AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Using a variety of sensors, this automatic heater and air
conditioner accurately senses outside air temperature,
solar radiation quantity, evaporator's blowing
temperature, and interior temperature, then enters
these data to the automatic heater/air conditioner
control unit (equipped wi th the built- in micro-co mputer).
The data provided to the control unit enables to
automatically control blow temperature and blow air
quantity, turn on or off the compressor and switch the
blow port as well as switching between the fresh air
intake and interior air circulation.
Resetti ng the aut omatic function a llows you to switc h to
the manual control mode.
The self-diagnoisis function of the automatic air
conditioner control unit (with the built-in micro-
computer) allows the unit to access and diagnose a
failed part easier and quicker.

FUNCTIONS AND FEATURES
Automatic interior temperature control
This function enables to maintain the interior
temperature at the level specified from the
temperature control switch despite of changes in
factors such as vehicle speeds, outside air
temperature and number of passengers.
Maximum cooling and heating function
You can select FC (Full cool, namely maximum cooling
temperature) or FH (Full heat, maximum heating
temperature) from the temperature control lever.
Automatic air flow control
Air flow is automatically and consecutively fine tuned
according to the specified interior temperature and
changes in aperture of the heater unit mix door.
Mode (blow port) control
This function automatically selects either one of the
VENT, BI-LEVEL, FOOT or DEF mode for the blow
port according to changes of temperature on the
blow port. Using the mode switch allows you to
select a desired blow port manually.
Intake (switching between the fresh air intake and
circulation of interior air) control

860RW026
EndOFCallout
The mode and mix actuators are common actuators
with the built-in potentiometer. For the intake actuator,
the contact switch type is selected.
The potentiometer is a register assembled to the printed
circuit board of the mix and mode actuators. It detects
the air mix door position specified by rotation of the
output axis as a ratio of the variable terminal (VM)
voltage against the reference voltage (VDD: 5V), then
signals the value to the automatic air conditioner control
unit.
C01RX016
Movement of Mix Actuator
Position of the air mix door is determined by the
controller on the automatic heater/air conditioner control
unit.
As the heat or cool side of the controller is grounded,
the transistor on the driver is activated and, thus, the
motor rotation is turned on. The sliding contact
connected to the motor sends the position detection
signal from the potentiometer to the automatic air
conditioner control unit. As the set temperature and
interior temperature ar e balanced, the con troller retur ns
to the neutral and the motor rotation is stopped.

clockwise or counter clockwise motor rotation direction.
Grounding the controller VENT or DEF side after the
directi on selection a ctivates the trans istor on the dri ver,
thus turning on the motor rotation. Accompanying the
motor rotation, the sliding contact rotates, too. When
the target position is reached, the controller on the
control unit returns to the neutral and the motor stops.

Movement of Intake Actuator
The controller on the automatic air conditioner control
unit selects an intake mode to be used.
As the Terminal No.5 C65 is grounded via the sliding
contact on the terminal plate, the transistor on the driver
is activated, thus turning on the motor rotation. Then,
accompanying move of the motor, the sliding contact
rotates until grounding of the Terminal No.5 C65 is
removed, thus stopping the motor.

