GENERAL
INFORMATION
This
air
conditioner
is
designed specifically
for
con­
ventional
cab
trucks with
the
heater-evaporator
package designed
to fit
under
the
instrument panel.
The system
is
manually controlled
by the
operator. Controls have been kept simple
for
ease
of
service and operation. In
the
blend
air
reheat
air
conditioning unit,
all

the
air
entering
the
system passes through
the
evap­ orator.
A
selected portion passes through
the
heater
core depending
on the
position
of the
blend
air
door.
The system controls
are
located
in the
center
of the
instrument panel within easy reach
of the
driver.
The combination electrical
and
vacuum switch con­
trols
the
compressor clutch, mode
of
operation
and

blower. Modes
are Off, Max. A/C, A/C,
Vent, Heat and Defrost.
A
4-speed blower motor switch controls
the amount
of air
flow.
The
evaporator-heater pack­ age includes:
•
The
blower motor. • Intake duct with outside
air
recirculating door.
• Evaporator coil
• Heater core.
• Defroster discharge doors.
• Blower motor speed resistors.
• Vacuum harness.
• Vacuum actuators.
•
A/C air
outlets
to the
distribution ducts. Defrost, Heat,
A/C and
Vent modes automatically
supply
100%
outside
air.
The
air
distribution ducts supply
air
from
the
unit
to
4
panel mounted, fully directional, outlets.
The
faceplate
has 2
outlets
and 2 are
snapped into
the

panel
on the
right side. Satisfactory performance
of the air
conditioning
and heating system
is
dependent upon correct opera­
tion
and
adjustment
of all
operating controls.
The in­
spections, tests
and
adjustments should
be
used
to

locate
the
cause
of a
malfunction.

VACUUM CONTROLS
AND
CIRCUITS
For an explanation of the vacuum and electrical
logic that controls the operation of the unit (Fig. 1
and Control Chart). MODES—The vacuum and electrical logic is deter­
mined by the push button switch. The vacuum por­
tion of the switch controls the water valve and
positions all doors in the unit except the blend air
door. The electrical portion of the switch controls the compressor and blower operation. The following is a
breakdown of the vacuum and electrical logic for each mode. Refer to Control Chart in this section.
OFF Vacuum application is as indicated in Fig. 1. The
inlet air door is closed to outside, open to recirculat­
ing air. The mode door is in the A/C position. The
Heat/Defrost door is in the Heat position. The heater core coolant flow is
shut-off.

No air flows through the unit and the compressor
is idle because the blower and compressor clutch cir­
cuits are open.
MAX A/C All of the doors are in the same position as they
are in Off. The Max. A/C mode merely closes the
electrical circuits to the blower motor and the com­
pressor clutch. This mode is recommended for initial cool down, extreme outside humidity or high ambient
temperature.

A/C
This mode is recommended for use after the vehicle
has been cooled to the desired temperature. The vac­
uum application at the outside-recirculating air door actuator is transferred to the rod side. This moves
the door away from the outside-air inlet and closes
the recirculating inlet. The water valve is open. All
other vacuum applications and door positions are the
same for the Max. A/C position. The blower motor and compressor are on.
VENT The vacuum circuit remains the same as in the
A/C position but the compressor clutch electrical cir­
cuit is opened, preventing the compressor from oper­ ating. The blower motor is used to force outside air
into the passenger compartment through the A/C
outlets in the instrument panel.

HEAT
In the Heat mode the outside air door is open same
as A/C mode. Vacuum is applied to the top side of the air condi­
tioning door actuator. This will close off the passage
to the air conditioning distribution duct and open the
passage to the heater/defroster duct. Since the heat­ er-defroster door is in the heat position, the full flow
of heated air goes through the heater outlets. A
small amount of heated air will bleed through the
defroster outlets. The water valve is open, the blower
switch is activated and the compressor is off.
DEFROST When the defrost mode is selected all conditions
are the same as for heater operation, except that no
vacuum is applied to the defrost door actuator. The defrost door is spring loaded to the defrost position.
The door opens the defroster outlets and partially closes off the heater outlets. The heater outlets are
left open far enough to direct about 30 percent of the
air to the floor. The other 70% is defrost air directed
to the windshield area. The compressor clutch will be engaged.

ELECTRICAL CONTROLS AND CIRCUITS
The electrical feed for the air conditioning circuit is
from 2 fuses in the fuse block. A 20 ampere fuse pro­
tects the compressor clutch circuit, and a 30 ampere fuse protects the blower motor control circuit.

CONTROL TEST
Test operation of controls in the following manner.
(1) Inspect compressor drive belt. Adjust, if neces­
sary. (2) Start engine. (3) Move temperature lever to extreme left (cool)
position. (4) Push A/C button.

(5)
Refer to Control Chart. Check position of doors,
operation of compressor clutch, blower motor and wa­
ter valve. The water valve is open when there is no
vacuum to valve. (6) Check blower switch by moving it to all 4 posi­
tions and noting air flow change. In case of malfunc­
tion refer to Electrical Control Circuit. (7) Check operation of blend air door by moving
temperature lever from full warm toward cool posi­
tion. Discharge air temperature should change with lever movement if the engine coolant is warm. (8) Repeat steps 5 and 6 in each push-button posi­
tion. If actuation of the doors is slow or incomplete,
check for mechanical misalignment, binding or vac­ uum leaks. The air conditioning door has a seven
second vacuum delay in mode switching from Off,
Max A/C, A/C, or Vent to Heat or Defrost. Check
temperature control cable for correct adjustment.

GENERAL
INFORMATION

Throughout this group, references are made
to
par­
ticular vehicle models
by
alphabetical designation
or

by the particular vehicle nameplate.
A
chart showing a breakdown
of
alphabetical designations
is
included
in
the
Introduction section
at
the
beginning
of
this
manual.
The 5.9L (V-8) gas powered engine will
be
referred
to
in
this group
as
either the: LDC (Light Duty Cy­ cle)
or
HDC (Heavy Duty Cycle) engine.
The
HDC
engine can
be
easily identified
by
the
use
of
an en­

gine mounted
air
injection pump. The 3.9L/5.2L/5.9L
LDC engine will not use
an
air
injection pump.
Maintenance requirements for LDC and HDC emis­
sion systems differ because
of
different load
and
op­
erating conditions. This section will cover emission control systems
for

the 3.9L (V-6), 5.2L (V-8), 5.9L LDC (V-8), 5.9L HDC (V-8) and 5.9L (in-line six cylinder) diesel engines.

SERVICE
REMINDER INDICATOR
(SRI)
LIGHT
The instrument panel mounted SRI light was for­
merly referred
to as the
emission maintenance
re­
minder (EMR) light.
It is
used with 5.9L HDC-gas
powered engines only.
It is
not
used with diesel
en­
gines.

The SRI system
is
incorporated into the powertrain
control module (PCM)
(the
PCM
was
formerly
re­

ferred
to as the
engine controller
or
SBEC).
The

PCM records
the
vehicles mileage and stores
it
into
memory every
8
miles. At that time, the PCM checks
for the 60,000 and 82,500 mileage trip points. When
the current mileage matches one
of
the above men­
tioned trip points,
the
SRI light
is
activated.
The following parts are
to
be replaced
at
either the
indicated mileage
or
when the SRI light remains
on

when the key
is in
the ON position. After performing
the required maintenance,
the
SRI light must
be
re­ set
to
turn the light
off.

96,000
