AMBIENT SWITCH
The ambient switch is a temperature sensor located
in front of the condenser behind the grille (Fig. 1).
The ambient switch prevents the compressor from
engaging in cold temperatures. The ambient switch
is a sealed factory calibrated unit. It must be re-
placed if defective.
AMBIENT SWITCH TEST
(1) Disconnect ambient switch wire connector.
(2) Using a suitable ohm meter or continuity
tester, test for continuity across the ambient switch
terminals. (a) At temperature above 10ÉC (50ÉF), the switch
circuit should be complete. (b) Chill the switch with ice to below 10ÉC (50ÉF)
and test for continuity. The switch circuit should
be open, with continuity not detected.
Replace ambient switch if defective.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
(1) Remove the one attaching screw.
(2) Remove the sensor/bracket assembly from the
vehicle. To install, reverse the preceding operation.
CONDENSER FAN CONTROL SWITCH
The Fan Control Switch is located on the plumbing
discharge line at the A/C compressor (Fig. 2). The fan
control switch cycles the radiator/condenser fan on and
off by monitoring the compressor discharge pressure.
The radiator top tank temperature sensor can over ride
the function of the fan control switch. It can cycle the
radiator/condenser fan on and off depending on the
engine temperature.
FAN CONTROL SWITCH DIAGNOSIS
Review Safety Precautions and Warnings before pro-
ceeding. Connect a manifold gauge set to the refriger-
ant system service ports. Work area temperature can
not be below 21ÉC (70ÉF).

WARNING: AVOID RADIATOR/CONDENSER FAN
BLADES WHEN WORKING IN THE RADIATOR
AREA. FAN IS CONTROLLED BY TEMPERATURE
AND CAN START ANY TIME IGNITION IS ON. PER-
SONAL INJURY CAN RESULT.
(1) Disconnect fan control switch wire connector.
(2) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across ter-
minals in wire connector. (3) Connect a suitable continuity tester across fan
control switch terminals. (4) Start engine and set idle at 1300 rpm. The ra-
diator fan should run constantly. (5) Set the A/C controls to A/C and high blower.
(6) If the high pressure gauge reads below 1102
kPa (160 psi) there should be no continuity across
the switch terminals.
CAUTION: Do not allow engine to overheat when ra-
diator air flow is blocked.
(7) Block radiator air flow with a suitable cover to
increase the high side pressure to at least 1585 kPa
(230 psi). Electrical continuity should be detected
across the fan control switch terminals. (8) Remove cover from front of vehicle to allow
high side pressure to decrease. When pressure drops
below 1102 kPa (160 psi), continuity should cease. If fan control switch is defective, replace it.
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
CAUTION: Refrigerant removal is not necessary
when removing the Condenser Fan Control Switch.
However, a small amount of refrigerant will vent
from the switch port. Review the refrigerant han-
dling section of Safety Precautions and Warnings in
the General Information section of this Group.
(1) Disconnect wire connector from condenser fan
control switch. (2) Loosen and quickly rotate the switch counter-
clockwise and separate from the high pressure line
switch port. To install, reverse the preceding operation.
DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE CUT-OUT SWITCH
DIAGNOSIS
The Differential Pressure Cut-Out (DPCO) Switch
(Fig. 3) monitors the liquid refrigerant pressure on
the liquid side of the system. The DPCO is located on
the expansion valve. The expansion valve is black in
color when a variable displacement compressor is
used. The DPCO turns off voltage to the compressor
clutch coil when liquid refrigerant pressure drops to
levels that could damage the compressor. The DPCO
is a sealed factory calibrated unit. It must be re-
placed if defective.
DPCO SWITCH DIAGNOSIS
The work area must not be below 10ÉC (50ÉF) to
test the compressor clutch circuit. (1) With gear selector in park or neutral, and park
brake set, start engine and allow to idle. (2) Raise hood and disconnect DPCO switch con-
nector boot. (3) Using a suitable jumper wire, jump across the
terminals inside wire connector boot. (4) If clutch does not engage, the wiring, fuse, re-
lay, ambient switch, or high pressure cut-off switch
can be defective. Refer to Group 8W, Wiring Dia-
grams. (5) If clutch engages, connect a suitable manifold
gauge set. Read low pressure gauge. At pressure 283
kPa (41 psi) and above, DPCO switch will complete
the clutch circuit. If the low pressure gauge reads be-
low 317 kPa (46 psi), the system is low on refrigerant
charge or empty due to a leak. Refer to Testing For
Refrigerant Leaks in the Refrigerant Service Proce-
dures section. (6) Install connector boot on switch and repeat step
number 3. If the clutch does not engage, replace the
DPCO switch.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL CABLEÐAC/AY MODELS
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
A Temperature Control Cable is used on non-ATC
heat or heater-A/C systems only. ATC (Automatic
Temperature Control) systems use an electrically op-
erated temperature control. Refer to the ATC section
of this Group. (1) Remove the A/C-Heater control panel assembly.
Refer to A/C-Heater Control Replacement in Group
8E Instrument Panel. Disconnect the cable attaching
flag from the A/C-heater control and remove the ca-
ble from control panel.
