HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING  AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for Gasoline Model (NR Series) with Manual Air Conditioning System for Mechanical Control Type)  B1423  Open in Pressure Sensor Circuit / Abnormal Refrigerant Pressure  


DESCRIPTION

This DTC is stored if refrigerant pressure on the high pressure side is extremely low (0.176 MPaG (1.8 kgf/cm2, 26 psi) or less) or extremely high (3.025 MPaG (30.8 kgf/cm2, 439 psi) or more). 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.
