Intake temperature correction

- A/C amp. inputs the temperature detected by intake sensor as the intake temperature (evaporator tempera-

ture).

- A/C amp. performs the correction of the temperature detected by intake sensor for air conditioning control. 
- A/C amp. performs the correction so that the recognition intake temperature changes depending on the dif-

ference between the detected intake temperature and the recognition intake temperature. If the difference is
large, the changing is early. The changing becomes slow as the difference becomes small.

MANUAL AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM : Compressor Control

INFOID:0000000010432506

DESCRIPTION

• When the compressor activation condition is satisfied while blower motor is activated, A/C amp. transmits A/

C ON signal and blower fan ON signal to ECM.

• ECM judges the conditions of each sensor (Refrigerant pressure sensor signal, accelerator position signal,

etc.), and transmits the A/C compressor request signal to IPDM E/R via CAN communication line.

• By receiving the A/C compressor request signal from ECM, IPDM E/R turns the A/C relay to ON, and acti-

vates the compressor. Refer to

sor OFF, and stops the compressor.
When the air temperature returns to 

 [1.0

°

C (33.8

°

F)] or more, the

compressor is activated.

Refrigerant Discharge Amount Control

• A/C amp. transmits the ECV control signal via CAN communication. IPDM E/R transmits the control signal to

ECV according to the received ECV control signal.

• ECV is controlled according to change in the duty ratio of the transmitted control signal.
• Except when temperature setting is full cold or outlet is DEF, A/C amp. controls the refrigerant discharge

amount according to the required cooling capacity.

• A/C amp. increases the refrigerant discharge amount when evaporator temperature is higher than the target

temperature upper limit, and reduces the refrigerant discharge amount when evaporator temperature is at or
below the target temperature upper limit.

NOTE:
Target temperature upper limit value of evaporator can be changed using “TARGET EVAPORATOR TEMP
UPPER LIMIT SETTING” in “WORK SUPPORT” mode of CONSULT. Refer to 

HAC-191, "Setting of Target

Evaporator Temperature Upper Limit Value"

.

Compressor Oil Circulation Control

When the engine starts, A/C amp. activates the compressor for a few seconds and circulates the compressor
oil once.

CONTROL BY ECM

Compressor Protection Control at Pressure Malfunction

When the high-pressure side value that is detected by refrigerant pressure sensor is as per the following state,
ECM requests IPDM E/R to turn A/C relay OFF and stops the compressor.
• 3.12 MPa (31.82 kg/cm

• Step motors are used for the mode door motor air mix door motor, and intake door motor.
• Because the step motors do not have position detection mechanisms, there may be a deviation between the

door position recognized by A/C amp. and the actual door position.
Therefore, A/C amp. performs motor zero position reset for aligning its recognized door position with the
actual door position.

• The reset signal is transmitted from A/C amp. to the air mix door motor, mode door motor, and intake door

motor, which then perform zero position reset.

• After any of the following conditions is met, A/C amp. performs motor zero position reset when the ignition

switch is next turned ON.

- The ignition switch is turned from ON to OFF a total of 360 times.
- The ignition switch turns OFF while the mode door motor, air mix door motor, or intake door motor is operat-

ing.

• If A/C amp., air mix door motor, mode door motor, or intake door motor is removed, it is necessary to perform

motor zero position reset using CONSULT.

PTC HEATER CONTROL SYSTEM : System Description

INFOID:0000000010502884

SYSTEM DIAGRAM

DESCRIPTION

• BCM performs PTC relay ON/OFF control based on engine speed, engine coolant temperature, electrical

power cut freeze signal (permission signal, retention signal, stop signal), blower motor operation state sig-
nal, front window defogger state signal, ambient temperature signal, battery voltage, and electrical load state
(high beam request, low beam request, and others).

• When PTC relay turns ON, power supply is supplied to PTC heater. Heating element is heated and air flow

temperature is increased. Heating is available for a period of time until engine coolant temperature is
increased when engine starts cold in cold climate.

• Idle up request signal is transmitted from BCM to ECM while PTC heater operates. Idle speed is increased,

warming-up is facilitated, and battery electric power is obtained.

• Electric power supplied to PTC heating element is subject to PTC relay control conditions. 

NOTE:
PTC heater operation depends on ambient temperature and battery voltage. PTC heater is ON when ambient
temperature is 8

°

C or less. PTC heater is OFF when ambient temperature is 12

°

C (53.6

°

F) or more. PTC

heater is ON when battery voltage is 11.5 V or more. PTC heater is OFF when battery voltage is 11 V or less.