OVERVIEW OF AUTOMATIC
CONTROL OF AUTOMATIC AIR
CONDITIONER
The auto mati c heater a nd a ir c ond itio n er on thi s ve hic le
has the following features:
Interior temp er ature contr ol .
Air flow control.
Mode (blow port) control.
Intake (switching between fresh air and interior air)
control.
Heater start timing control.
C o ole r start timing control .
Compressor ON/OFF function according to outside
air temperature level.
Evaporator anti-freeze control.
Interior Temperature Control
The automatic air conditioner control unit operates on
the setup temperature signal from the temperature
control switch and other sensor signals to derive the
total signal. Then, the cont rol unit c ompares this sig nal
against the signal from the potentiometer to determine
rotation direction of the mix actuator. The mix actuator
moves the air mix door to the aperture specified by the
total signal so that the specified interior temperature is
achieved.
If the compressor is turned off in the A/C (air
conditioning) mode, aperture of the air mix door is offset
according to the outside air temperature or the specified
interior temperature. This function removes the
difference in the blowing temperature in this state and
that of when the compressor is turned on.
When FH or FC is selected for the setup temperature,
the air mix door is accordingly fixed to the Full Heat or
Full Cool mode.
When the VENT mode is selected, aperture of the air
mix door is controlled so that excessively heated air
may not be blown from the VENT blow port.
C01RY00015
Air Flow Control
In t he Auto Mode
The automatic air conditioner control unit operates on
the setup temperature signal and other sensor
signals to derive the total signal. Then, the control
unit adjusts base potential of the power transistor to
match it to the voltage pattern of the target fan so that
stage-less fan speed control can be achieved.
When solar radiation quantity is detected in the VENT
or B/L mode, the control unit increases the minimum
fan voltage to offset.
When FH or FC is selected from the temperature
control s witch, a ir flow i s accor dingly f ixed t o MAX H I
or AUTO HI.
In the Manual Mode
Air flow specified from the fan switch is entered to the
automatic air conditioner control unit as the manual
signal. The signal modifies the air flow to the level
specif ied from t he fan s witch s o that the required fan
voltage is attained.
C01RY00008
Mode (Blow Po rt) Control
The automatic air conditioner control unit operates on
the setup temperature from the control switch, and
temperature and solar radiation quantify from the
sensors to determine the total mode control signal.
According to the pattern specified by this signal, the
control unit selects either one of the VENT, BI-LEVEL,
FOOT or DEF/FOOT mode.
The mode actuator determines the rotation direction
comparing the target position against the current
position being determined by the position detection
signal.
When FH or FC is selected for the temperature from the
temperature control switch, mode is accordingly fixed to
the VENT or FOOT.
In the manual oper ation of the mode switc h, you can
select a desired blow port mode pressing the
corresponding mode switch.
Operating the DEF mode switch selects the DEF for
the blow port mode.
C01RY00009
Intake (Fresh air/interior air switching)
Control
In the Full Auto mode, the automatic heater/air
conditioner control unit operates on the setup
temperature signal and other sensor input signals to
derive the total signal. According to the pattern
specified by this signal, the control unit provides the
intake control.
When the fan is turned off or the A/C (air conditioning) is
turned off, the intake is fixed to the FRESH mode.
When FC or FH is selecte d from the contro l switch, the
intake mode is accordingly fixed to the RECIRC or
FRESH.
In the Manual Operation
Pressing the FRESH (fresh air intake) or the RECIRC
(room air circulation) accordingly selects t he FRESH
or RECIRC mode.
When the DEF Mode Switch is depressed
The intake mode is fixed to the FRESH. When the
MANU REC is selected, however, the mode is fixed
the RECIRC.
When the Mode Switch is depressed
If the automatic intake control is selected, the intake
is fixed to the currently selected mode.
C01RY00012
Compressor Control
In the automatic control mode, the automatic air
conditioner control unit turns on or off the compressor
with the evaporator anti-freeze mechanism using the
evaporation sensor. And, when outside air is detected
to be low through the outside air temperature sensor
signal, the control unit turns off the compressor using
the compressor control function.
Manual Control
In the automatic control mode, pressing the A/C (air
conditioning) switch turns off the compressor.
Pressing the DEF mode switch automatically turns on
the compressor.
C01RY00010
Heating Start Timing Control
When th e auto mat ic air c ond iti one r is s tarted , hea tin g is
turned on only when the coolant temperature detected
by the coolant temperature sensor is 18°C or less and
total signal derived from the sensor signals has
detected that the heating condition is met.
If the coolant temperature detected by the sensor is
18°C or less, 4.5V is set for the blower fan motor
terminal voltage and the DEF is selected for the blow
port mode.
When the tempe rature detect ed by the sensor is ab ove
18°C, the blow port mode is switched to the Auto
Control and the voltage across the blower fan motor
terminal is linearly increased from 4.5V to auto control
voltage (auto airflow).
840RX015
Cooling Start Timing Control
Whe n the aut omatic air con dit ioner is started, cooli ng is
turned on only when the temperature detected by the
interior temperature sensor is 30°C or above and the
total signal derived from the sensor signals has
detected that the cooling condition is met.
When the cooling condition has been met, the fan
voltage across the blower fan motor terminal is set to
4.5V for 7 seconds maximum, then it is linearly
increased up to the auto airflow level at the rate of 0.6V/
sec.
C06RX003
TROUBLESHOOTING
TROUBLESHOOTING, ITS OVERVIEW AND PROCEDURES
The automatic heater and air conditioner equips with the
“Self-Diagnosis Function" to check its major
components.
This function makes access to the sensors, actuators
and blower fan motor system easier when checking
them up and, when a failed part is located, thi s function
restores its original performance.
When implementing the troubleshooting, this
self-diagnosis function narrows the range to be
searche d at th e fi rst s tep, t hen check rele va nt parts one

switch and the DEF switch on the control panel, and the
table will appear in approximately 10 seconds to the
indicator lamp (LED) of the air conditioning switch.
Result of the diagnosis along the following 9 items will
be shown one by one in 0.5 second in ter v al irre spective
of presence or absence of a trouble for a given item.
When the display 9 items is completed, it is repeated
with 3 seconds of interval in between. A failed item is
indicated by flashing of the LED that is repeated 3 times
within 0.5 seconds. If a trouble is indicated, you can
locate the failed section by knowing when in the total
sequence it has been displayed.

As shown above, display of result along nine items is
repeated with 3-second interval in between.
Note 1: When checking the solar radiation sensor , apply
sufficient light using a 60W bulb. Otherwise, it can be
diagnosed as failed.
Note 2: If the temperature setting lever is set on both
ends (one set to 18°C, blue scale = Full cool and the
other to 31°C, red scale = Full hot), they can be
diagnosed as failed.
Note 3: Likewise, the fan switch can be diagnosed as
failed if set on both ends.
Displaying the Past Trouble Diagnosing Table
The past trouble diagnosis displays only the items on
which trouble has recurred 16 times in the past.
If you press the air conditioning switch once while the
current trouble diagnosis is taking place, display of the
past trouble diagn osis will appear on the indicat or lamp
(LED) of the air conditioning switch.
Results of the diagnosis along the following five items
are displayed one by one in 0.5 second interval
irrespective of presence or absence of a trouble. A
failed item is indicated by flashing of the LED that is
repeated 3 times within 0.5 seconds. You can locate the
