Four Seasons HVAC Binary Switch P/N:36574
Help protect your A/C compressor from unsafe refrigerant pressure with this Four Seasons switch, part number 20953. It is a system-mounted binary pressure switch built as a direct-fit replacement for the 1993 Mazda 626, 1992-1993 Mazda MX-3 and 1992-1993 Mazda MX-6. A binary switch monitors refrigerant pressure in the A/C system and opens the compressor clutch circuit when pressure drops too low or climbs too high, which helps guard the compressor against damage.
Four Seasons engineers and tests its products and backs them with more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience. A failed binary switch may cause a compressor that will not engage, warm air from the vents, or erratic compressor cycling. These symptoms can have other causes, so diagnose the system before replacing the switch. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine details.
