A/C Compressor Control
-
The climate control unit sends the A/C signal to the PCM based on the signals sent from the A/C switch, airflow volume control dial, and evaporator temperature sensor.
-
The PCM turns the A/C relay on/off based on the input signals from the A/C signal and A/C pressure sensor and controls the A/C compressor (magnetic clutch) operation.
A/C signal on/off control
-
When the A/C switch and fan switch are turned on, the climate control unit turns the A/C signal (magnetic clutch) on/off based on the temperature of the air passing through the evaporator.
-
When the fan switch and A/C switch are turned on, the climate control unit controls the surface temperature of the evaporator so that it is within a certain range to prevent the evaporator from freezing.
-
When the ambient temperature is low, the climate control unit sets the A/C signal (magnetic clutch) off-temperature to low to prevent window fogging.
Defroster control
-
The defroster control improves the defrosting effect.
-
When the defroster switch turns on, the climate control unit fixes the air intake mode to FRESH.
-
The air intake is fixed at FRESH even if it has been set to REC manually.
