A/C Compressor Clutch Relay: Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Grand Caravan, 2005 Dodge Caravan, and 2005 Chrysler Town & Country. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The A/C clutch relay is a International Standards Organization (ISO) micro-relay. Relays conforming to the ISO specifications have common physical dimensions, current capacities, terminal functions and patterns. The ISO micro-relay terminal functions are the same as a conventional ISO relay. However, the ISO micro-relay terminal pattern (or footprint) is different, the current capacity is lower, and the physical dimensions are smaller than those of the conventional ISO relay. See Fig 1.

The A/C clutch relay is located in the integrated power module (IPM) in the engine compartment.
