Air Conditioner Operation - Toyota AT180 Series Repair Manual

RADIATOR FAN AND AIR CONDITIONER (AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER, FOR DIAL TYPE OF BLOWER CONTROL SW)

6. AIR CONDITIONER OPERATION

THE A/C AMPLIFIER RECEIVES VARIOUS SIGNALS, THE ENGINE RPM SIGNAL FROM THE IGNITER, OUTLET TEMPERATURE SIGNAL
FROM THE A/C THERMISTOR, COOLANT TEMPERATURE FROM THE WATER TEMP. SENSOR, AND THE LOCK SIGNAL FM THE A/C
COMPRESSOR, ETC.
WHEN THE ENGINE IS STARTED AND THE A/C SW (A/C CONTROL ASSEMBLY) IS TURNED ON, THE CURRENT FLOWS FROM A/C
FUSE TO TERMINAL 3 OF A/C AMPLIFIER.
AS A RESULT, THE CURRENT FLOWING FROM TERMINAL 3 OF A/C MAGNET CLUTCH RELAY TO TERMINAL 8 OF A/C AMPLIFIER
FLOWS FROM TERMINAL 15 OF A/C AMPLIFIER TO GROUND AND TURNS IN THE MAGNET CLUTCH RELAY.
BECAUSE THE MAGNET CLUTCH IS ON, THE A/C COMPRESSOR OPERATES, CAUSING THE CURRENT FLOWING FROM A/C IDLE–UP
VSV TO TERMINAL 6 OF A/C AMPLIFIER TO FLOW TO TERMINAL 15 OF A/C AMPLIFIER
AVOID LOWERING THE ENGINE RPM DURING AIR CONDITIONER OPERATION.
WHEN ANY OF THE FLOWING SIGNALS ARE INPUT TO THE A/C AMPLIFIER, THE AMPLIFIER OPERATES TO TURN OFF THE AIR
CONDITIONER:
∗ ENGINE HIGH RPM SIGNAL
∗ COOLANT HIGH TEMP. SIGNAL IS HIGH
∗ A SIGNAL THAT THE TEMPERATURE AT THE AIR OUTLET IS LOW
∗ A SIGNAL THAT THERE IS A LARGE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ENGINE RPM AND COMPRESSOR RPM
∗ A SIGNAL THAT THE REFRIGERANT PRESSURE IS ABNORMALLY HIGH OR LOW.
