RM38T0EC _58 Vehicle Interior _104612 HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING _0601796 AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for HEV Model) C

HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING  AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for HEV Model)  P053015  Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Short to Battery or Open  


DESCRIPTION

The air conditioner pressure sensor, which is installed to the high pressure side pipe to detect refrigerant pressure, sends a refrigerant pressure signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly. The air conditioning amplifier assembly converts this signal to a pressure value according to the sensor characteristics and uses it to control the compressor.
