Toyota Corolla Cross: Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Short to Ground (P053011)

Toyota Corolla Cross (2022-2024) Service Manual / Vehicle Interior / Heating / Air Conditioning / Air Conditioning System (for Gasoline Model With Manual Air Conditioning System) / Refrigerant Pressure Sensor Circuit Short to Ground (P053011)

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioner pressure sensor, which is installed to the high pressure side pipe to detect refrigerant pressure, sends a refrigerant pressure signal to the air conditioning amplifier assembly. The air conditioning amplifier assembly converts this signal to a pressure value according to the sensor characteristics and uses it to control the compressor.

DTC No.
