OPERATION

• The battery voltage is applied to the A/C com-

pressor relay (terminal No. 1).

• The battery voltage is applied to the A/C com-

pressor relay (terminal No. 2) from the ignition
switch. The engine-ECU (terminal No. 20) makes
the power transistor in the unit be in "ON" posi-
tion and makes currents go on the A/C compres-
sor relay coil, and that makes the relay be in "ON"
position.

• When the A/C compressor is in "ON" position, the

battery voltage is supplied to the A/C compressor
(terminal No. 4) from the A/C compressor relay
assembly (terminal No. 1).

FUNCTION

• When the A/C switch "ON" signal is input to the

engine-ECU, the engine-ECU places the A/C
compressor relay in the "ON" position. Accord-
ingly, the battery voltage supplied to the A/C com-
pressor operates the magnet clutch.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Failed A/C compressor relay

• Failed A/C compressor magnet clutch

• Open/short circuit in A/C compressor relay circuit

or loose connector contact

• Failed engine-ECU

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

NOTE:

.

*1: L.H. drive vehicles
*2: R.H. drive vehicles

STEP 1. Connector check: B-13X A/C
compressor relay connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2 .

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.

STEP 2. A/C compressor relay check.

• Check A/C compressor relay (Refer to GROUP

55

− On-vehicle Service − Power Relay Check

P.55-107

).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3 .

NO :

Replace the A/C compressor relay.

STEP 3. Perform voltage measurement at B-13X
A/C compressor relay connector.

• Remove relay, and measure at relay box side.

• Ignition switch: "ON"

• Voltage between terminal No. 2 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5 .

NO :

Go to Step 4 .

STEP 4. Connector check: C-208 ignition switch
connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Check intermediate connectors C-124

*1

or

C-122

*2

, C-210 and C-211, and repair if

necessary. If intermediate connectors are
normal, check and repair harness between
B-13X (terminal No. 2) A/C compressor
relay connector and C-208 (terminal No. 4)
ignition switch connector.

• Check power supply line for

open/short circuit.

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.

STEP 5. Perform voltage measurement at B-13X
A/C compressor relay connector.

• Remove relay, and measure at relay box side.

• Voltage between terminal No. 1 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6 .

NO :

Check intermediate connector A-29

*1

or

C-31

*2

, and repair if necessary. If

intermediate connector is normal, check and
repair harness between B-13X (terminal No.
1) A/C compressor relay connector and
battery.

• Check power supply line for

open/short circuit.

STEP 6. Connector check: A-36 A/C compressor
assembly connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 7 .

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.
