Component Description
Ambient sensor Ambient sensor measures ambient air temperature. The sensor uses a
thermistor which is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical
resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature increases.
AV c o n t r o l u n i t AV control unit transmits front A/C control operation signal to A/C auto amp.
via CAN communication line.
A/C auto amp. A/C auto amp. controls front automatic air conditioning system by inputting
and calculating signals from each sensor and each switch. A/C auto amp.
has self-diagnosis function. Diagnosis of front automatic air conditioning
system can be performed quickly.
Blower unit Front blower motor Refer to
HAC-12
.
Intake door motor The LCU (Local Control Unit) is installed to intake door motor so as to per-
form the multiplex commu
nication control (LIN).
Refer to HAC-18, "
FRONT AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM :
Door Control".
Combination meter Combination meter transmits vehicle speed signal to A/C auto amp. via
CAN communication line.
ECM ECM controls compressor according to status of engine and refrigerant.
ECM transmits engine coolant temperature signal to A/C auto amp. via
CAN communication line.
Engine coolant temperature sensor Engine coolant temperature sensor measures engine coolant temperature.
The sensor uses a thermistor which is sensitive to the change in tempera-
ture. The electrical resistance of the thermistor decreases as temperature
increases.
Front display Front display indicates operation status of front automatic air conditioning
system.
Front in-vehicle sensor Front in-vehicle sensor measures temperature of intake air that flows
through aspirator to passenger room. The sensor uses a thermistor which
is sensitive to the change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the
thermistor decreases as temperature increases.

LCU (Local Control Unit) is built in to each door moto r. And detects door position by PBR (Potentio Balance
Resistor).
A/C auto amp. communicates with each LCU via comm unication line. And receives each door position feed
back signal from each LCU.
Each LCU controls each door to the appropriate pos ition depending on the control signal from A/C auto amp.
