- IF ANY OF FOLLOWING CONDITIONS ARE MET, KEEP ENGINE IDLING WITH A/C ON (ENGINE SPEED AT LESS THAN 2000 RPM) FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE: Refrigerant gas has been refilled or A/C parts have been replaced. Long time has elapsed since engine was stopped. NOTE: If the engine speed exceeds 2,000 RPM, the A/C compressor may be damaged.
- DO NOT HANDLE REFRIGERANT IN ENCLOSED AREAS OR NEAR OPEN FLAMES
- ALWAYS WEAR EYE PROTECTION (Scheme 1): Precaution For Handling Refrigerant In Enclosed Area
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO GET LIQUID REFRIGERANT IN YOUR EYES OR ON YOUR SKIN If liquid refrigerant gets in your eyes or on your skin: Wash the area with lots of cold water. CAUTION: Do not rub your eyes or skin. Apply clean petroleum jelly to the skin. Go immediately to a hospital or see a physician for professional treatment. (Scheme 2): Precaution For Protecting Eyes From Liquid Refrigerant
- NEVER HEAT CONTAINER OR EXPOSE IT TO NAKED FLAMES
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO DROP CONTAINER OR SUBJECT IT TO PHYSICAL SHOCKS
- DO NOT OPERATE COMPRESSOR WITH INSUFFICIENT REFRIGERANT IN REFRIGERANT SYSTEM If there is not enough refrigerant in the refrigerant system, oil lubrication will be insufficient and compressor burnout may occur. Necessary care should be taken to avoid this.
- DO NOT OPEN HIGH PRESSURE MANIFOLD VALVE WHILE COMPRESSOR IS OPERATING Open and close only the low pressure valve. Opening and closing the high pressure valve could cause the charging cylinder to rupture. (Scheme 3): Identifying High And Low Pressure Valve
- BE CAREFUL NOT TO OVERCHARGE SYSTEM WITH REFRIGERANT If the refrigerant is overcharged, it causes problems such as insufficient cooling, poor fuel economy and engine overheating.
- DO NOT OPERATE ENGINE AND COMPRESSOR WITHOUT REFRIGERANT CAUTION: This may damage the inside of the compressor.

DESCRIPTION
The ambient temperature sensor is installed in the front part of the condenser to detect the ambient temperature and control the air conditioner. The sensor is connected to the air conditioning amplifier and detects fluctuations in the ambient temperature. This data is used for controlling the room temperature. The sensor sends a signal to the air conditioning amplifier. The resistance of the ambient temperature sensor changes in accordance with the ambient temperature. As the temperature decreases, the resistance increases. As the temperature increases, the resistance decreases. The air conditioning amplifier applies a voltage (5 V) to the ambient temperature sensor and reads voltage changes as changes in the resistance of the ambient temperature sensor.

Reinstall the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays. NG: REPLACE PTC HEATER RELAY OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER - PTC HEATER RELAY) Remove the HTR SUB1 relay from the engine room R/B. Remove the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays from the engine room R/B No. 2. Turn the ignition switch ON. When the PTC heater operating conditions are met (engine at idling speed or faster, ambient temperature is 10°C (50°F) or less, engine coolant temperature is 65°C (149°F) or less, and No. 3 heater control knob setting is MAX HOT), turn the blower switch to the Lo setting. Wait 30 seconds. Measure the voltage. Standard voltage.

Reinstall the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR OK: GO TO NEXT STEP (Scheme 40): Identifying HTR SUB2 And HTR SUB3 Relays
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PTC HEATER RELAY - BODY GROUND) Remove the HTR SUB1 relay from the engine room R/B. Remove the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays from the engine room R/B No. 2. Measure the resistance. Standard resistance TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITION Tester Connection Specified Condition HTR SUB1-1 - Body ground Below 1 ohms HTR SUB2-1 - Body ground Below 1 ohms HTR SUB3-1 - Body ground Below 1 ohms Reinstall the HTR SUB1 relay. Reinstall the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (Scheme 41): Identifying HTR SUB2 And HTR SUB3 Relays OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- INSPECT PTC HEATER ASSEMBLY Disconnect the A17 PTC heater assembly connector. Measure the resistance. Standard resistance TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITION Tester Connection Specified Condition 1-2 Below 1 ohms 1-3 Below 1 ohms 2-3 Below 1 ohms Reconnect the PTC heater assembly connector. NG: REPLACE PTC HEATER ASSEMBLY (Scheme 42): Identifying PTC Heater Assembly Connector Terminals OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (BATTERY - PTC HEATER RELAY) Remove the HTR SUB1 relay from the engine room R/B. Remove the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays from the engine room R/B No. 2. Measure the voltage. Standard voltage TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITION Tester Connection Condition Specified Condition HTR SUB1-5-Body ground Always 11 to 14 V HTR SUB2-5 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V HTR SUB3-5 - Body ground Always 11 to 14 V Reinstall the HTR SUB1 relay. Reinstall the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR see scheme 56: Identifying HTR SUB2 And HTR SUB3 Relays OK: GO TO NEXT STEP
- CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (PTC HEATER RELAY - PTC HEATER ASSEMBLY) Remove the HTR SUB1 relay from the engine room R/B. Remove the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays from the engine room R/B No. 2. Disconnect the A17 PTC heater assembly connector. Measure the resistance. Standard resistance TESTER CONNECTION AND SPECIFIED CONDITION Tester Connection Specified Condition HTRSUB1-3-A17-2(B) Below 1 ohms HTRSUB2-3-A17-3(B) Below 1 ohms HTRSUB3-3-A17-1(B) Below 1 ohms Reinstall the HTR SUB1 relay. Reinstall the HTR SUB2 and HTR SUB3 relays. Reconnect the PTC heater assembly connector. NG: REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR (Scheme 43): Identifying HTR SUB2 And HTR SUB3 Relays OK: REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER
This is the main power source supplied to the air conditioning amplifier when the ignition switch is turned on. This power source is used for operating components such as the air conditioning amplifier.
