MOTORIST ASSURANCE PROGRAM (MAP)
OVERVIEW
The Motorist Assurance Program is the consumer outreach
effort of the Automotive Maintenance and Repair Association, Inc.
(AMRA). Participation in the Motorist Assurance Program is drawn from
retailers, suppliers, independent repair facilities, vehicle
manufacturers and industry associations.
Our organization's mission is to strengthen the relationship
between the consumer and the auto repair industry. We produce
materials that give motorists the information and encouragement to
take greater responsibility for their vehicles-through proper,
manufacturer-recommended, maintenance. We encourage participating
service and repair shops (including franchisees and dealers) to adopt
(1) a Pledge of Assurance to their Customers and (2) the Motorist
Assurance Program Standards of Service. All participating service
providers have agreed to subscribe to this Pledge and to adhere to the
promulgated Standards of Service demonstrating to their customers that
they are serious about customer satisfaction.
These Standards of Service require that an inspection of the
vehicle's (problem) system be made and the results communicated to the\
customer according to industry standards. Given that the industry did
not have such standards, the Motorist Assurance Program successfully
promulgated industry inspection communication standards in 1994-95 for
the following systems: Exhaust, Brakes, ABS, Steering and Suspension,
Engine Maintenance and Performance, HVAC, and Electrical Systems.
Further, revisions to all of these inspection communication standards

required.

Circuit resistance
(voltage drop) out of

settings.
2) Set blower/fan on high speed. Close doors and windows.
Insert thermometer in center vent. Operate system for 20 minutes to
allow system to stabilize. Measure temperature.
3) Discharge air temperature must be 37-44
F (3-7C) at
center vent, with high side and low side pressures within
specification. See A/C SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS table at beginning of
article.
A/C CONTROL UNIT (ACCU)
1) Locate A/C Control Unit (ACCU) on top of evaporator case
and disconnect 10-pin connector. Inspect connector and wiring for
damage. Turn ignition and A/C on. Set temperature control to maximum
cooling and blower switch to high. Using a DVOM set to appropriate
test function, inspect harness side of connector. See Fig. 3. Go to
next step. If all test readings are as specified, replace ACCU.
2) Terminal No. 1 (Green/Yellow wire) is ACCU output. With
A/C and blower motor on, battery voltage should be present when ACCU
has received signals from pressure and temperature sensors confirming
A/C operation is okay.
3) Terminal No. 3 (Green/Blue wire) is ACCU power supply whe\
n
A/C switch is in A/C mode. With ignition and blower on, and A/C switch
at second level setting, battery voltage should be present.
4) Terminal No. 5 (Green/Red wire) is ACCU power supply when\
A/C switch is in ECONO mode. With ignition and blower on, and A/C
switch at first level setting, battery voltage should be present.
Terminals No. 2 and 7 (Black wire) are ACCU grounds. There should be
zero volts at all times.
5) Turn ignition off. Reconnect 10-pin connector. Turn
ignition on. Turn A/C on. Set temperature control to maximum cooling
and blower switch to high. Backprobe 10-pin connector. Go to next
step. If all test readings are as specified, replace ACCU.
6) Terminal No. 10 (Blue/White wire) is air thermosensor
power supply. With ignition, blower and A/C on, approximately 5.5
volts should be present.
7) Terminal No. 8 (Blue/Yellow wire) is air thermosensor
signal. When temperature of evaporator outlet portion is 77
F (25C),
there should be approximately 3.6 volts present.
8) Terminal No. 4 (White/Blue wire) is air inlet sensor powe\
r
supply. With ignition, blower and A/C on, approximately 5.5 volts
should be present.
9) Terminal No. 9 (Yellow/Green wire) is air inlet sensor
signal. When temperature of evaporator outlet portion is 77
F (25C),
there should be approximately 1.5 volts present.

DUAL-PRESSURE SWITCH
Disconnect dual-pressure connector, and connect a jumper wire
across harness connector terminals. Connect manifold gauge set to
system, and check operating pressures. Dual-pressure switch will allow
compressor operation when system pressure is within specification.
When high or low pressure side of dual-pressure switch is at operation
pressure (ON), condition is normal if there is continuity between the
respective terminals. If continuity is not present when switch is ON,
replace dual-pressure switch. See PRESSURE SWITCH SPECIFICATIONS
table.

COMPRESSOR CLUTCH
Disconnect wiring to compressor clutch. Connect battery
voltage directly to A/C compressor clutch wiring harness terminals. If
click is heard, clutch engagement is okay. If click is not heard,
pulley and armature are not making contact. Repair or replace as
necessary.
RELAYS
4-Terminal Relay
1) Remove relay from relay box located in engine compartment.
Using an ohmmeter, check continuity between relay terminals.
Continuity should exist between terminals No. 2 and 4, but not between
terminals No. 1 and 3. See Fig. 6.
2) Connect battery voltage to terminal No. 2, and ground
terminal No. 4. Ensure continuity now exists between terminals No. 1
and 3. If continuity is not as specified, replace relay.
