WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2012 Jaguar XFR, 2012 Jaguar XF, 2011 Jaguar XFR, 2011 Jaguar XF, and 2010 Jaguar XFR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
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.
