Inspection
1.
Ignition "OFF"
2.
Disconnect the connector of mode control actuator.
3.
Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the defrost mode when connecting 12V to the terminal 3 and grounding terminal 4.
4.
Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the vent mode when connecting in the reverse.

5.
Check the voltage between terminals 5 and 6.
Door position
Voltage (5-6)
Error detecting
Vent
0.3 ± 0.15V
Low voltage : 0.1V or less
Defrost
4.7 ± 0.15V
High voltage : 4.9V or more

It will feedback current position of actuator to controls.
6.
If the measured voltage is not specification, substitute with a known-good mode control actuator and check for proper operation.
7.
If the problem is corrected, replace the mode control actuator.
Replacement
1.
Disconnect the negative (-) battery terminal.
2.
Remove the crash pad lower panel (A)

3.
