Cooling is Poor [08/2020 - ]: Procedure

1. Confirm setup of the ECO drive mode and turn it off if it is on.

   HINT: 

   • When ECO drive mode is on, the air conditioning amplifier assembly ensures a minimum level of air conditioning control based on certain conditions, thereby contributing to improved fuel efficiency. Accordingly, explain to customers that the air volume will be weaker in these situations.

     Control	Control Summary
     Airflow Control	Automatically switches the air inlet port to the internal air circulation mode when the outside air temperature is equal to or higher than a predetermined temperature and reduces the power consumption.
     Air Inlet Control	Sets the blower level in AUTO mode lower than normal, and suppresses the power consumption.

   • If integration control and panel assembly (ECO switch) is malfunctioning, perform diagnosis on the ECO switch circuit.

     Refer to ECO Switch Circuit [02/2019 - ]

6. Install a manifold gauge set.

   Refer to ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION [02/2019 - ]

7. Read the manifold gauge pressure when the following conditions are met.
   1. Prepare the vehicle according to the table below.
      MEASUREMENT CONDITION:
      
      

      Item	Condition
      Vehicle Condition	Ignition switch ON (READY)
      Doors	Fully closed (windows also fully closed)
      A/C Switch	On
      Recirculation/fresh Control Switch	Recirculation
      Set Temperature	MAX COLD
      Blower Speed	HI
      Air Conditioning Air Inlet Temperature	25 to 35°C (77 to 95°F)

      Standard Pressure

      Low pressure side 

      150 to 250 kPa (1.5 to 2.5 kgf/cm ² , 22 to 36 psi)

      High pressure side 

      1370 to 1570 kPa (14 to 16 kgf/cm ² , 199 to 228 psi)

8. Compare the values displayed in the Data List and on the manifold gauge.

   OK

   The values displayed in the Data List and on the manifold gauge match.
