Controller
The operation of the A/C system is controlled by the
switches on the control head. This console–mounted
heating and ventilation system contains the following
knobs and display:
Temperature Control Push Knobs
1. Raise the temperature of the air entering the ve-
hicle by pressing the top switch, with the red arrow
pointing upward.
2. Lower the temperature by pressing the bottom
switch, with the blue arrow pointing downward.
3. Actuate the air mix door by an electric motor.
4. Vary the mix of the air passing through the heater
core with the air bypassing the core.
Each press of a switch changes the set temperature by in-
crements of 0.5°C (1°F). This is shown in the temperature
window on the function display.
The Function Display
This is an LCD display indicating the status of the control
settings selected. Starting from the left end of the display,
the sections are as follows:
1. Temperature setting – Indicates the temperature set
with the temperature control knob.
2. Auto status – Indicates whether the system is oper-
ating in the full auto mode or the manual mode.
3. Defroster icon – Indicates manual selection of full
defrost mode.
4. Mode – Indicated by icon, the mode chosen by the
system in auto (or by the operator in manual) is
shown by an illumination arrow indicating the air
path.
5. A/C – A snowflake icon indicating whether the A/C
is ON or OFF.
6. Fan speed – Indicates the fan speed by illuminating
a bar based on the segment at the front, for low
speed, and adding additional segments in order up
to the fifth, for high speed.Eight Additional Push Knobs
1. Full defrost – Causes the mode motors to direct all
air to the windshield and aide window outlets for
maximum defrosting.
2. Air intake – Switches between fresh air intake, the
default, and recirculating air. Airflow arrows on the
display indicate the mode in effect.
3. Full Auto Switch – Maintains the set temperature
automatically. In this mode, the fully automatic tem-
perature control (FATC) system controls the follow-
ing:
S The air mix door motor.
S The mode door motor.
S The blower motor speed.
S The inlet air door motor.
S A/C ON/OFF.
4. OFF Switch – Turns the automatic air conditioning
and fan control off.
5. Mode Switch – Allows manual selection of the air-
flow direction.

of the air conditioning function.
7. Fan Control Switch – Allows manual selection
among five fan speeds.
8. Defogger Switch – Turns on the electric defogging
heater in the rear window and the outside rearview
mirrors, if the vehicle is equipped with heated mir-
rors.
Pressure Transducer
Pressure transducer switching incorporates the functions
of the high–pressure and the low–pressure cutout
switches along with the fan cycling switch. The pressure
transducer is located in the high–side liquid refrigerant line
behind the right strut tower, between the right strut tower
and the fire wall. The output from this pressure transducer
goes to the electronic control module (ECM), which con-
trols the compressor function based on the pressure sig-
nal.
Wide–Open Throttle (WOT) Compressor
Cutoff
During full–throttle acceleration, the throttle position sen-
sor (TPS) sends a signal to the ECM, which then controls
the compressor clutch.
High RPM Cutoff
As engine rpm approaches the maximum limit, the ECM
will disengage the compressor clutch until the engine
slows to a lower rpm.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
DRIVER SEAT BELT WARNING
The driver’s safety belt incorporates a safety belt reminder
light in the instrument cluster to remind the driver if the
safety belt is not fastened when the the ignition is turned
ON.
THREE–POINT ELR FRONT SEAT
BELT WITH PRETENSIONER
The three–point emergency locking retractor (ELR) front
seat belt pretensioner is always unlocked, allowing the
passenger freedom of movement, except in emergencies
such as rapid deceleration, rapid acceleration, or hard cor-
nering maneuvers.
The front seat belt pretensioner contains an ignitor charge
and a gas generator to inflate the pretensioner. The pre-
tensioner also includes wiring and a connector. The con-
nector of the pretensioner contains a shorting bar which
short–circuits the pretensioner high circuit to the preten-
sioner low circuit when the connector is disconnected. The
shorting bar prevents current from traveling through the
pretensioner during servicing. The shorting bar disen-
gaged when the connecotr is connected.
The pretensioner is an electronically controlled pyrotech-
nical reactor which reduce seat belt slack when it is actived
with air bags.
The front seat belt pretensioner must be replaced after an
accident that cause its activation.
THREE–POINT CLR (ELR) REAR
OUTBOARD SEAT BELT
The rear outboard seating positions use the three–point
child locking retractor (CLR) or emergency locking retrac-
tor (ELR) seat belts. The three–point CLR (ELR) seat beltis always unlocked, allowing the passenger freedom of
movement, except in emergencies such as rapid decel-
eration, rapid acceleration, or hard cornering maneuvers.

DIAGNOSIS
DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC)
When the sensing and diagnostic module (SDM) detects
any problem it illuminates the airbag warning indicator and
stores the diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs).
The supplemental inflatable restraints (SIR) diagnostic
system check must be always the starting point for any
SIR diagnosis. The diagnostic system check reveals diag-
nostic trouble codes (DTCs) through the use of scan tool.
It also checks for proper airbag warning lamp operation.
The two types of DTCs that may be recorded are as fol-lows :
1. Active DTCs represent malfunction being detected
during the current ignition cycle. Active DTCs are
stored in random access memory (RAM).
2. Historic DTCs represent malfunctions detected sin-
cethe last time the historic memory was cleared.
Historic DTCs are stored in the electrically erasable
programmable read–only memory (EPROM).

HANDLING, INSTALLATION AND
DIAGNOSIS
S Airbag modules should not be subjected to temper-
ature above 65 degrees Celsius(149 degrees Fahr-
enheit).
S An airbag and SDM should not be used if it has
been dropped from height of 0.9 meters(3 feet) or
greater.
S When an SDM is replaced, it must be oriented with
the arrow on the SDM pointing toward the front of
the vehicle.
S It is very important for the SDM to be installed flat
on the mounting surface, parallel to the vehicle’s
longitudinal axis.
S To avoid setting diagnostic trouble codes(DTCs), do
not apply power to the SIR unless all components
are connected or a diagnostic chart request it.
S The SIR Diagnostic System Check must be the
starting point of any SIR diagnostics. The SIR Diag-
nostic System Check will verify proper airbag indi-
cator operation and will lead you to correct chart to
diagnose any SIR malfunctions. Bypassing these
procedures may result in extended diagnostic time
incorrect parts replacement.
REPAIRS AND INSPECTIONS
REQUIRED AFTER AN ACCIDENT
CAUTION : Any repairs to the vehicle’s structure
must return it to the original production configu-
ration. Deployment requires replacement of
SDM, the inflator modules and a dimensional in-
spection of the steering column.
S If any SIR components are damaged, they must be
replaced. If SIR components mounting points are
damaged, they must be repaired or replaced.
S Never use SIR parts from another vehicle. This
does not include remanufactured parts purchased
from an authorized source.
S Do not attempt to service the SDM, the clock spring
or other airbag modules, these items must be re-
placed if they are defective.
S Verify the part number of replaced airbag modules.
Some inflator modules look identical but contain
different internal components.
