14.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The Air Conditioning electronic Control Module (A/ CCM) located on the right-hand side of the A / C unit, controls the 0 functions of the system.
These functions include:
0 In-car temperature control
0 In-car humidity control (Air conditioning vehicles only)
0 Air flow / volume and distribution
The temperature of the passenger compartment is continuously compared with the temperature selected on the con
- trol panel LCD. A digital microprocessor within the A/ CCM receives the data signals. Comparison of these signals
and those from system temperature sensors and feedback devices results in the appropriate output voltage changes
needed to vary the blend of air flow into the passenger compartment.
The climate control system peripherals communicate with the A/ CCM via three main device categories comprising
of manual inputs, automatic outputs and inputs, as shown
in Fig. 1.

Climate Control Systems
14.2.16 Servo Motor Control
The system incorporates several servo motors which direct the flow of air through the air conditioning system. The
motors are driven by A / CCM signals in either a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction.
Servo motor position is monitored via
a feedback potentiometer situated within the motor housing.
The system servos comprise:
o RH and LH Air intake servos (Fresh / Recirc.).
0 Centre vent servo.
o Defrost (screen vent) servo.
0 Footservo.
0 Cool air by-pass servo.
14.2.17 Blower Motor Control
The A/ CCM controls two blower motors, delivering airflow
to the evaporator / heater unit, at variable fan speeds. The
blower motors are regulated by power transistor modules
which provide linear variation of blower speed; the blower
speed
is increased or reduced progressively in response to
vehicle speed, minimising the ram effect of forward motion.
The blower motors are inhibited when engine coolant tem
- perature is below 30°C and heating is requested.
14.2.18 Differential Control
The differential control is mounted on the facia centre vent. It is used to control the temperature difference between the
upper and lower outlets. Fig.

14.2.19 Heated Rear Window, Door Mirrors and Front Screen
The Heated Rear Window (HRW) function can only be activated with the ignition on and the engine running. Operation of the HRW switch operates the status condition LED on the control panel and switches on the HRWfor approximately 21 minutes. Selection of the HRW also operates the door mirror heaters for approximately 11 minutes. The operation
can be cancelled by switch re-selection or ignition off. System off does not cancel the HRW operation.
The Heated Front Screen
(HFS) function can only be activated with the ignition on and the engine running, and either
‘defrost’ mode selected or HFS selected. Each half, left and right hand split, switches on for approx. 6.5 minutes. The
operation can be cancelled by switch re-selection or ignition off. System off does not cancel the HFS operation.

W: In ambient temperatures below OOC, the system may log fault code 23 because low ambient can cause a tem-
porary low gas pressure. In ambient temperatures above 35"C, the system may log fault code 23 as temporary
high pressure can exist within the system. *
Associated Faults
Other symptoms that may exist without storing fault codes:
Airlock in system.
Water pump inoperative.
Water valve stuck closed.
Faulty engine coolant thermostat.
Broken linkage.
Blower motors

Refrigerant Pressure Switch
(A / C vehicles only)
Test the refrigerant pressure switch and harness continuity between pin 17 (22-way connector) and pin 13 (22-way
connector) A / C CM.
If there are no continuity problems, renew the A / CCM.
If there is no continuity, test the continuity of the switch between black 2-way connector pin 2 and ground (pin 1). Switch should be closed circuit at a pressure of between 2 and 30 bar. If the switch is open circuit, suspect faulty switch
or incorrect gas charge.
If the switch is operating correctly. Inspect the switch harness for open circuit or short circuit to ground. Rectify as
necessary.
Nnfe: In ambient temperatures below O"C, the system may log fault code 23 because low ambient can cause a tem- porary low gas pressure. In ambient temperatures above 35"C, the system may log fault code 23 as temporary
high pressure can exist within the system. *

Differential Potentiometer
Test the 5 volt supply to differential potentiometer between pin 1 and pin 2 (ground) at the potentiometer connector.
If there is no 5V supply, inspect the harness for open circuit or short circuit to ground.
If no harness faults are apparent,
renew the A / CCM.
1ynf9: The A / CCM provides a common 5V output and ground to all servos, ie all servo potentiometers are fed by a 5V rail. If all servos are inoperable check the A/ CCM outputs and harness, renew the A/ CCM.
Check resistance between pins 1 and
2, value should be IOWZ +10% at 20°C.
If the resistance measured falls outside the said limits, renew the potentiometer.
Check resistance between pins 1 and 3 at both maximum and minimum differential potentiometer positions; adjusted
via the variable differential control thumb wheel situated between dash centre face level vents.
