PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT B
PRE-TENSIONER" INFOID:0000000012786632

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along C
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WARNING: D
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, it is recommended that all mainte-
nance and repair be performed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer. E
• Improper repair, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injury
caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag Module,
see the SR section.
F
• Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.

• When working near the Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the H
Ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s)
with a hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly
causing serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the HAC
battery or batteries, and wait at least three minutes before performing any service.
Precaution for Work INFOID:0000000012786633
J
• When removing or disassembling each component, be careful not to damage or deform it. If a component
may be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with a shop cloth.
• When removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure to wrap the component K
with a shop cloth or vinyl tape to protect it.
• Protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and prevent them from being dropped.
• Replace a deformed or damaged clip.
L
• If a part is specified as a non-reusable part, always replace it with a new one.
• Be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely to the specified torque.
• After installation is complete, be sure to check that each part works properly.
• Follow the steps below to clean components: M
- Water soluble dirt:
• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the dirty area.
• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.
N
- Oily dirt:
• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water with mild detergent (concentration: within 2 to 3%) and wipe the dirty
area.
• Then dip a cloth into fresh water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the detergent off. O
• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.
- Do not use organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline.
- For genuine leather seats, use a genuine leather seat cleaner. P
Working with HFC-134a (R-134a) INFOID:0000000012786634

WARNING:
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. If the refrigerants
are mixed compressor failure is likely to occur. Refer to HA-25, "Inspection". To determine the purity
of HFC-134a (R-134a) in the vehicle and recovery tank, use Refrigerant Recovery/Recycling Recharg-
ing equipment and Refrigerant Identifier.

Revision: December 2015 HAC-5 2016 Sentra NAM


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER]
• Use only specified oil for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) components. If
oil other than that specified is used, compressor failure is likely to occur.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) oil rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The following
handling precautions must be observed:
- When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component to
minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere.
- When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until just
before connecting the components. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible
to minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Only use the specified oil from a sealed container. Immediately reseal containers of oil. Without
proper sealing, oil will become moisture saturated and should not be used.
- Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat.
Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the A/C system using certified service equipment meeting require-
ments of SAE J2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment], or J2209 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recy-
cling equipment], If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming
service. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and oil manufac-
turers.
- Do not allow A/C oil to come in contact with styrofoam parts. Damage may result.
CONTAMINATED REFRIGERANT
If a refrigerant other than pure HFC-134a (R-134a) is identified in a vehicle, your options are:
• Explain to the customer that environmental regulations prohibit the release of contaminated refrigerant into
the atmosphere.
• Explain that recovery of the contaminated refrigerant could damage your service equipment and refrigerant
supply.
• Suggest the customer return the vehicle to the location of previous service where the contamination may
have occurred.
• If you choose to perform the repair, recover the refrigerant using only dedicated equipment and contain-
ers. Do not recover contaminated refrigerant into your existing service equipment. If your facility does
not have dedicated recovery equipment, you may contact a local refrigerant product retailer for available ser-
vice. This refrigerant must be disposed of in accordance with all federal and local regulations. In addition,
replacement of all refrigerant system components on the vehicle is recommended.
• If the vehicle is within the warranty period, the air conditioner warranty is void. Please contact NISSAN Cus-
tomer Affairs for further assistance.
Precaution for Service Equipment INFOID:0000000012786635

Component Description INFOID:0000000012786639

Component Description
A/C auto amp. controls front automatic air conditioning system by inputting and calculating signals
A/C auto amp.
from each sensor and each switch.
Vaporized refrigerant is drawn into the A/C compressor from the evaporator, where it is compressed
A/C Compressor to a high pressure, high temperature vapor. The hot, compressed vapor is then discharged to the con-
denser.
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
A/C switch assembly
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.
The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled
Air mix door motor LH by the A/C auto amp. based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor LH re-
ceives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled
Air mix door motor RH by the A/C auto amp. based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor RH re-
ceives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
The ambient sensor measures the temperature of the air surrounding the vehicle. The sensor uses a
Ambient sensor thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor
decreases as temperature increases.
The BCM receives the fan ON and A/C ON signals from the A/C auto amp. and sends a compressor
BCM
ON request to the ECM.
Blower motor The blower motor varies the speed at which the air flows through the ventilation system.
The blower motor relay controls the flow of current to fuse 20, 21 and 22 in the Fuse Block (J/B). The
Blower motor relay relay is connected directly to ground, and is energized when the ignition switch is in the ON or START
position.

