This DTC is stored if the amount of refrigerant in the air conditioning system is insufficient.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly receives the ambient temperature signal, refrigerant pressure signal, etc. from various sensors.

Based on these signals, the air conditioning amplifier assembly detects the amount of refrigerant.

The A/C switch indicator is turned off and the air conditioning system is stopped if the amount of refrigerant is insufficient.
