A/C DOES NOT WORK SUFFICIENTLY. |
|---|---|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
The A/C compressor magnetic clutch does not engage when the A/C switch is turned on.
|
|
POSSIBLE CAUSE
|
• Improper refrigerant charging amount
• Open A/C magnetic clutch
• Open circuit in wiring harness between A/C relay and A/C magnetic clutch
• Poor GND of A/C magnetic clutch
• Refrigerant pressure switch is stuck open.
• A/C relay is stuck open.
• Seized A/C compressor
• Open circuit in wiring harness between A/C switch and PCM through both refrigerant pressure switch and A/C amplifier

Diagnostic procedure
|
STEP |
INSPECTION |
RESULTS |
ACTION |
|---|---|---|---|
|
1
|
Connect the WDS or equivalent to the DLC-2.
Retrieve any continuous memory, KOEO and KOER DTCs using WDS or equivalent.
Are there any DTCs displayed?
|
Yes
|
DTC is displayed:
Go to the appropriate DTC inspection.
(See DTC TABLE [ZY, Z6].)
|
|
No
|
No DTC is displayed:
Go to the next step.

|
2
|
Disconnect the A/C compressor connector.
Start the engine and turn the A/C switch on.
Is there correct voltage at the
A/C compressor magnetic clutch terminal?
Specification
0.5—1.5 mm {0.02—0.05 in}
|
Yes
|
Inspect for GND condition of the magnetic clutch on the A/C compressor.
• If GND condition is normal, inspect for open circuit magnetic clutch coil.
|
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|

|
3
|
Disconnect the refrigerant pressure switch connector.
Connect jumper wire between
A/C high-pressure switch terminals.
Connect jumper wires between refrigerant pressure switch terminals.
Connect WDS or equivalent to DLC-2.
Access AC_REQ PID.
Turn the ignition switch to the ON position position.
Turn the A/C switch on and set the blower fan at any speed.
Does AC_REQ PID read On?
|
Yes
|
Inspect the refrigerant pressure switch operation.
• If the switch is normal, go to the next step.
|
|
No
|
Inspect for following:
• A/C switch is stuck open.
• Open circuit in wiring harness between refrigerant pressure switch and PCM terminal 1Q
• Open circuit of blower motor fan switch and resistor (if blower motor does not operate)
• Evaporator temperature sensor and A/C amplifier

4
|
Remove jumper wire from the switch connector.
Reconnect connector to the refrigerant pressure switch.
Start the engine and turn the A/C switch on.
Does the fan operate?
|
Yes
|
Inspect for stuck open the A/C relay.
Replace if necessary.
|
|
No
|
Inspect following and repair or replace if necessary:
• Refrigerant charging amount
• A/C compressor for being seized
|
||
|
5
|
Verify test results.
• If normal, return to diagnostic index to service any additional symptoms.
• If malfunction remains, inspect related Service information perform repair or diagnosis.