Revision: December 2015 HAC-10 2016 Sentra NAM


COMPONENT PARTS
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER]
Component Description
A
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,
ECM the ECM transmits the compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R. The ECM shares the refrigerant
pressure sensor signal, engine RPM, and engine coolant temperature with the A/C auto amp. via B
CAN communication line.
Located in the passenger compartment, behind the left lower IP, the Fuse Block (J/B) contains the
Fuse Block (J/B)
blower motor relay and several fuses required for the air conditioner control system.
C
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. At times the A/C
auto amp. may command partial fresh or recirculation based on evaporator or coolant temperatures.
The intake door motor receives position commands from the A/C auto amp. and reports actual door D
Intake door motor
position back via an LCU (Local Control Unit) installed inside the motor. The LCU reads the door po-
sition from a Position Balanced Resistor (PBR), also part of the motor, and returns that information to
the A/C auto amp. The LCU switches the polarity of the circuits connected to the DC motor to drive
the motor forward or backward as requested by the A/C auto amp. E
The intake sensor measures the temperature of the front evaporator fins. The sensor uses a ther-
Intake sensor mistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor de-
creases as temperature increases. F
In-vehicle sensor measures temperature of intake air that flows through aspirator to passenger room.
In-vehicle sensor The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resis-
tance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases. G
IPDM E/R Refer to PCS-7, "RELAY CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description".
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 H
Mode door motor vent door. There are 5 preset positions: VENT, B/L, FOOT, D/F, and DEF. The FOOT position can be
set to allow some airflow through to the defroster vent, or to completely block the defroster vent using
the CONSULT. The mode door motor receives position commands from the A/C auto amp.
HAC
Refrigerant pressure sensor Refer to EC-29, "Refrigerant Pressure Sensor".
Sunload sensor measures sunload amount. This sensor is a dual system so that sunload for driver
Sunload sensor side and passenger side are measured separately. This sensor converts sunload amount to voltage
signal by photodiode and transmits to A/C auto amp. J

perature control dial, according to ambient temperature detected by ambient sensor. C
In-vehicle sensor [in-vehicle temperature correction]
• Passenger room temperature detected by in-vehicle sensor is corrected for each front air conditioning con-
trol (driver side and passenger side). D
Intake sensor (intake temperature correction)
• A/C auto amp. performs correction to change recognition intake temperature of A/C auto amp. quickly when
difference is large between recognition intake temperature and intake temperature detected by intake tem- E
perature sensor. The correction is performed to change recognition intake temperature slowly when differ-
ence is small.
Sunload sensor (sunload amount correction) F
• Sunload amount detected by sunload sensor is corrected for each air conditioning control.
• A/C auto amp. performs correction to change recognition sunload amount of A/C auto amp. slowly when
sunload amount changes quickly, for example when entering or exiting a tunnel. G
Set temperature correction
• A/C auto amp. performs correction to the target temperature set by the temperature control switch so as to
match the temperature felt by the passengers depending on the ambient temperature detected by the ambi- H
ent sensor, and controls it so the in-vehicle temperature is always the most suitable.

DESCRIPTION
• A/C auto amp. changes duty ratio of blower motor drive signal and controls air flow continuously. When air N
flow is increased, duty ratio of blower motor control signal gradually increases to prevent a sudden increase
in air flow.
• In addition to manual control and automatic control, air flow control consists of starting fan speed control, low O
coolant temperature starting control, high in-vehicle temperature starting control and fan speed control at
door motor operation
AUTOMATIC AIR FLOW CONTROL P
• A/C auto amp. decides target air flow depending on target air mix door opening angle.
• A/C auto amp. changes duty ratio of blower motor control signal and controls the air flow continuously so
that air flow matches the target air flow.

SYSTEM
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER]
• When air outlet is VENT or B/L, the minimum air flow is changed
depending on sunload.

JMIIA1129GB

STARTING AIR FLOW CONTROL


• When blower motor is activated, A/C auto amp. gradually
increases duty ratio of blower motor control signal to prevent a
sudden increase in discharge air flow.
• It takes approximately 8 seconds for air flow to reach HI from LOW.

