Component Description
A/C Compressor Vaporized refrigerant is drawn into the A/C compressor from the evaporator, where it is compressed
to a high pressure, high temperature vapor. The hot, compressed vapor is then discharged to the con-
denser.
Air mix door motor The air mix door controls the mix of hot or cold air that enters the ventilation system. It is controlled
by the front air control based on the position of the temperature dial. The air mix door motor receives
position commands from the front air control and reports actual door position back via an LCU (Local
Control Unit) installed inside the motor. Commands and responses are sent across the LIN (Local In-
terconnect Network) to each motor simultaneously, with each motor having its own unique address,
thereby only responding to requests sent to its specific address. The LCU reads the door position from
a Position Balanced Resistor (PBR), also part of the motor, and returns that information to the front
air control. The LCU switches the polarity of the circuits connected to the DC motor to drive the motor
forward or backward as requested by the front air control.
BCM The BCM receives the fan ON and A/C ON signals from the front air control and sends a compressor
ON request to the ECM.
Blower motor The blower motor varies the speed at which the air flows through the ventilation system.
ECM The ECM sends a compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R based on the status of engine operation
and load as well as refrigerant pressure information. If all the conditions are met for A/C operation,
the ECM transmits the compressor ON request to the IPDM E/R. The ECM shares the refrigerant
pressure sensor signal, engine RPM, and engine coolant temperature with the front air control via
CAN communication line.
Front air control The front air control controls the operation of the A/C and heating system based on inputs from the
temperature control knob, the mode switches, the blower control dial, and inputs received from the
ECM and combination meter across the CAN.
Front blower motor relay The front blower motor relay controls the flow of current to fuses 17 and 27 in the Fuse Block (J/B).
The relay is connected directly to ground, and is energized when the ignition switch is in the ON or
START position.
Fuse Block (J/B) Located in the passenger compartment, behind the left lower IP, the Fuse Block (J/B) contains the
front blower motor relay and several fuses required for the air conditioner control system.
Intake door motor The intake door motor controls the position of the intake door. Fresh air is allowed to enter the cabin
in one position, and recirculated inside air is allowed to enter in the other position. At times the front
air control may command partial fresh or recirculation based on evaporator or coolant temperatures.
The intake door motor receives position commands from the front air control and reports actual door
position back via an LCU (Local Control Unit) installed inside the motor. Commands and responses
are sent across the LIN (Local Interconnect Network) to each motor simultaneously, with each motor
having its own unique address, thereby only responding to requests sent to its specific address. The
LCU reads the door position from a Position Balanced Resistor (PBR), also part of the motor, and re-
turns that information to the front air control. The LCU switches the polarity of the circuits connected
to the DC motor to drive the motor forward or backward as requested by the front air control.
IPDM E/R Refer to PCS-6, "RELAY CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description"

2. The blower speed dial is turned completely counterclockwise to the OFF position.
3. The A/C switch is manually turned OFF.
In other words, the compressor ON request cannot be turned off in D/F or DEF modes.
REFRIGERANT PRESSURE PROTECTION
The refrigerant system is protected against excessively high- or low-pressures by the refrigerant pressure sen-
sor, located on the liquid tank on the condenser. The refr igerant pressure sensor detects the pressure inside
the refrigerant line and sends a voltage signal to the EC M. If the system pressure rises above or falls below
the following values, the ECM requests the IPDM E/ R to de-energize the A/C relay and disengage the com-
pressor.
• 3.12 MPa (31.82 kg/cm
2, 452.4 psi) or more (When the engine speed is less than 1,500 rpm)
• 2.74 MPa (27.95 kg/cm
2, 397.3 psi) or more (When the engine speed is 1,500 rpm or more)
• 0.14 MPa (1.43 kg/cm
2, 20.3 psi) or less
PRESSURE RELIEF VALVE
The refrigerant system is also protected by a pressure relief valve, located in the rear head of the compressor.
When the pressure of refrigerant in the system incr eases to an abnormal level [more than 2,990 kPa (30.5 kg/
cm
2, 433.6 psi)], the release port on the pressure relief valve automatically opens and releases refrigerant into
the atmosphere.
COMPRESSOR OIL CIRCULATION CONTROL
When the engine starts while the engine coolant temperature is 56 °C (133 °F) or less, ECM activates the com-
pressor for approximately 6 seconds and circulates the compressor lubricant once.
OPERATING RATE CONTROL
When the set temperature is other than fully cold or the air outlet is “VENT”, “B/L” or “FOOT”, the front air con-
trol controls the compressor activation depending on ambient temperature.
Door ControlINFOID:0000000009463200
DOOR MOTOR CONTROL
• A Local Control Unit (LCU) is built into each door motor and detects the door position by using a Position
Balanced Resistor (PBR).
• Each door motor LCU has a unique address. The front air control communicates with the door motor LCUs by using each door’s unique communication address. The front air control sends requested door position
commands to each door motor LCU via a Local Interconnect Network (LIN) communication line. Each door
motor’s LCU receives the command and sends back a door position feedback signal.
• Each LCU controls each door to the appropriate posit ion depending on the control signal from the front air
control. When the door movement is complete, the LCU transmits a signal to the front air control indicating
that the door movement is complete.

Temperature ControlINFOID:0000000009463201
• When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the cu stomer uses the front air control temperature control
dial to set the desired temperature.
• The front air control calculates the target front air mix door opening angle depending on the selected temper-
ature, intake temperature sensor, engine coolant temperature and rpm, and ambient temperature.
• Front air mix door is controlled depending on the comparison of current front air mix door opening angle and target front air mix door opening angle.
• Regardless of ambient temperature, the front air mix door is fixed at the fully cold position when the temper-
ature control dial is set at the full cold position and fi xed at the fully hot position when the temperature control
dial is set at the full hot position.
