Four Seasons HVAC Pressure Switch P/N:35838
Help keep your truck's A/C system working within safe pressure limits with the Four Seasons switch 35889, a system-mounted trinary pressure switch that monitors refrigerant pressure and combines three switch functions in one unit. It fits many commercial trucks, among them the 1988-1992 Peterbilt 376, 1989-1997 Kenworth T400 and 1988-1990 Kenworth C540. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
A trinary switch typically provides low-pressure and high-pressure cutouts that help protect the compressor. Its third switch point is commonly used for cooling-fan control. Four Seasons engineers and tests the 35889 and builds it for specific vehicle applications, backed by more than 50 years of mobile A/C experience.
Signs this part may need replacing: The compressor won't engage or cycles erratically, the vents blow warm air, or the cooling fan doesn't respond as expected with the A/C on. These signs can have other causes, so diagnose the system before you replace parts. If a failed pressure switch is the cause, the 35889 replaces it. For installation, consult the vehicle service information and follow proper A/C service procedures.
What does a trinary pressure switch do?
It monitors A/C refrigerant pressure and combines three switch functions. These are typically low- and high-pressure cutouts that help protect the compressor, plus a switch point commonly used for cooling-fan control.
Which trucks does part 35889 fit?
It fits many commercial trucks, including the 1988-1992 Peterbilt 376, 1989-1997 Kenworth T400 and 1988-1990 Kenworth C540. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list.
Does it come with gaskets or O-rings?
Yes. Four Seasons packages the switch with the gaskets, O-rings or seals intended to properly replace the product.
What signs may point to a failing A/C pressure switch?
Signs include a compressor that won't engage or cycles erratically, warm air from the vents, or a cooling fan that doesn't respond as expected. Diagnose the system first, because other faults cause the same signs.
Is the switch protected against corrosion?
Yes. The switch is zinc-coated to resist corrosion, and it is color coded for easy identification.
