Detailed Description
The Universal Air Pressure Transducer SW11173C is an HVAC pressure transducer for vehicles that rely on accurate refrigerant pressure input to manage air conditioning operation. This part number is cataloged for multiple GM platforms, including Chevrolet Volt and Bolt EV, plus full-size truck and SUV applications such as Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500, Tahoe, Yukon, and Escalade. If you are replacing a failed Chevrolet Tahoe HVAC pressure transducer or a Chevrolet Silverado 1500 pressure transducer, SW11173C matches the listed application coverage.
This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.
Common Repair Symptoms
- Inaccurate A/C pressure readings in the HVAC system
- Compressor cycling issues tied to pressure signal faults
- Air conditioning performance problems on Chevrolet Volt, Bolt EV, and other GM models
- HVAC warning or control issues related to refrigerant pressure input
- Loss of proper climate control operation in listed Cadillac, GMC, and Chevrolet vehicles
Installation Notes and Tips
Verify the vehicle year, make, and model against the fitment list before ordering. Confirm the connector style and sensor location on the existing HVAC pressure transducer before installation. After replacement, clear any HVAC-related fault codes and check system operation with the engine running and the A/C system commanded on.
