III. Function of each control element 

1.Relay (condensator’ fan/electric magnetic clutch) 

The relay is used to control condensator fan motor and electric magnetic clutch 

respectively. As far as the air conditioning (compressor) is running, the condensator 

fan will work continuously.   

2.Electric magnetic clutch 

The electric magnetic clutch engages so as to start up the compressor only when air 

conditioning is turned on. The electric magnetic clutch is controlled by ECU. 

3.Thermistor of the evaporator 

When the evaporating temperature falls to 1℃(34°F) or below, the raditor fin of the 

evaporator will frost or freeze, which then results in air flow volume decreasing and 

ineffective refrigerating. Thermistor is a kind of sensor for avoiding frosting and icing. 

The thermistor fitted in the evaporator converts the vaporating temperature into 

resistance value which then is sent to      amplifier of the air conditioner. 

4.Cooling liquid (water) temperature sensor 

When the temperature of the cooling water is too low, the ECU will stop the 

compressor by disconnecting the relay of the compressor clutch. 

The high-low pressure protection switch is used for control. When the pressure of the 

circular refrigerant becomes too low or too high due to leakage or insufficient, the 

switch will turn off the compressor. 

This high-low pressure protection switch is fitted in the high pressure pipe behind the 

stock solution drier.

Below 103(230℃)…on 

 

When starting engine makes the engine start…off 

Evaporator temperature: 

When the air conditioner’s switch on 

 

Over 2.5(36.5℉)…off 

Below 4.0(39.2℉)…on 

 

When accelerating quickly 

(air throttle opening is up to 90% within 10 s)

1、

principle of operation:

 

When startup a car, the ignition cell (+)12V will supply power to ECU, duty relay 

and the main relay coil respectively, the duty relay closes and ECU makes the main 

relay close after receiving the ignition signal.   

+12V from the duty relay switch is divided into two lines. One line supplies power to 

defroster via F15(15A) to the back defrosting switch and grounds by connecting the 

back defrosting switch indicator. When the defrosting switch is on the back defroster 

will work normally. Connects the switch of the air blower and select different gear, 

the air blower will work at that gear. When close the air blower switch and the A/C 

switch singnal will be sent to ECU, then the air conditioner relay operates after the 

ECU receiving the signal and now the compressor works normally.
