Electronic Manual Temperature Control (EMTC) System

2009 Mercury Milan Premier, 3.0 1, AWDSECTION Electronic Manual Temperature Control (EMTC) System
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2009 Ford Mustang. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The EMTC system operation is determined by the settings on the climate control assembly. The climate control assembly includes a serviceable blower motor switch.

The blower motor switch:

  • sets the blower motor speed.
  • directs the blower motor path to ground through the blower motor resistor to allow blower motor operation in LO, MED LO and MED HI.
  • directs the blower motor path directly to ground, bypassing the blower motor resistor, to allow blower motor operation in HI.

The A/C request switch:

  • can command the A/C compressor ON when the function selector switch is in PANEL, FLOOR/PANEL, FLOOR/DEFROST and FLOOR when the A/C request switch is pressed. Indicator illuminates when A/C request switch is toggled ON.
  • can command the A/C compressor OFF in FLOOR/DEFROST if RECIRC is commanded OFF.
  • is inoperative in MAX A/C, OFF and DEFROST.
  • indicator illuminates when the function selector switch is in MAX A/C and cannot be toggled.
  • indicator does not illuminate in OFF and cannot be toggled.
  • indicator in FLOOR/DEFROST and DEFROST does not change. The A/C compressor will operate regardless of indicator status if the outside air temperature is above 2Β°C (35Β°F).
  • is serviced only with the climate control assembly.

The function selector switch:

  • selects airflow direction.
  • is serviced only with the climate control assembly.
NOTE: Recirculated air only is used when the EMTC mode selector is set in the MAX A/C or OFF modes or if the RECIRC request button is selected in any mode except MAX A/C, OFF or DEFROST.

The air recirculation button:

  • selects either recirculated or outside air source.
  • is serviced only with the climate control assembly.
