DESCRIPTION
This circuit cuts air conditioning operation during vehicle acceleration in order to increase acceleration performance. During acceleration with the vehicle speed at 30 km/h (19 mph) or less and the accelerator pedal opening angle at 45° or more, the A/C magnetic switch is turned off for several seconds.
The air conditioning is also controlled using the engine coolant temperature output from the ECM to the A/C amplifier.
