Evaporator temperature, value (Electronic climate control, Manual climate control)
Measurement range: -40 - 85°C
The climate control module (CCM) calculates the temperature based on the signal from the evaporator temperature sensor.
The value is used to control the air conditioning (A/C) compressor.
In normal operation (engine running and A/C selected) the control module can regulate the compressor in the following way:
- 10°C air conditioning (A/C) compressor on
- 6.5°C air conditioning (A/C) compressor off.
At temperatures below 6°C the compressor is not permitted to operate because of the risk of freezing.
