improper connection of the aspirator hose (a),
in-vehicle sensor and heater unit, and repair them if
necessary.
3. A/C LINE
Check the connection for A/C line (A) and lower
side high-pressure pipe.
4. CONTROL LINKAGE
1) Check the state of mode door linkage.
2) Check the state of air mix door linkage.
3) Check the state of intake door linkage.
