A/C Compressor Solenoid Valve

The air conditioning (A/C) compressor solenoid valve is integral with the air conditioning (A/C) compressor. Operation of the solenoid valve is controlled by the automatic temperature control (ATC) module using a hardwired drive current of differing values. By controlling the flow of refrigerant through the compressor, the solenoid valve can control the air conditioning (A/C) system pressure and the evaporator operating temperature.
