HEATER PUMP

HEATER PUMP

System Description (VQ40DE)

INFOID:0000000005256947

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Component Parts

Heater pump control system components are:

• A/C auto amp.

• Heater pump relay

• Heater pump

• Intake sensor

System Operation

The heater pump improves heater performance specifically at idle conditions. It is designed to operate in

either of the following 2 situations:

1. Front blower motor set to maximum speed and temperature control dial (driver or passenger) set to full hot

32

°

C (90

°

F) or

2. Engine coolant temperature (signal via CAN communication) minus heater core outlet temperature (intake

sensor input to A/C auto amp.) is greater than 20

°

C (68

°

F). If the difference is less than 16

°

C (61

°

F), the

heater pump will not operate unless the conditions in item No. 1 above are met.

Diagnosis Procedure (VQ40DE)

INFOID:0000000005256948

Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to 

HAC-90, "Wiring Diagram"

.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR HEATER PUMP CIRCUIT

1.

CHECK POWER SUPPLY TO HEATER PUMP

1. Disconnect heater pump connector.

2. Turn ignition switch ON.

3. Set front blower motor to maximum speed.

4. Turn temperature control dial (passenger or driver) to full hot 32

°

AMBIENT SENSOR

Component Description

INFOID:0000000005256950

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

Ambient Sensor

Ambient sensor (1) is attached to the radiator core support (left side). It detects ambient temperature and con-

verts it into a value which is then input into the A/C auto amp.

: Front

AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INPUT PROCESS

The A/C auto amp. includes a processing circuit for the ambient sensor input. However, when the temperature

detected by the ambient sensor increases quickly, the processing circuit retards the A/C auto amp. function. It

only allows the A/C auto amp. to recognize an ambient temperature increase of 0.33

°

C (0.6

°

F) per 100 sec-

onds.

This prevents constant adjustments due to momentary conditions, such as stopping after high speed driving.

Although the actual ambient temperature has not changed, the temperature detected by the ambient sensor

will increase. This is because the heat from the engine compartment can radiate to the front grille area, loca-

tion of the ambient sensor.

Ambient Sensor Diagnosis Procedure

INFOID:0000000005256951

Regarding Wiring Diagram information, refer to 

HAC-90, "Wiring Diagram"

.

DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR AMBIENT SENSOR

SYMPTOM: Ambient sensor circuit is open or shorted. (40 or 41 is

indicated on A/C auto amp. as a result of conducting the A/C auto

amp. self-diagnosis)
