Lexus SC300 / Lexus SC400. Manual — part 24
Diag. Code 22
Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This sensor sends 4 pulses per engine revolution to the air conditioner control assembly.
If the number ratio of the compressor speed, divided by the engine speed is smaller that a predetermined
value, the air conditioner control assembly turns the compressor off. And, the indicator flashes at about
1 second intervals.
Code No.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Check compressor
(1). Check compressor drive belt tension (See page
(2). Check if the compressor does not lock during with engine started and blower switch
and A/C switch ON.
Adjust drive belt tension or repair compressor.
Check compressor lock sensor.
Disconnect compressor lock sensor connector.
Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of
compressor lock sensor connector.
Resistance:

F) : 670 –890
Replace compressor lock sensor.
Check for open and short in harness and connectors between air conditioner
control assembly and compressor lock sensor (See page
Repair or replace harness or connector.
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on
matrix chart (See page AC-36).However,
when Diag. code 22 is displayed, check and
replace air conditioner control assembly.

Diag. Code 23
Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
The pressure switch sends the appropriate signals to the air conditioner control assembly when the air
conditioner refrigerant pressure drops too low or rises too high. When the air conditioner control assem-
bly receives these signals, it outputs signals via the Engine & ECT ECU to switch off the compressor
relay and turns the magnet clutch off.
Code No.

Check voltage between terminals LP of air conditioner control
assembly and body ground.
(1)
Install the manifold gauge set.
(See page
).
(2)
Turn ignition switch ON.
Check voltage between terminals LP of air conditioner
control assembly connector and body ground when the
air conditioner gas pressure is
changed.
The voltage changes with gas pressure, as shown
in the diagram below.

Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on
matrix chart (See page AC-36).
Check pressure switch.
Disconnect pressure switch connector.
Check continuity between terminals 1 and 4 of pres-
sure switch when air conditioner gas pressure is
changed.
The continuity changes with gas pressure as
shown below.
