DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - COMPRESSOR
CLUTCH RELAY
The compressor clutch relay (Fig. 17) is located in
the Intelligent Power Module (IPM), which is in the
engine compartment near the battery. See the fuse
and relay layout map molded into the inner surface
of the IPM cover for compressor clutch relay identifi-
cation and location. Remove the relay from the IPM
to perform the following tests:
(1) A relay in the de-energized position should
have continuity between terminals 87A and 30, and
no continuity between terminals 87 and 30. If OK, go
to Step 2. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(2) Resistance between terminals 85 and 86 (elec-
tromagnet) should be 75 5 ohms. If OK, go to Step
3. If not OK, replace the faulty relay.
(3) Connect a battery to terminals 85 and 86.
There should now be continuity between terminals
30 and 87, and no continuity between terminals 87A
and 30. If OK, use a DRBIIItscan tool to perform
further diagnosis of the relay circuits. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information. If not OK,
replace the faulty relay.

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.
18). 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 screw allows the
sensor to be removed or installed from the expansion
valve without disturbing the refrigerant in the sys-
tem. The evaporator temperature 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.
INSTALLATION
(1) Position the evaporator temperature sensor
into the right rear corner of the engine compartment.
Please make sure any grease removed with the old
sensor has been replaced before the new sensor is
installed, failure to do so could lead to poor a/c per-
formance.

onto the top of the expansion valve with the sensor
probe inserted into the well in the expansion valve.
(4) Install the temperature sensor retaining screw
and tighten.
(5) Install the window wiper assembly to the vehi-
cle(Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/WIPERS/WASHERS/
WIPER MODULE - INSTALLATION).

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. 19). 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.
OPERATION
The dual infrared temperature sensors provide
independent measurement inputs to the Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC) heater-A/C control mod-
ule that indicates the surface temperature of the
driver seat and front seat passenger seat occupants.
By using a surface temperature measurement, rather
than an air temperature measurement, the ATC sys-
tem is able to adjust itself to the comfort level as per-
ceived by the occupant. This allows the system to
detect and compensate for other ambient conditions
affecting comfort levels, such as solar heat gain orevaporative heat loss. The ATC system logic responds
to the infrared sensor inputs by calculating and
adjusting the air flow temperature and air flow rate
needed to properly obtain and maintain the individ-
ually selected comfort level temperatures of both the
driver and passenger seat occupants. The ATC heat-
er-A/C control module continually monitors the infra-
red sensor circuits, and will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any problem it detects. This
DTC information can be retrieved and the infrared
temperature sensor diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
MODE DOOR ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The mode door actuator is a reversible, 12-volt
Direct Current (DC), servo motor (Fig. 20). The sin-
gle mode door actuator is located on the driver side
end of the heater-A/C housing unit, close to the top of
the distribution housing. The mode door actuator is
mechanically connected to the mode door. The mode
door actuator is interchangeable with the actuators
for the blend air door(s) and the recirculation air
door. Each actuator is contained within an identical
black molded plastic housing with an integral wire
connector receptacle. Two integral mounting tabs
allow the actuator to be secured with two screws to
the heater-A/C unit housing. Each actuator also has
an identical output shaft with splines that connects

it to the linkage that drives the mode door. The mode
door actuator does not require mechanical indexing
to the mode door linkage, as it is electronically cali-
brated by the heater-A/C control module. The mode
door actuator cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
damaged or faulty, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The mode door actuator is connected to the heater-
A/C control module through the vehicle electrical sys-
tem by a dedicated two-wire take out and connector
of the HVAC wire harness. The mode door actuator
can move the mode door in two directions. When the
heater-A/C control module pulls the voltage on one
side of the motor connection high and the other con-
nection low, the mode door will move in one direction.
When the module reverses the polarity of the voltage
to the motor, the mode door moves in the opposite
direction. When the module makes the voltage to
both connections high or both connections low, the
mode door stops and will not move. These same
motor connections also provide a feedback signal to
the heater-A/C control module. This feedback signal
allows the module to monitor the operation and rela-
tive position of the mode door actuator and the mode
door. The heater-A/C control module learns the mode
door stop positions during the calibration procedure
and will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for
any problems it detects in the mode door actuator
circuits. The mode door actuator can be diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.

POWER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
A blower power module is used on this model when
it is equipped with the optional Automatic Tempera-
ture Control (ATC) (Fig. 22). Models equipped with
the standard manual heater-A/C control use a blower
motor resistor, instead of the blower power module.
The blower power module is installed in a mounting
hole in the evaporator housing, directly behind the
glove box opening of the instrument panel. The mod-
ule consists of a molded plastic mounting plate with
two integral connector receptacles. Concealed behind
the mounting plate within the evaporator housing is
the power module electronic circuitry and a large
finned, heat sink. The module mounting plate is
secured with two screws to the evaporator housingand is accessed for service by rolling down the glove
box from the instrument panel.
The power module heat sink will get hot when in
use. Do not touch the heat sink if the blower motor
has been running. The blower power module cannot
be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The blower power module is connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system through a dedicated take out
and connector of the instrument panel wire harness.
A second connector receptacle receives the pigtail
wire connector from the blower motor. The blower
power module allows the microprocessor-based Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC) heater-A/C control
module to calculate and provide infinitely variable
blower motor speeds based upon either manual
blower switch input or the ATC programming using a
Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) circuit strategy. The
PWM voltage is applied to a comparator circuit
which compares the PWM signal voltage to the
blower motor feedback voltage. The resulting output
drives the power module circuitry, which adjusts the
voltage output received from the blower motor relay
to change or maintain the desired blower speed. The
blower power module is diagnosed using a DRBIIIt
scan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic infor-
mation.

RECIRCULATION DOOR
ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The recirculation door actuator is a reversible,
12-volt Direct Current (DC), servo motor (Fig. 23).
The single recirculation door actuator is located on
the passenger side end of the heater-A/C housing
unit, on the bottom of the lower intake air housing.
The recirculation door actuator is mechanically con-
nected to the recirculation air door. The recirculationdoor actuator is interchangeable with the actuators
for the blend air door(s) and the mode door. Each
actuator is contained within an identical black
molded plastic housing with an integral wire connec-
tor receptacle. Two integral mounting tabs allow the
actuator to be secured with two screws to the lower
intake air housing. Each actuator also has an identi-
cal output shaft with splines that connects it to the
linkage that drives the recirculation air door. The
recirculation door actuator does not require mechan-
ical indexing to the recirculation air door, as it is
electronically calibrated by the heater-A/C control
module. The recirculation door actuator cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if damaged or faulty, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The recirculation door actuator is connected to the
heater-A/C control module through the vehicle elec-
trical system by a dedicated two-wire take out and
connector of the HVAC wire harness. The recircula-
tion door actuator can move the recirculation door in
two directions. When the heater-A/C control module
pulls the voltage on one side of the motor connection
high and the other connection low, the recirculation
air door will move in one direction. When the module
reverses the polarity of the voltage to the motor, the
recirculation air door moves in the opposite direction.
When the module makes the voltage to both connec-
tions high or both connections low, the recirculation
air door stops and will not move. These same motor
connections also provide a feedback signal to the
heater-A/C control module. This feedback signal
