Abnormal refrigerant pressure [ below 196 kPa (2.0 kgf/cm2, 28 psi)
over 3,140 kPa (32.0 kgf/cm2, 455 psi) ]
8
L±REC
Short to ground or power source circuit in air mix damper position sensor circuit.
9 L±LO Short to ground or power source circuit in air outlet damper position sensor circuit.
10 L±M2 Air mix damper position sensor value does not change even if A/C amplifier signals the
air mix damper control servo motor to operate.
11
L±HI
Air outlet damper position sensor value does not change even if A/C amplifier signals the
air outlet damper control servo motor to operate.
HINT: *1If the room temp. is approx. ±20°C (±4°F) or lower, FACE light may blink even though the
system is normal.
*
2If the ambient temperature is approx. ±50°C (±58°F) or lower, the B/L light may blink even
though the system is normal.
*
3If the check is being performed in a dark place, the LED for DEF (solar sensor circuit abnormal)
could be blinking.
In this case, perform diagnostic sensor check again while shining a light, such as an inspection
light, on the solar sensor.
If the light is still blinking, there could be trouble in the solar sensor circuit. AC±20

HINT: *4Compressor lock (A/C light blink) is indicated only for a current malfunction. (See page AC±38)
To confirm the trouble indication, perform the following steps.
(1) With the engine ON, enter the trouble code check mode.
(2) Press the R/F switch to enter actuator check mode, and set the operation to Step No. 3.
(3) Press the AUTO switch to return to diagnostic sensor check mode.
(4) The A/C light starts to blink after approx. 3 secs.

5The A/C amplifier memorizes the trouble code of the respective malfunction when it occurs
for period of time indicated in the brackets.

CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This sensor detects the coolant temperature and sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier.
These signals are used for warm up control when the engine is cold.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
(See page AC±26).
(See page IN±30)
Check voltage between terminals TW and SG of A/C amplifier connector.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on matrix
chart (See page AC±26). However, if the light is still
blinking, check and replace A/C amplifier.
Check engine coolant temperature sensor.
Replace engine coolant temperature sensor.
Check harness and connector between A/C amplifier and engine coolant
temperature sensor (See page
IN±30).
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Check and replace A/C amplifier.
Remove A/C amplifier with connectors still con-
nected.
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Measure voltage between terminal TW of SG
of A/C amplifier connector at each temperature.
HINT: As the temperature increases, the voltage decreases
gradually.
Voltage:
at 0°C (32°F): 2.8 ~ 3.2 V
at 40°C (104°F): 1.8 ~ 2.2 V
at 70°C (158°F): 1.3 ~ 1.5 V
1. Remove A/C unit (See page AC±80).
2. Remove engine coolant temperature sensor.
Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of en-
gine coolant temperature sensor connector at each
temperature.
HINT: As the temperature increases, the resistance
decreases gradually.
Resistance:
at 0°C (32°F): Below 50 k
at 40°C (104°F): 2.4 ~ 2.8 k
at 100°C (212°F): Over 0.2 k
