Description - HVAC Forced RECIRCULATION
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Dodge Intrepid, 2004 Chrysler Intrepid, 2004 Chrysler Concorde, and 2004 Chrysler 300M. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The Body Control Module (BCM) receives a Programmable Communications Interface (PCI) bus message from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) with the feedback from the A/C Pressure Transducer. The BCM will force the system into the Recirculation mode, reducing the A/C refrigerant pressure under these extreme conditions. The reduced operating pressure offers improved A/C system performance and reduced wear on A/C components.