JMIIA1130GB

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.

JMIIA1227GB

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 INFOID:0000000012786643

The intake door is automatically controlled by the temperature set-


ting, ambient temperature, in-vehicle temperature, intake tempera-
ture, 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-vehi-
cle temperature, ambient temperature, and sunload.

DESCRIPTION
• When the compressor activation condition is satisfied while blower motor is activated, A/C auto amp. trans-
mits A/C ON signal and blower fan ON signal to BCM. F
• BCM transmits the A/C ON signal and blower fan ON signal to the ECM via CAN communication line.
• ECM judges that the compressor can be activated depending on the state of each sensor (refrigerant pres-
sure sensor signal and others) and transmits A/C compressor request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN commu- G
nication.
• IPDM E/R turns A/C relay ON and activates the compressor depending on request from ECM.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION CONTROL AT PRESSURE MALFUNCTION H
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.
• 3.12 MPa (31.82 kg/cm2, 452.4 psi) or more (When the engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm) HAC
• 2.74 MPa (27.95 kg/cm2, 397.3 psi) or more (When the engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more)
• 0.14 MPa (1.43 kg/cm2, 20.3 psi) or less
J
COMPRESSOR OIL CIRCULATION CONTROL
When the engine starts while the engine coolant temperature is 56°C (133°F) or less, ECM activates the com-
pressor for approximately 6 seconds and circulates the compressor lubricant once.
K
LOW TEMPERATURE PROTECTION CONTROL
• When intake sensor detects that front evaporator fin temperature is
2°C (36°F) or less, A/C auto amp. requests ECM to turn compres-
L
sor OFF, and stops the compressor.
• When the front evaporator fin temperature returns to 3.5°C (38°F)
or more, the compressor is activated.

AUTO ACTIVE TEST


Description
In auto active test, the IPDM E/R sends a drive signal to the following systems to check their operation.
• Front wiper (LO, HI)
• Parking lamp
• License plate lamp
• Tail lamp
• Front fog lamp (if equipped)
• Headlamp (LO, HI)
• A/C compressor (magnet clutch)
• Cooling fan
Operation Procedure
NOTE:
Never perform auto active test in the following conditions.
• Passenger door is open
• CONSULT is connected
1. Close the hood and lift the wiper arms from the windshield. (Prevent windshield damage due to wiper
operation)
NOTE:
When auto active test is performed with hood opened, sprinkle water on windshield beforehand.
2. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
3. Turn the ignition switch ON, and within 20 seconds, press the driver door switch 10 times. Then turn the
ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON within 10 seconds. After that the horn sounds once and the auto active test
starts.
5. After a series of the following operations is repeated 3 times, auto active test is completed.
NOTE:
• When auto active test has to be cancelled halfway through test, turn the ignition switch OFF.
• When auto active test is not activated, door switch may be the cause. Check door switch. Refer to DLK-109,
"Component Inspection".
Inspection in Auto Active Test

Concept of Auto Active Test
A

AWMIA1509GB F
• IPDM E/R starts the auto active test with the door switch signals transmitted by BCM via CAN communica-
tion. Therefore, the CAN communication line between IPDM E/R and BCM is considered normal if the auto
active test starts successfully.
• The auto active test facilitates troubleshooting if any systems controlled by IPDM E/R cannot be operated. G

DTC/CIRCUIT DIAGNOSIS
U1000 CAN COMM CIRCUIT
Description INFOID:0000000012786669

CAN (Controller Area Network) is a serial communication system for real time application. It is an on-vehicle
multiplex communication system with high data communication speed and excellent error detection ability.
Many electronic control units are equipped onto vehicles, and each control unit shares information and links
with other control units during operation (not independent). In CAN communication, control units are con-
nected with two communication lines (CAN-H line, CAN-L line) allowing a high rate of information transmission
with less wiring. Each control unit transmits/receives data but selectively reads required data only. Refer to
LAN-32, "CAN COMMUNICATION SYSTEM : CAN Communication Signal Chart".

WARNING:
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible. If the refrigerants
are mixed compressor failure is likely to occur. Refer to HA-25, "Inspection". To determine the purity
of HFC-134a (R-134a) in the vehicle and recovery tank, use Refrigerant Recovery/Recycling Recharg-
ing equipment and Refrigerant Identifier.

