Throttle Full Open Switch HVAC: Description and Operation

Kickdown Switch

Purpose and Operation

The kickdown switch is located below the accelerator pedal. When the accelerator is fully depressed in the kickdown position, it closes and sends a
ground signal to terminal 9 of the control panel head. This will turn off the A/C compressor for approximately 12 seconds.

The switch is used only on cars equipped with automatic transmissions.
