High Pressure Sensor -G65-, Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805-
Courtesy of AUDI OF AMERICA, LLC
- This High Pressure Sensor -G65- is installed instead of the A/C Pressure Switch -F129- or the A/C Pressure/Temperature Sensor -G395-.
- The Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- replaces the High Pressure Sensor -G65- on specific vehicles from a specific version and from a specific date of manufacture.
- When a voltage is applied, a version of the High Pressure Sensor -G65- generates a square wave signal and the others a data telegram. This signal changes along with pressure in the system. When voltage is applied, the other versions and the Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- exchange information with the Data Bus (i.e. via the "LIN-Bus") with the corresponding control module. Refer to Refrigerant Circuit
.
- On Audi A3 from MY 2005 and Audi Q3. a High Pressure Sensor -G65- is installed, for example, which emits its measured values to the corresponding control module (for example to the A/C Control Module -J301- or the Climatronic Control Module -J255-). On Audi Q7 from MY 2016, a High Pressure Sensor -G65- is installed, for example, which sends its measured values via a "LIN Bus". Use the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester ("OBD" function or A/C system"Guided Fault Finding"
) and the appropriate
Wiring Diagram.
- The Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- is installed on the Audi A3 from MY 2013, for example. It exchanges information with the corresponding control module (on Audi A3, the A/C Control Module -J301- or the Climatronic Control Module -J255-) via a Data Bus cable. Refer to the appropriate
Wiring Diagram
- The A/C Pressure/Temperature Sensor -G395-, the Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- and the High Pressure Sensor -G65- are available in different versions. Currently the sensor's only exterior difference is the parts number. Therefore, make sure that the part numbers are correctly allocated when replacing them (part number Parts Information). Reason: These sensors produce different signals that can only be evaluated by the respective control modules using the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester (function "OBD" or"Guided Fault Finding"
for the A/C system). Refer to Refrigerant Circuit
.
- The High Pressure Sensor -G65- and the Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- only transmits the measured value for the refrigerant circuit pressure to the connected control module. The A/C Pressure/Temperature Sensor -G395- transmits the measured value for the refrigerant circuit pressure and the measured temperature to the connected control module. Even though only the pressure signal is evaluated on a vehicle, an A/C Pressure/Temperature Sensor -G395- is not and must not be installed on a vehicle for which a High Pressure Sensor -G65- or a Refrigerant Circuit Pressure Sensor -G805- is designed. Refer to Parts Information.
- The downstream control modules (Radiator Fan Control Module, Engine Control Module, Front A/C Display Control Head -E87- or Climatronic Control Module -J255-, etc.) use this signal to calculate the refrigerant circuit pressure and activate the radiator fans, the motor, and the A/C Clutch -N25- if necessary, or to change the activation of the A/C Compressor Regulator Valve -N280-. Use the Vehicle Diagnostic Tester ("OBD" or"Guided Fault Finding"
function). Refer to Refrigerant Circuit
