1998 JAGUAR X308 Speed Sensor

The solar sensor is mounted on the top surface of the fascia between the defrost outlets.
The sensor is a photo-diode which is calibr ated to measure direct sunlight. It provides an output signal to the A/CCM which
automatically reduces air temperature an d increases fan speed (airflow volume) to compensate for solar heating.
Evaporator Sensor

This thermistor device changes electrical resistance as a result of temperature variations.
The sensor is positioned next to the evaporator fins and measures air temper ature after it has passed through the
evaporator. The sensor inputs a signal to the A/CCM which controls the compress or (see table) when the refrigeration
system is operating.
The sensor's connector is located on the LH side of the air conditioning unit, in front of the main power connector.
The A/CCM disengages the compressor clutch when the temperature of the air off the evaporator is 2° C or less. This is to
prevent the moisture which may collect between the cooling fins of the evaporator from freezing and thus restricting airflow.

other sensors. This feature prevents the effects of sudden changes in air outlet temperatures due to factors such as:
Recirculating air from the engine cooling pack at low vehicle speeds Sudden changes in ambient temperature The effects of water splash
Motorised In-car Aspirator.

An intake grille (mounted on the fascia , outboard of the steering column and below the EOD vent) houses the aspirator
thermister. The remotely mounted motor / fan assembly draws ca bin air through the grille and thus over the thermistor; a
flexible hose connects both components.
The electrical resistance of the thermistor changes in response to variations in air temperatur e, this change being converted
into an electrical signal. The A/CCM uses this signal to adjust the temperature, airflow and air distribution from the air
conditioning unit.
Coolant Temperature Signal.
This signal is supplied to the A/CCM from the instrument cluster, the input being required to:
Provide blower inhibit control , to avoid the system in heat ing mode delivering cold air when the coolant temperature is below 35°C unless DEFROST is selected. To progressively increase the fan speed up to maximum blower speed during warm up control. To assist in the control of the outlet temperature. To avoid possible pump or valve damage ca used by ice particles in the coolant.
Compressor ON Signal.
This signal monitors the compressor relay to confirm the compressor operating state and so provide relevant fault
information.
Servo Motor Control.
Flap position, which directs the flow of air through the system, is controlled by servo motors; these may be driven in either
a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction by signals from the A/ CCM. Motor, thus flap position, is monitored via a feedback
potentiometer which is situated within the motor housing.
Servo motors control the following flaps:

Wiring Harnesses - Wiring Harness
Description and Operation
Introduction
CAUTION: Do not use any other heat shrink sleeve other than the approved glue lined heat shrink sleeve mentioned
in the repair procedure.
The purpose of this document is to promote quick and efficient minor repair to harness connectors or cables using approved
methods and the wiring harness repair kit. Repairs may only be made to cables and connectors which have been
mechanically, not electrically damaged. It also applies wher e the whole extent of the damage can be clearly identified and
rectified.
Care and neatness are essential requir ements in making a perfect repair.
Caution:
At the time of this first issue of the Harness Repair Guide, do not approve re pairs to any of the following circuits:
Any media orientated system transport network harnesses. Supplement restraint system (SRS) firing circuits (Air bags). Link lead assembles, which are unique to safety critical circuits such as anti-lock brake system (ABS) and
thermocouple circuits. An example of this is the ABS wheel speed sensors with moulded connectors.
4. Screened cables, leads and wiring harness(s).
If any harness(s) with defective electrical connector te rminals or wires from the above circuits are a concern,
new components must be installed.
Repair Kit
CAUTION: Where the repair procedure indica tes that a glue lined heat shrink sleeve should be applied, apply sufficient
heat to the glue lined heat shrink to melt the glue in order to provide a water tight seal. Do not over heat the glue lined
heat shrink sleeve so that the wiring harness insulation becomes damaged.
The wiring harness repair kit has been produced which comprises:
Pre-terminated wiring harness(s) of different sizes and types Three sizes of butt splice connectors A selection of colored cable identification sleeves Two sizes of glue lined heat shrink sleeves Crimping pliers A wire cutter and insulation stripper An electrical connector terminal extraction handle and tips
A suitable heat source, fo r shrinking heat shrink sleeves will be required.
The pre-insulated diamond grip range of el ectrical connector terminals and in-line, butt splice connectors contained within
the wiring harness repair kit are the only acceptable product for the repairs of wi ring harnesses. The butt connectors not
only grip the wire but also the insu lation, making a very secure joint.
If an electrical connector terminal is not included in the wiring harness repair kit then approval for the repair is NOT given
and in these circumstances a new wi ring harness must be installed.
Pre-Terminated Wiring Harness( s) and Butt Splice Connectors
All pre-terminated wiring harness(s) and butt splice connectors in the wiring harness repair kit are contained in bags which
can be resealed after use. Each bag is marked with the part number of the items stored within the bag. Each storage
compartment in the wiring harness repair kit is identified with the corresponding part number. Make sure that pre-
terminated wiring harness(s) and connectors are not mixed up it is advisable to only open one bag at a time and to reseal
