Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit - Air Conditioning System





HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM: B1422/22: Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit
B1422/22 - Compressor Lock Sensor Circuit

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The ECM sends the engine speed signal to the A/C amplifier via CAN communication.

The A/C amplifier reads the difference between compressor speed and engine speed. When the difference becomes too large, the A/C amplifier determines that the compressor is locked, and turns the magnetic clutch off.
