INSTALLATION
(1) Position the rear A/C condenser fan relay into
the proper receptacle of the relay block located in the
rear A/C evaporator housing.
(2) Align the A/C condenser fan relay terminals
with the terminal cavities in the relay block recepta-
cle and push down firmly on the relay until the ter-
minals are fully seated.
(3) Install the rear air filter (Refer to 24 - HEAT-
ING
&

(4) Reconnect the negative battery cable.
A / C CONTROL MODULE
DESCRIPTION
The rear A/C control module (Fig. 5) is connected
to the rear A/C blower motor switch, rear evaporative
temperature sensor, rear A/C temperature control
and the temperature sensor.
The rear A/C control module is located in the upper
left side of the rear A/C evaporator housing.
OPERATION
The rear A/C control module is supplied fused bat-
tery power through the rear blower switch. The con-
trol module receives input signals from the rear A/C
blower motor switch, rear A/C temperature control,
rear temperature sensor and the rear evaporator
temperature sensor when the front A/C switch is
turned on. The rear A/C control module uses the

input signals to control rear blower motor speed and
output air temperature, and to prevent freezing of
the rear evaporator core.
The rear A/C control module cannot be repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. Refer
to the appropriate wiring information for complete
HVAC wiring diagrams.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the air filter from the rear A/C evapo-
rator housing (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CON-
DITIONING/DISTRIBUTION - REAR/AIR FILTER -
REMOVAL).
(3) Reach up into the rear A/C evaporator housing
and disconnect the wire harness connector from the
rear A/C control module (Fig. 6).
(4) Remove the two screws that secure the rear
A/C control module to the rear A/C evaporator hous-
ing and remove the control module.

INSTALLATION
(1) Position the rear A/C control module to the
rear A/C evaporator housing.
(2) Install the two screws that secure the rear A/C
control module to the rear A/C evaporator housing.
Tighten the screws to 2 N·m (17 in. lbs.).
(3) Connect the wire harness connector to the rear
A/C control module.

A / C HIGH PRESSURE
SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The rear A/C high pressure switch provides a sig-
nal to the rear A/C control module to control rear A/C
compressor clutch engagement/disengagement and,
control rear A/C condenser cooling fan operation (Fig.
7). The rear A/C control module will disengage the
rear A/C clutch if the rear refrigerant system pres-
sure exceeds approximately 2551 kPa (370 psi).
The rear A/C high pressure switch is mounted on a
fitting located on the inlet tube of the rear A/C con-
denser.
The rear refrigerant system must be discharged
prior to removing the rear A/C high pressure
switch.
OPERATION
The contacts in the rear A/C high pressure switch
open and close causing the rear A/C control module
to turn the rear A/C clutch on and off. This prevents

rear A/C compressor operation when the rear dis-
charge line pressure approaches high levels, and also
reduces electrical surging from rear A/C clutch
engagement.
The rear A/C high pressure switch controls rear
A/C condenser cooling fan operation by monitoring
the rear discharge line pressure. When the rear dis-
charge pressure rises above approximately 1900 to
2200 kPa (280 to 320 psi) the rear A/C condenser
cooling fan will turn on. The rear condenser cooling
fan will turn off when the rear discharge pressure
drops to approximately 1600 kPa (235 psi).
The rear A/C high pressure switch contacts open
when the rear discharge line pressure rises above
approximately 3100 to 3375 kPa (450 to 490 psi). The
rear A/C high pressure switch contacts close when
the rear discharge line pressure drops to approxi-
mately 1860 to 2275 kPa (270 to 330 psi).
The rear A/C high pressure switch is factory-cali-
brated and cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. Refer to the
appropriate wiring information for complete HVAC
wiring diagrams.
REMOVAL
WARNING: Refer to the applicable warnings and
cautions for this system before performing the fol-
lowing operation (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR
CONDITIONING/PLUMBING - WARNINGS) and (Refer
to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
CAUTIONS). Failure to follow the warnings and cau-
tions could result in possible personal injury or
death.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the air filter from the rear A/C evapo-
rator housing (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CON-
DITIONING/DISTRIBUTION - REAR/AIR FILTER -
REMOVAL).
(3) Recover the refrigerant from the rear refriger-
ant system (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING/PLUMBING - STANDARD PROCEDURE -
REFRIGERANT RECOVERY).
(4) Remove the cover from the rear A/C condenser
housing (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING/DISTRIBUTION
-
REAR/A/C
CON-
DENSER COVER - REMOVAL).
(5) Disconnect the wire harness connector from the
rear A/C high pressure switch (Fig. 8).
(6) Remove the rear A/C high pressure switch and
install a plug into, or tape over the opened rear dis-
charge line fitting.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Replacement of the PTFE thread sealing
tape is required anytime the rear A/C high pressure
switch is removed from the rear discharge line. Fail-
ure to replace the sealing tape could result in a rear
refrigerant system leak.
(1) Remove the tape or plug from the rear dis-
charge line fitting.
(2) Install PTFE thread sealing tape onto the rear
A/C high pressure switch and install the switch onto
the rear discharge line. Tightened the A/C high pres-
sure switch to 10 N·m (88 in. lbs.).
(3) Connect the wiring harness connector to the
rear A/C high pressure switch.
(4) Reconnect the negative battery cable.
(5) Evacuate the rear refrigerant system (Refer to
24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING
- STANDARD PROCEDURE - REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM EVACUATE).
(6) Charge the rear refrigerant system (Refer to 24
- HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/PLUMBING -
STANDARD PROCEDURE - REFRIGERANT SYS-
TEM CHARGE).
(7) Install the rear air filter (Refer to 24 - HEAT-
ING
&
AIR
CONDITIONING/DISTRIBUTION
