With Manual A/C
Part 1:
Part 2:
The manual climate control system heats or cools the vehicle interior depending on the function selector switch position and the temperature selected. The function selector position determines heating or cooling and air distribution. The temperature blend control setting determines air temperature.
The manual climate control system components are used to select:
- air inlet source (outside or recirculated).
- blower motor speed.
- discharge air temperature (temperature blend).
- discharge air location (defrost, panel, floor).
- A/C compressor clutch operation.
The climate control assembly has three system controls:
- The A/C heater function selector switch combines a vacuum selector valve with two electrical switches to supply battery voltage (B+) to the A/C clutch circuit and the blower motor speed control circuit.
- Temperature selection is accomplished with a potentiometer connected to the electric blend door. Movement of the control knob from COOL (Blue) to WARM (Red) causes a corresponding movement on the air temperature blend door and determines the temperature that the system will maintain.
- The blower motor switch controls blower motor speed by adding or bypassing resistors in the heater blower motor switch resistor.
