A/C Request Signal

The A/C request circuit signals the PCM when an A/C mode is selected at the A/C control head. The PCM uses this information 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 PCM, the A/C compressor will be inoperative. For vehicles equipped with CJ2 A/C, the A/C request is sent via Class 2 Serial Data communications.

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