3.9.2.8 HVAC SYSTEM RELAYS
The Integrated Power Module (IPM) houses and
provides power to the A/C Clutch Relay and Front
Blower Motor Relay.
3.9.2.9 EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
An evaporator temperature sensor, located on the
A/C expansion valve under the hood, replaces the
previously used fin sensor.
3.9.2.10 A/C ± HEATER CONTROL
MODULE, SWITCH OPERATION
Power Switch
The Power Switch is a momentary contact switch.
The switch LED illuminates when the switch is on.
The Power Switch setting is remembered during
power down.
Rear Window Defogger Switch
The Rear Window Defogger Switch is a momen-
tary contact switch. Toggling the switch results in
the A/C ± Heater Control Module sending a change
of state message to the FCM to provide rear window
defogger activation or deactivation respectively.
The switch LED illuminates when the switch is on.
Recirculation Switch
The Recirculation Switch is a momentary contact
switch. Toggling the switch on results in the A/C ±
Heater Control Module signaling the actuator to
close the fresh-air door. Toggling the switch off
results in the A/C ± Heater Control Module signal-
ing the actuator to open the fresh-air door. The
switch LED illuminates when the switch is on.
When the Power Switch is off, the A/C ± Heater
Control Module closes the fresh-air door to prevent
outside air from entering the passenger compart-
ment. The recirculation mode will cancel whenever
defrost is requested. Pressing the Recirculation
Switch while in defrost mode will illuminate the
Recirculation Switch LED, but only while the but-
ton is pressed. Under this circumstance, the recir-
culation request will be denied and the fresh-air
door will remain in the fresh position. All door
positions are determined relative to the number of
commutator pulses required to provide full travel of
the door. On command, the A/C ± Heater Control
Module runs the actuator for the number of pulses
corresponding to the desired door position.
A/C Switch
The A/C Switch is a momentary contact switch.
Toggling the switch results in the A/C ± Heater
Control Module sending a change of state message
to the Powertrain Control Module (PCM ± gasoline)or Engine Control Module (ECM ± diesel) to provide
A/C compressor clutch activation or deactivation
respectively. The A/C ± Heater Control Module will
only provide this request if EVAP function is found
acceptable. The Power Switch must be on to make
the A/C switch active. The switch LED illuminates
when the switch is on. The A/C Switch setting is
remembered during power down.
Blower Switch
The rotary Blower Switch has five positions, Low,
M1, M2, M3, and High. The Power Switch must be
on to make the Blower Switch active. Toggling the
Power Switch results in the A/C ± Heater Control
Module sending a request to the FCM to provide
blower motor activation or deactivation respec-
tively.
Blend Switch ± Single Zone
The single rotary Blend Switch has multiple
detents to control the full range of temperature that
the system can produce in any mode. Rotating the
switch results in the A/C ± Heater Control Module
signaling the actuator to move the blend door. All
door positions are determined relative to the num-
ber of commutator pulses required to provide full
travel of the door. On command, the A/C ± Heater
Control Module runs the actuator for the number of
pulses corresponding to the desired door position.
Blend Switch ± Dual Zone
The dual sliding Blend Switches have multiple
detents to control the full range of temperature that
the system can produce an any mode. The upper
slide pot controls the driver-side blend door, while
the lower slide pot controls the passenger-side
blend door. Sliding the switch results in the A/C ±
Heater Control Module signaling the actuator to
move the blend door. All door positions are deter-
mined relative to the number of commutator pulses
required to provide full travel of the door. On
command, the A/C ± Heater Control Module runs
the actuator for the number of pulses corresponding
to the desired door position.
Mode Switch
The single rotary Mode Switch has 13 detents to
either direct airflow to the panel outlets, a mix of
floor and panel outlets, floor outlets, a mix of floor
and defrost outlets, or defrost outlets. Rotating the
switch results in the A/C ± Heater Control Module
signaling the actuator to move the mode door. All
door positions are determined relative to the num-
ber of commutator pulses required to provide full
travel of the door. On command, the A/C ± Heater
Control Module runs the actuator for the number of
pulses corresponding to the desired door position.
