SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
When the blower speed dial is in one of the fan speed positions, the front air control outputs a fan ON signal to the BCM. When the A/C switch is pressed, the A/C switch LED illuminates and the front air control outputs a compressor ON signal to the BCM. Any mode control button can be selected. As long as the BCM receives a compressor ON signal and a fan ON signal from the front air control, the conditions required for the BCM to transmit a compressor ON request to the ECM have been met.
The BCM sends a compressor ON signal to ECM, via CAN communication line.
The ECM judges whether the compressor can be turned ON, based on each sensor status (refrigerant pressure sensor signal, throttle angle sensor, etc.). If it judges the compressor can be turned ON, it sends a compressor ON signal to IPDM E/R, via CAN communication line.
Upon receipt of a compressor ON signal from ECM, IPDM E/R turns the A/C relay ON to operate the compressor.
Component Function Check
1.CHECK MAGNET CLUTCH OPERATION
Perform auto active test of IPDM E/R. Refer to PCS "CONSULT Function (IPDM E/R)" or PCS "CONSULT Function (IPDM E/R)".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Inspection End.
NO >> Refer to HAC "Diagnosis Procedure".
Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to HAC "Wiring Diagram".
1.CHECK FUSE
Check 10A fuse (No. 42, located in IPDM E/R).
NOTE: Refer to PG "IPDM E/R Terminal Arrangement".
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 2.
NO >> Replace the blown fuse after repairing the affected circuit.
2.CHECK MAGNET CLUTCH
Does it operate normally?
YES >> GO TO 3.
NO >> Replace magnet clutch. Refer to HA "Removal and Installation".
3.CHECK MAGNET CLUTCH POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR OPEN
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> Replace IPDM E/R. Refer to PCS "Removal and Installation".
NO >> Repair harness or connector.
