DESCRIPTION
FEATURES
The microprocessor controlled automatic air conditioner is a system whic\
h controls the the cabin air conditioning
automatically using a microcomputer.
The microcomputer senses the air temperature outside and inside the cabin, \
the amount of sunlight, the com-
pressor operating condition and temperature setting, etc. and maintains the optimum blower\
air temperature
and air flow at the intakes and outlets automatically.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1Is diagnostic trouble code output for the engine?
Perform diagnostic trouble code check on page EG±523 or EG±305 .
Repair circuit indicated by the code output.
2Check voltage between terminal VTH of TRAC ECU and body ground.
C
OK
P1. Remove TRAC ECU with connectors still con-
nected.
2. Remove intake air duct.
3. Turn ignition switch on.
Measure voltage between terminal VTH of TRAC ECU
and body ground, when the main throttle valve is turned
from fully closed position to fully opened position by
hand
In addition, as the main throttle valve is turned, the
voltage should increase gradually w ith out interrup-
tion.
Go to step .
3Check for open and short in harness and connector between terminal VTH o\
f TRAC ECU and
terminal VTO1 of ECM (See page IN±33).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
