EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The evaporator temperature sensor is a switch that
is installed on the top of the expansion valve in the
right rear corner of the engine compartment (Fig.
19). The sensor has a small probe that is inserted in
a small well in the body of the expansion valve that
is filled with a special silicone-based thermal grease.
A small molded plastic push-in retainer secures the
sensor to a threaded hole in the top surface of the
expansion valve. Two terminals within a molded
plastic connector receptacle on the sensor connect it
to the vehicle electrical system through a take out
and connector of the HVAC wire harness.
The evaporator temperature sensor cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The evaporator temperature sensor monitors the
temperature of the evaporator through its connection
to the top of the expansion valve. The sensor will
change its internal resistance in response to the tem-

peratures it monitors. The heater-A/C control module
is connected to the sensor through a sensor ground
circuit and a sensor signal circuit. As the evaporator
temperature increases, the resistance of the sensor
decreases and the voltage monitored by the module
decreases. The module uses this monitored voltage
reading to an indication of the evaporator tempera-
ture. The heater-A/C control module is programmed
to respond to this input by sending electronic mes-
sages to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) over
the Programmable Communications Interface (PCI)
data bus, and the PCM then cycles the air condition-
ing compressor clutch as necessary to optimize air
conditioning system performance and to protect the
system from evaporator freezing. The external loca-
tion of the sensor and the use of a push-in plastic
retainer allows the sensor to be removed or installed
from the expansion valve without disturbing the
refrigerant in the system. The evaporator tempera-
ture sensor is diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan tool.
Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the air cleaner housing from the right
side of the engine compartment.
(3) Remove the windshield wiper assembly from
the vehicle (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/WIPERS/
WASHERS/WIPER MODULE - REMOVAL).
(4) Remove the temperature sensor attaching
screw from the expansion valve.
(5) Pull the evaporator temperature sensor away
from the expansion valve far enough to access the
red release ring on the wiring connector. Push the
red ring toward the connector to release lock and
remove the HVAC wire harness connector from the
temperature sensor.
(6) Remove the evaporator temperature sensor
from the engine compartment. Please note that any
grease removed with the old temperature sensor
must be replaced, failure to do so could result in poor
a/c performance.

INFRARED TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The infrared temperature sensor consists of two
infrared transducers that are concealed behind a
clear lens located near the bottom of the center panel
outlet near the top of the instrument panel center
bezel (Fig. 20). These sensors are used only on mod-
els equipped with the optional Automatic Tempera-
ture Control (ATC) heating and air conditioning
system. A molded plastic connector receptacle on the
bottom of the panel outlet unit is concealed behind
the center bezel. A short, dedicated jumper wire har-
ness routed behind the center bezel connects the sen-
sors directly to the ATC heater-A/C control module
near the bottom of the center bezel. The infrared
temperature sensor is integral to the center bezel
panel outlet unit. The infrared sensors cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
center bezel panel outlet unit must be replaced.

AIR FILTER
DESCRIPTION
A dust and odor air filter is standard equipment on
models equipped with the dual zone or three zone
temperature control systems (Fig. 1). The filter ele-
ment is the same size as the front air conditionerevaporator to ensure ample filtering capacity. A
removable door on the bottom of the front heater-A/C
unit housing below the glove box provides easy access
to the filter element for replacement. Filter replace-
ment is recommended at 24,000 kilometer (15,000
mile) intervals.
REMOVAL
(1) Locate the air filter door on the bottom of the
lower evaporator housing just outboard of the pas-
senger side of the instrument panel center stack (Fig.
2).
(2) Slide the air filter door latch toward the rear of
the vehicle until it engages the opened stop on the
door.
(3) Pull the air filter door straight downward to
disengage it from the air filter opening of the lower
evaporator housing.
(4) Use your fingers to reach through the air filter
opening of the lower evaporator housing far enough
to grasp the air filter.
(5) Pull the air filter straight down and out of the
evaporator housing (Fig. 1).
INSTALLATION
(1) Note the ªAirflowº directional arrow imprinted
on the foam seal around the frame of the air filter.
This arrow should always be oriented towards the
center of the vehicle.
(2) With the air filter ªAirflowº arrow properly ori-
ented, carefully slide the filter fully upward into the
evaporator housing through the air filter opening.

AIR OUTLETS
DESCRIPTION
Based upon the system mode selected, conditioned
air can exit the front heater-A/C unit housing
through one or a combination of the four main hous-
ing outlets: defrost, demist, panel, or floor. Once the
conditioned air exits the unit housing, it is directed
through molded plastic ducts to the various outlets in
the vehicle interior. These outlets and their locations
are as follows:
²Defroster Outlet- A single, centrally mounted
outlet delivers air for defrosting the large windshield.
Because outlet vanes are not needed to direct flow, a
simple, integral grid is molded into the center of the
instrument panel top cover to prevent objects from
falling into the duct. If the defroster outlet is faulty
or damaged, the instrument panel top cover must be
replaced.
²Demister Outlets- There are two side window
demisters that aid in defogging and defrosting the
front door windows. One demister outlet is located at
each outboard end of the instrument panel top pad,
near the belt line at the A-pillars. The demister out-
lets can be removed from the top pad individually for
service replacement.²Instrument Panel Outlets- There are five
panel outlets in the instrument panel, one located
near each outboard end of the instrument panel fac-
ing the rear of the vehicle, and three located near the
top of the instrument panel center bezel. On models
with manual temperature control, all five of these
outlets are fully adjustable. On models with Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC), the center outlet
in the center bezel has fixed vanes because it also
houses the remote infrared temperature sensors for
the front seat positions. The outboard outlets can be
removed individually for service replacement. The
center bezel outlets are serviced as a gang of three
outlets and, on models with ATC, also includes the
infrared sensors.
²Front Door Rear Outlets- A fully adjustable
outlet located at the rear of each front door trim
panel supplies only cooled air to the intermediate
seat passengers. Air is supplied to these outlets from
the instrument panel through ducts in the doors that
use molded seals at the instrument panel to prevent
air leakage. The door ducts are integral to the front
door trim panels. These outlets also incorporate a red
reflector to improve the safety and visibility of an
opened front door to traffic approaching the vehicle
from the rear at night. These outlets can be removed
from the door trim panels for service replacement.
²Front Floor Outlets- There are two front floor
outlets, one located above each side of the floor panel
center tunnel below the instrument panel. These out-
lets are integral to the front heater-A/C unit distri-
bution housing.
²Rear Floor Outlets- Wide rear floor outlets
located under each front seat have integral, fixed
directional dividers to distribute heated air across
the floor for intermediate seat passengers. These out-
lets are integral to the floor distribution ducts routed
under the front floor carpet from an outlet nozzle on
the bottom of the front heater-A/C unit distribution
housing.
REMOVAL - CENTER BEZEL OUTLETS
The three outlets located near the top of the
instrument panel center bezel are serviced only as a
gang of all three outlets. If the vehicle is equipped
with the optional Automatic Temperature Control
(ATC) system, the center outlet of the three has fixed
vanes and also houses the remote front infrared tem-
perature sensors.
