A/C Request Signal

A/C Request Signal
The A/C request circuit signals the VCM when an A/C mode is selected at the A/C control head. The VCM uses this information in order to enable the A/C compressor clutch and to adjust the idle speed before turning ON the A/C clutch. If this signal is not available to the VCM, the A/C compressor will be inoperative.

Refer to A/C Clutch Circuit Diagnosis for A/C wiring diagrams and diagnosis of the A/C electrical system.