Revision: December 2015 HAC-114 2016 Sentra NAM


PRECAUTIONS
< PRECAUTION > [MANUAL AIR CONDITIONER]
• Use only specified oil for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) components. If
oil other than that specified is used, compressor failure is likely to occur. A
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) oil rapidly absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. The following
handling precautions must be observed:
- When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component to
B
minimize the entry of moisture from the atmosphere.
- When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until just
before connecting the components. Connect all refrigerant loop components as quickly as possible
to minimize the entry of moisture into system. C
- Only use the specified oil from a sealed container. Immediately reseal containers of oil. Without
proper sealing, oil will become moisture saturated and should not be used.
- Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat. D
Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the A/C system using certified service equipment meeting require-
ments of SAE J2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment], or J2209 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recy-
cling equipment], If accidental system discharge occurs, ventilate work area before resuming
service. Additional health and safety information may be obtained from refrigerant and oil manufac- E
turers.
- Do not allow A/C oil to come in contact with styrofoam parts. Damage may result.
CONTAMINATED REFRIGERANT F
If a refrigerant other than pure HFC-134a (R-134a) is identified in a vehicle, your options are:
• Explain to the customer that environmental regulations prohibit the release of contaminated refrigerant into
the atmosphere. G
• Explain that recovery of the contaminated refrigerant could damage your service equipment and refrigerant
supply.
• Suggest the customer return the vehicle to the location of previous service where the contamination may
H
have occurred.
• If you choose to perform the repair, recover the refrigerant using only dedicated equipment and contain-
ers. Do not recover contaminated refrigerant into your existing service equipment. If your facility does
not have dedicated recovery equipment, you may contact a local refrigerant product retailer for available ser- HAC
vice. This refrigerant must be disposed of in accordance with all federal and local regulations. In addition,
replacement of all refrigerant system components on the vehicle is recommended.
• If the vehicle is within the warranty period, the air conditioner warranty is void. Please contact NISSAN Cus- J
tomer Affairs for further assistance.

Component Description

A/C auto amp.


A/C auto amp. controls front automatic air conditioning system by inputting and calculating signals J
from each sensor and each switch.
Vaporized refrigerant is drawn into the A/C compressor from the evaporator, where it is compressed
A/C Compressor to a high pressure, high temperature vapor. The hot, compressed vapor is then discharged to the con- K
denser.
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
A/C switch assembly L
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 self-diagnostic feature available.
The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled
Air mix door motor by the A/C auto amp. based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor receives M
position commands from the A/C auto amp.
The BCM receives the fan ON and A/C ON signals from the A/C auto amp. and sends a compressor
BCM
ON request to the ECM. N
Blower motor The blower motor varies the speed at which the air flows through the ventilation system.
The ECM sends a compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R based on the status of engine operation
ECM and load as well as refrigerant pressure information. If all the conditions are met for A/C operation, O
the ECM transmits the compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R.
The blower motor relay controls the flow of current to fuse 20, 21 and 22 in the Fuse Block (J/B). The
Blower motor relay relay is connected directly to ground, and is energized when the ignition switch is in the ON or START
P
position.
Located in the passenger compartment, behind the left lower IP, the Fuse Block (J/B) contains the
Fuse Block (J/B)
front blower motor relay and several fuses required for the air conditioner control system.
The intake door motor controls the position of the intake door. Fresh air is allowed to enter the cabin
Intake door motor 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.

Revision: December 2015 HAC-119 2016 Sentra NAM


COMPONENT PARTS
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [MANUAL AIR CONDITIONER]
Component Description
The intake sensor measures the temperature of the front evaporator fins. The sensor uses a ther-
Intake sensor mistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor de-
creases as temperature increases.
Refer to PCS-7, "RELAY CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description" (with Intelligent Key system) or
IPDM E/R
PCS-36, "RELAY CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description" (without Intelligent Key system).
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

Air Flow Control INFOID:0000000012786746

DESCRIPTION
• A/C auto amp. changes duty ratio of front blower motor control signal to control air flow continuously. When
air flow is increased, duty ratio of front blower motor control signal gradually increases to prevent a sudden
increase in air flow.
• In addition to manual control, air flow control is composed of fan speed control at door motor operation.
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. temporarily
reduces fan speed so that mode door moves smoothly.
Air Inlet Control INFOID:0000000012786747

The intake door position is automatically controlled in MAX A/C and DEF modes. The intake door is controlled
by customer input in the other modes.
Air Outlet Control INFOID:0000000012786748

Air outlet control is controlled by customer input. When the A/C is turned off by turning the blower control dial
fully counterclockwise, the A/C auto amp. retains the current selections and returns to these selections the
next time the blower control dial is turned to any fan position.

