Remote Climate Control Module

The Remote Climate Control (RCC) module uses a microcomputer to analyze inputs from the in-car temperature sensor, ambient air temperature sensor, sunload sensor and function inputs made at the ICP by vehicle occupants.

Using these inputs, the RCC module determines the correct outputs for A/C compressor clutch engagement and blower speed. The RCC module also determines outputs controlling the A/C air temperature control door, heater air damper door, windshield defroster door, and the A/C air inlet door positions.

The A/C air temperature control door is operated by an electric door actuator motor. The remaining distribution doors are controlled by vacuum actuated motors.
