4. CHECK UNIFIED METER AND A/C AMP. OUTPUT SIGNAL
1. Reconnect blower motor connector and unified meter and A/C
amp. connector.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Change the fan speed from Lo to Hi, and check the duty ratios
between blower motor harness connector M62 terminal 2 and
ground by using an oscilloscope. Normal terminal 2 drive signal
duty ratios are shown in the table below.
OK or NG
OK >> Replace blower motor after confirming the fan air flow does not change.
NG >> Replace unified meter and A/C amp.
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Blower Motor
Confirm smooth rotation of the blower motor.

Ensure that there are no foreign particles inside the blower unit.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Unified meter and A/C amp. controls compressor operation by ambient temperature, intake air temperature
and signal from ECM.
Low Temperature Protection Control
Unified meter and A/C amp. will turn compressor ON or OFF as determined by a signal detected by ambient
sensor and intake sensor.
When ambient temperature is higher than −2°C (28°F), the compres-
sor turns ON. The compressor turns OFF when ambient temperature
is lower than −5°C (23°F).
When intake air temperature is higher than 1°C (34°F), the compres-
sor turns ON. The compressor turns OFF when intake air tempera-
ture is lower than −5°C (23°F).
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE FOR MAGNET CLUTCH
SYMPTOM: Magnet clutch does not engage when A/C switch is ON.