NOTE:
If ambient temperature is excessively low, D/F is selected to prevent windshield fogging when air outlet is set
to FOOT.
Compressor Control INFOID:0000000012786749

DESCRIPTION
In order for the IPDM E/R to complete a compressor ON request, the following conditions must be met:
1. The BCM detects a Fan ON signal from the A/C auto amp.. The A/C auto amp. grounds the fan ON signal
monitored by the BCM when the blower speed dial is in any of the fan speed positions.
2. The BCM detects an A/C ON signal from the A/C auto amp.. The A/C auto amp. grounds the A/C ON sig-
nal monitored by the BCM when:
- The A/C switch is pressed. The A/C switch LED illuminates and the A/C auto amp. grounds the A/C ON
signal monitored by the BCM. Any mode control button except D/F may be selected.
- The A/C switch is OFF, and the MAX A/C button is pressed. The A/C switch LED will automatically illumi-
nate and the A/C auto amp. grounds the A/C ON signal monitored by the BCM.

Revision: December 2015 HAC-122 2016 Sentra NAM


SYSTEM
< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION > [MANUAL AIR CONDITIONER]
- The A/C switch is OFF, and the mode button for either D/F or DEF is selected. The A/C auto amp. grounds
the A/C ON signal monitored by the BCM, but it does not illuminate the A/C switch LED A
NOTE:
If the compressor was engaged by pressing the D/F or DEF mode buttons, and the time spent in either mode
exceeds 1 minute, then the compressor stays requested, even when modes other than D/F or DEF are
B
selected, until either:
1. The ignition switch is turned OFF.
2. The blower speed dial is turned completely counterclockwise to the OFF position.
3. The A/C switch is manually turned OFF. C
In other words, the compressor ON request cannot be turned off in D/F or DEF modes.
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE PROTECTION
The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure sen- D
sor, located on the liquid tank on the condenser. The refrigerant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside
the refrigerant line and sends a voltage signal to the ECM. If the system pressure rises above or falls below
the following values, the ECM requests the IPDM E/R to de-energize the A/C relay and disengage the com- E
pressor.
• 3.12 MPa (31.82 kg/cm2, 452.4 psi) or more (When the engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm)
• 2.74 MPa (27.95 kg/cm2, 397.3 psi) or more (When the engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more) F
• 0.14 MPa (1.43 kg/cm2, 20.3 psi) or less
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor. G
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system increases to an abnormal level [more than 2,990 kPa (30.5 kg/
cm2, 433.6 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into
the atmosphere. H
COMPRESSOR OIL CIRCULATION CONTROL
When the engine starts while the engine coolant temperature is 56°C (133°F) or less, ECM activates the com-
pressor for approximately 6 seconds and circulates the compressor lubricant once. HAC

LOW TEMPERATURE PROTECTION CONTROL


• When the intake sensor detects that the front evaporator fin temperature is 1.5°C (35°F) or less, the A/C J
auto amp. requests the BCM to turn the compressor OFF, and stops the compressor.
• When the front evaporator fin temperature returns to 5.0°C (41°F) or more, the compressor is activated.
OPERATING RATE CONTROL K
When the set temperature is other than fully cold or the air outlet is “VENT”, “B/L” or “FOOT”, the A/C auto
amp. controls the compressor activation depending on ambient temperature.

• When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the customer uses the A/C switch assembly temperature con-
trol dial to set the desired temperature.
• The A/C auto amp. calculates the target front air mix door opening angle depending on the selected temper-
ature, intake temperature sensor, engine coolant temperature and rpm, and ambient temperature.
• Front air mix door is controlled depending on the comparison of current front air mix door opening angle and
target front air mix door opening angle.
• Regardless of ambient temperature, the front air mix door is fixed at the fully cold position when the temper-
ature control dial is set at the full cold position and fixed at the fully hot position when the temperature control
dial is set at the full hot position.
