Title: HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM: Air Conditioning Compressor Magnetic Clutch Circuit; 2016 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 08/2016]

Air Conditioning Compressor Magnetic Clutch Circuit

DESCRIPTION

When the air conditioning amplifier is turned on, a magnet clutch ON signal is sent from the MGC terminal of the air conditioning amplifier. Then, the magnet-clutch relay (A/C MG relay) turns on to operate the magnet clutch.
