Overview

Tesla gen 1 A/C compressor

There are two known variants of A/C compressors used in Model S & X. The first generation is a unit by Denso which can be controlled via PWM. Later units built by HVCC and Hanon are CAN-controlled - details for controlling these variants are currently unknown.

Early years of Model S (2013-2014) used an ES34C by Denso with part number 6007380-00-D.

Later models (2015+) used a HVCC ESC33 with Tesla part number 1028398-00-E, 1028398-00-F and 1028398-00-J. Tesla also used the Hanon HES33 and is found with number 1063369-00-D, 1063369-00-E, 1063369-00-F and 1063369-00-G. As mentioned previously, both these later types are unfortunately CAN controlled and details remain unknown.

As mentioned above, the Denso ES34C can be controlled using a PWM signal.

Connect 12V + in to pin 7 and provide chassis ground to pin 1. Pin 4 and 8 are not connected (don’t even have a male terminal in the compressor connector). You can leave the power feedback (pin 5) and diagnostics (pin 3) unconnected too.

The compressor is enabled by grouding pin 2 (active low) and speed control via a PWM signal on pin 6.

Success! I got the ES34C running. It is very easy to control and very tolerant of input conditions. It takes a PWM signal anywhere from 35 to 400 hz. Control range is from 5% (max speed) to 85% (min speed) duty cycle.

I supplied 12V to Pin 7 (VIgn), Grounded pins 1 (Gnd) and 2 (On/Off), and left pins 3 (Diag) and 5 (Power (FB)) unconnected. The 12V PWM signal was input to pin 6 (PWMin).

Wiring/Connectors

Polarity of the HV connector (as looking into the connector):

Details of the connector itself are currently unknown, though an HV cable from a Lexus hybrid (i.e. GS450H) A/C compressor has been known to work if a Tesla assembly can't be sourced.
