Four Seasons A/C Trinary Switch P/N:20962
Help protect your A/C compressor with this Four Seasons switch, part number 20991, a system-mounted trinary pressure switch that monitors refrigerant pressure. It fits several vehicles, including the 1999-2003 Lexus RX300, 1994-1998 Mitsubishi Galant and 1991-1992 Mitsubishi Mirage. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for full fitment details.
A trinary switch combines three pressure-sensing jobs in one unit. It opens the compressor circuit when refrigerant pressure is too low or too high, and it provides a mid-pressure signal commonly used to control the condenser fan. Four Seasons engineers and tests its products and backs them with more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience.
Signs this switch may need replacing include a compressor that won't engage or cycles erratically, a condenser fan that doesn't come on, or warm air from the vents. Other A/C faults can cause these symptoms, so diagnose the system before replacing parts. Follow the vehicle service information for installation, and use proper recovery equipment for any work that opens the refrigerant circuit.

Does this work as a 1991-1992 Mitsubishi Mirage switch replacement for the A/C?
Yes. The 1991-1992 Mitsubishi Mirage is a listed application for Four Seasons 20991. The Buyer's Guide tab shows every listed vehicle.
What does an A/C trinary switch do?
It senses refrigerant pressure for three functions. It cuts out the compressor if pressure is too low or too high, and it gives a mid-pressure signal commonly used to control the condenser fan.
What comes in the box with the 20991 switch?
Four Seasons states that the switch contains the gaskets, O-rings or seals needed to properly replace the product.
What are signs a trinary switch may need replacing?
Possible signs are a compressor that won't engage or cycles erratically, a condenser fan that stays off, or warm vent air. Other A/C faults cause these too, so diagnose the system first.
Is this switch protected against corrosion?
Yes. The switch is zinc coated to resist corrosion, and it is color coded for easy identification.
