→ Pin assignment for air conditioner pressure switch -F129
Switch between contact 1 and 2 (opens in the event of vacuum and overpressure in the refrigerant circuit - the compressor is switched off)
Switch between contacts 3 and 4 (closes if pressure increases in the refrigerant circuit - the radiator fan is switched to 2nd speed)
Pin assignment at refrigerant temperature switch -F18 / -F54
Switch -F54 (between contact 1 and 2 closes at approx. 95 °C - the radiator fans are switched to 1st speed).
Switch -F18 (between contact 3 and 2 closes at approx. 102 °C - the radiator fans are switched to 2nd speed).
Refrigerant temperature control switch (too hot) -F14
Switch opens at approx. 118 °C - the compressor is switched off.
Note:
Only installed in vehicles with pressure switch -F129
