Schematic Diagram

Monitor DTC Status

1.	Connect scantool to Data Link Connector(DLC).

2.	Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.

3.	Monitor DTC(Diagnostics Trouble Code) on the scantool.

4.

Is the same DTC displayed again? ▶ Go to " Inspection/Repair " procedure . ▶ Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or A/C-ECM connector or was repaired and A/C-ECM memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poorconnection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and go to "Verification of vehicle Repair" procedure.

W/harness Inspection

1.	Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.

2.	Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration,or damage.

3.	Has a problem been found? ▶ Repair as necessary and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure ▶ Go to "Signal circuit Short Inspection" procedure.

Signal Circuit Short Inspection

1.	Ignition "OFF"

2.	A/C-ECU : Connect, Driver Direction actuator : Disconnect.

3.	Measure resistance between Signal(F/B) terminal of Driver Direction actuator harness connector and and Sensor ground terminal of Driver Direction actuator harness connector. Specification : Infinity

4.	Is "resistance" display near the specified value? ▶ Go to " Component inspection " procedure . ▶ Check for short in harness. ▶ Repair as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

Component Inspection

Check Driver air mix actuator

1.	Ignition "OFF"

2.	A/C-ECU, Driver Direction actuator : Disconnect.

3.	Connect (+) terminal of battery to WARM(+) of Driver Direction actuator and (-) terminal to COOL(-) .(Component side)

4.	Verify that the temperature actuator operates to the DEF position

5.

Verify that the temperature actuator operates to the VENT position with reverse connecting.( DEF(+) and VENT(-) ) .(Component side) Specification : Refer the specifications in fig.1 Actuator harness DEF (+) VENT (-) Door position Battery terminal 12 V ground VENT.Mode ground 12 V DEF.Mode ※ Function of the actuator motor according to terminal connection type. (observe safety regulations)

6.

Is "Door position" display near the specified value? ▶ Go to "Check potentiometer" procedure. ▶ Substitute with a known-good Driver air mix actuator and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Driver air mix actuator and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

1.	Ignition "OFF"

2.	A/C-ECU : Connect, Driver air mix actuator : Disconnect.

3.	Ignition "ON"(ENGINE "OFF").

4.

Measure voltage between Signal(F/B) terminal of Driver air mix actuator harness connector and and chassis ground .(Component side) Specification : Refer the specifications in fig.2 Door position Voltage Error Detecting Condition VENT 0.3±0.15V Undervoltage : 0.08V or less DEF 4.7±0.15V Overvoltage : 4.9V or more ※ Voltage value of Air Mix potentiometer as a function of temp door position.

5.

Is "voltage" display near the specified value? ▶ Check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure. ▶ Substitute with a known-good Driver Direction actuator and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace Driver air Direction actuator and then go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair" procedure.

Verification Of Vehicle Repair

1.	Connect scan tool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes(DTCs)" mode.

2.	Using scantool, Clear DTC.

3.	Operate the vehicle within DTC Enable conditions in General information.

4.	Are any DTCs present? ▶ Go to the applicable troubleshooting procedure. ▶ System is performing to specification at this time.
