2401052 - 5040BC Check activation/deactivation of climate control compressor from linear sensor
Disconnect the electrical connector for the linear sensor.1, Earth
2, Supply
3, Signal
Connect a linear potentiometer
(full scale deflection 1 Kohm, previously positioned at aruond 500 ohm
between the centre pin and one of the side ones) to the pins for
the electrical connector of the linear sensor.
Place the key in the ON positionUsing a multimeter, check that the voltage between
pins 2 (earth) and 3 is about 2.5 V.Start up the engine and switch the air conditioning on,
using the special switch located on the climate control unit.The climate control system should work properly under
these circumstances.Vary the potentiometer resistance until
the reading on the multimeter between pins 1 (earth) and 3 is about
0V.Under these conditions, the air conditioning system
goes off provided the engine control Node receives a low pressure
signal from the circuit.Vary the potentiometer resistance until
the reading on the multimeter between pins 1 (earth) and 3 is about
4.6V.Under these conditions, the air conditioning system
goes off provided the engine control Node receives a low pressure
signal from the circuit.
