Where is the AC clutch relay located?

Where is the AC clutch relay located?

Locate the air conditioner clutch relay by tracing the wire connection from the air conditioner compressor plug-in to the relay. In most cases, the relay is mounted on the fender well or fire wall. The relay in a typical A/C control installation has a three-wire connection.

How is the A c compressor relay controlled?

They use an electromagnet (coil) that controls an arm that swings between two contacts. As low current passes through the coil, a magnetic field is created that draws the relay’s arm towards the high current circuit. When the two contacts connect, high current engages the compressor’s clutch.

When to move on to the clutch relay?

Move on to the clutch relay if the fuse turns out fine. In a few car models, the power of the air conditioning system flows from the AC switch to the fuse before being transmitted to the clutch oil through the low-pressure evaporator temperature. You have to make sure that the compressor has enough oil to function properly.

Is there a relay for the compressor clutch?

Okay, there is no relay for the compressor clutch, it is solid state. The PCM sends a signal to the TIPM and then off to the compressor. It is based on the input from the pressure sensors and the TIPM look at the wiring diagrams above to see for yourself!

What are the numbers on a clutch relay?

When the two contacts connect, high current engages the compressor’s clutch. A standard has been developed for the plug of a mechanical relay. The relay uses numbers 85 and 86 as the electromagnet control.

How can I Check my AC compressor clutch?

Use a digital voltmeter to measure the ground and voltage of the battery at the detached connector cable. Go on to check the fuse if you cannot read the voltage readings. Move on to the clutch relay if the fuse turns out fine.

Which is relay in the tipm would control the clutch?

There is no relay, the PCM controls the operation of the clutch. Chrysler 2008 to 2009 mini vans, the power-train control module controls the compressor clutch electrical circuit. helpful? Hello Roy. My understanding is the PCM is sends a signal to TIPM to activate the AC compressor clutch. Which relay in the TIPM would control the clutch? helpful?

Where is the relay on a mini van?

Okay, it is under Town and Country. There is no relay, the PCM controls the operation of the clutch. Chrysler 2008 to 2009 mini vans, the power-train control module controls the compressor clutch electrical circuit. helpful? Hello Roy.
