HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONING 1-93
MAGNETIC CLUTCH
W hen the A/C switch and the fan control knob (fan switch) are turned on with the engine running, current flows
through the thermostat and the compressor relay to activate the magnetic clutch.
The air conditioning can be stopped by turning off the A/C switch or the fan control knob (fan switch).
However, even when the air conditioning is in operation, the electronic thermostat, the pressure switch or the ECM
is used to stop the air conditioning temporarily by turning off the magnetic clutch in the prearranged conditions to
reduce the engine load which is being caused by the rise in the engine coolant temperature, and the acceleration of
the vehicle, etc.
