PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
REMOVAL
1. Clean piping connection point, and set a disconnector.
2. Slide disconnector in axial direction of piping, and stretch garter spring with tapered point of disconnector.
3. Slide disconnector farther so that inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of
female-side piping flare. Then male-side piping can be disconnected.
INSTALLATION
1. Clean piping connection points, and insert male-side piping into female-side piping.
2. Push inserted male-side piping harder so that female-side piping flare stretches garter spring.
3. If inside diameter of garter spring becomes larger than outside diameter of female-side piping flare, garter
spring seats on flare. Then, it fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare to anchor
piping connection point.
NOTE:
When garter spring seats on flare, and fits in between male-side piping cage and female-side piping flare,
it clicks.
CAUTION:

Female-side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side piping
straight in axial direction.

Insert piping securely until a click is heard.

OPERATION
The unified meter and A/C amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The unified meter and A/C amp.
sends mode door, air mix door and intake door opening angle data to the mode door motor LCU, air mix door
motor LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the
address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the unified meter and A/C amp. and each of
the motor position sensors is compared by the LCUs in each motor with the existing decision and opening
angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEF/VENT and FRE/REC operation is selected. The new selection data
are returned to the unified meter and A/C amp.
TRANSMISSION DATA AND TRANSMISSION ORDER
Unified meter and A/C amp. data is transmitted consecutively to each of the door motors following the form
shown in figure below.
Start:
Initial compulsory signal sent to each of the door motors.
Address:
Data sent from the unified meter and A/C amp. are selected according to data-based decisions made by the
air mix door motor, mode door motor and intake door motor.
If the addresses are identical, the opening angle data and error check signals are received by the door motor
LCUs. The LCUs then make the appropriate error decision. If the opening angle data have no error, door con-
trol begins.
If an error exists, the received data are rejected and corrected data received. Finally, door control is based
upon the corrected opening angle data.
Opening Angle:
Data that shows the indicated door opening angle of each door motor.
Error Check:
In this procedure, transmitted and received data are checked for errors. Error data are then compiled. The
error check prevents corrupted data from being used by the air mix door motor, the mode door motor and the
intake door motor. Error data can be related to the following symptoms.

Malfunction of electrical frequency

Poor electrical connections

Signal leakage from transmission lines

Signal level fluctuation

Removal and InstallationNJS0001J
REMOVAL
1. Remove low-pressure pipe 1 and high-pressure pipe 2. Refer to ATC-131, "Removal and Installation of
Low-pressure Pipe 1 and High-pressure Pipe 2" .
CAUTION:
Cap or wrap the joint of evaporator, low-pressure pipe 1, 2 and high-pressure pipe 1, 2 with suit-
able material such as vinyl tape to avoid the entry of air.
2. Slide evaporator to passenger side, and then remove intake
sensor.
INSTALLATION
Installation is basically the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:

Replace O-rings of low-pressure pipe 1, 2 and high-pressure pipe 1, 2 with new ones, and then
apply compressor oil to it when installing it.

Mark the mounting position of intake sensor bracket prior to removal so that the reinstalled sen-
sor can be located in the same position.

Female-side piping connection is thin and easy to deform. Slowly insert the male-side piping
straight in axial direction.

Insert piping securely until a click is heard.

After piping connection is completed, pull male-side piping by hand to make sure that connection
does not come loose.

When recharging refrigerant, check for leaks.
