Toyota RAV4 (XA40) 2013-2018 Service Manual: Compressor lock sensor circuit
Description
This sensor sends 1 pulse per engine revolution to the air conditioning amplifier. If the ratio of the compressor speed divided by the engine speed is smaller than a predetermined value, the air conditioning amplifier turns the compressor off, and the indicator blinks at approximately 1 second intervals.

Pressure sensor circuit
Description
This dtc is output when the refrigerant pressure is either extremely low
(0.19 Mpa [2.0 Kgf/cm2, 28 psi]
or less) or extremely high (3.14 Mpa [32.0 Kgf/cm2, 455 psi] or more). The ...

Evaporator temperature sensor circuit
Description
The no. 1 Cooler thermistor (evaporator temperature sensor) is installed on
the evaporator in the air
conditioning unit to detect the temperature of the cooled air that has passed
through the evaporator and to
control the air conditioner. It sends signals to the air conditioni ...
