| Inspection |
| 1. |
Ignition "ON" |
| 2. |
Using the scan tool. |
| 3. |
Emit intensive light toward photo sensor using a lamp, and check the output voltage change. |
| 4. |
The voltage will rise with higher intensive light and reduce with lower intensive light.
|
| Replacement |
| 1. |
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal. |
| 2. |
With the (-) driver, remove the photo sensor (A) from the center of defrost nozzle.
|
| 3. |
Install in the reverse order of removal. |
Description 1. The photo sensor is located at the center of defrost nozzle. 2. The photo sensor contains a photovoltaic (sensitive to sunlight) diode.
Description 1. The ambient temperature sensor is located at the front of the condenser and detects ambient air temperature. It is a negative type thermistor resistance will increase with lower temperature, and decrease with higher temperatures.
Replacement 1. Discharge refrigerant from refrigeration system. 2. Replace faulty tube or hose. Cap the open fittings immediately to keep moisture or dirt out of the system. 3. Tighten joint of bolt or nut to specified torque.
Inspection 1. Ignition "OFF". 2. Disconnect evaporator temperature sensor. 3. Using the multi-tester, Measure resistance between terminal "1" and "2" of evaporator temperature sensor. Specification Evaporator coretemperature [°C(°F)]Resistance[KΩ]Voltage[V]-20(-4)70.
