Inspection Procedure 26: A/C compressor relay system

OPERATION

• The battery voltage is applied to the A/C com-

pressor relay (terminal No. 1 and No. 3).

• The engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU

<CVT> (terminal No. 81

*1

or No. 110

*2

) makes

the power transistor in the unit be in ON position
and makes currents go on the A/C compressor

relay coil, and that makes the relay be in ON
position.

• When the A/C compressor is in ON position, the

battery voltage is supplied to the A/C compressor
(terminal No. 4) from the A/C compressor relay
assembly (terminal No. 1).

FUNCTION

• When the A/C switch ON signal is input to the

engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU <CVT>,
the engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU
<CVT> places the A/C compressor relay in the
ON position. Accordingly, the battery voltage sup-
plied to the A/C compressor operates the magnet
clutch.

PROBABLE CAUSES

• Failed A/C compressor relay

• Failed A/C compressor

• Open/short/damaged circuit in A/C compressor

relay circuit or loose connector contact

• Failed engine-ECU <M/T> or engine-CVT-ECU

<CVT>

DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE

NOTE:

.

*1: Vehicles with manual A/C
*2: Vehicles with automatic A/C

STEP 1. Connector check: B-104 A/C compressor
relay connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 2 .

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.

STEP 2. A/C compressor relay check.

• Check A/C compressor relay (Refer to GROUP

55

− On-vehicle Service − Power Relay Check

P.55A-52

).

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 3 .

NO :

Replace A/C compressor relay.

STEP 3. Perform voltage measurement at B-104
A/C compressor assembly connector.

• Disconnect connector, and measure at harness

side.

• Voltage between terminal No. 1, No. 3 and earth.

OK: System voltage

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 4 .

NO :

Check intermediate connector B-108, and

repair if necessary. If intermediate
connector is normal, check and repair
harness between B-104 (terminal No. 1 and
No. 3) A/C compressor assembly connector
and battery.

• Check power line for open/short

circuit.

STEP 4. Check harness between battery and
B-104 (terminal No. 1 and No. 3) A/C compressor
relay connector.

NOTE: Before checking harness, check intermediate
connector B-108, and repair if necessary.

• Check power supply line for damage.

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 5 .

NO :

Repair the damaged harness wire.

STEP 5. Connector check: A-08 engine-ECU
connector or engine-CVT-ECU connector

Q: Is the check result normal?

YES :

Go to Step 6 .

NO :

Repair or replace the connector.

repair if necessary. If intermediate
connector is normal, check and repair
harness between B-104 (terminal No. 2)
A/C compressor relay connector and A-08
(terminal No. 81

*1

or No. 110
