A/C Cut Control Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This circuit cuts air conditioning operation during vehicle acceleration in order to increase acceleration per-
formance. During acceleration with the vehicle speed at (AT: 25 km/h (16 mph), MT: 40 km/h (25 mph)) or
less, engine speed at (AT: 1,200 rpm, MT:1,600 rpm) or less and throttle valve opening angle at 60° or more,
the A/C magnet switch is turned OFF for several seconds.

TOYOTA hand±held tester:
1 Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester and check operation of air conditioning
cut control.
PREPARATION:
(a) Connect the TOYOTA hand±held tester to the DLC3.
(b) Turn the ignition switch ON and TOYOTA hand±held tester main switch ON.
(c) Start the engine and air conditioning switch ON.
HINT:
A/C magnet clutch is turned ON.
(d) Select the ACTIVE TEST mode on the TOYOTA hand±held tester.
CHECK:
Check operation of A/C magnet clutch cut when air conditioning cut control is operated by the TOYOTA
hand±held tester.
OK:
A/C magnet clutch is turned OFF.

DTC 23 Pressure Switch Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This pressure switch sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier when the A/C refrigerant pressure
drops too low or rises too high. When the A/C amplifier receives these signals, if outputs signals via the A/C
amplifier to switch off the compressor relay and turns the magnetic clutch off.
