Left Retaining Plate With Footwell Door Motor (V261)

Left Retaining Plate with Footwell Door Motor (V261)

The Footwell Door Motor is installed on vehicles equipped with the "Basis" A/C system

• The mounting plate with the Footwell Door Motor is installed only on vehicles equipped with the "Basis" A/C system.

• Mounting plate Footwell Door Motor, disassembling and assembling, refer to => [ Left Retaining Plate with Footwell Door Motor (V261) ] Left Retaining Plate With Footwell Door Motor (V261).

• Currently in this vehicle, all motors are identical in construction. During the basic setting, the control motors are assigned and adapted corresponding to the switching sequence of the wiring. If this sequence does not conform with the specification, the control motors will adapt incorrectly and the door control will be wrong. Refer to => [ A/C Control Motor Block Diagram ] A/C Control Motor Block Diagram.

• Depending on the production date, there are different versions of the levers and connections on the A/C unit. Refer to => [ Air Conditioner, Levers and Connecting Elements ] Air Conditioner, Levers and Connecting Elements and the Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

Removing

- Move the driver seat as far back as possible.

- Turn off the ignition.

- Remove the storage compartment under the dash panel on the driver side.

- Remove the left footwell vent (driver side). Refer to => [ Left Footwell Vents ] Left Footwell Vents.

- Remove the accelerator pedal module.

- Mark the connector - A - (to the Defroster Door Motor (V107) ) and - B - (Footwell Door Motor) and - C - ( Temperature Regulator Door Motor (V68) ) (to prevent confusion).






- Disconnect the connector - A - , - B - and - C -.

- Loosen the wiring harness - D - from the mounting points on the mounting plate - E -.

- Carefully disconnect the connector rods - A -, - B - and - C - from the levers on each door.






• The connecting rods (- A - through - C -) are clipped on to the levers; unclip them carefully so that the lever does not get damaged.

• Depending on the production date, there are different versions of the levers and connections on the A/C unit. Refer to => [ Air Conditioner, Levers and Connecting Elements ] Air Conditioner, Levers and Connecting Elements and the Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

- Remove screws - D -.

- Remove the mounting plate - E - (together with the control motor - F -, the lever, the cam plate and the connector rods) from the A/C.

Installing

Installation is carried out in the reverse order while observing the following.

- Apply a small quantity of grease (G 000 150) to the cam plate guides as well as to the pins at the door levers. Refer to Electronic Parts Catalog (ETKA).

- Make sure the levers, cam plates and connector rod mounting plates - A - are assembled correctly. Refer to => [ Left Retaining Plate with Footwell Door Motor (V261) ] Left Retaining Plate With Footwell Door Motor (V261).

- When installing the mounting plate - A - correctly insert the mounting plate pin - B - and the cam plate - C - into the A/C bracket.






- Install the screws - D -.






- Connect the various connector rods - A -, - B - and - C - from the levers on each door.

- Connect the connector - A - through - C - according to the markings.






- Mount the wiring harness - D - into the mounting points on the mounting plate - E -.

- Check the wiring harness routing - D - so that it cannot come in contact with any moving parts (such as levers).

- Install the removed parts in the opposite order.

- Switch on the ignition.

- Perform a basic setting and the output Diagnostic Test Mode (DTM) on the A/C system using the Vehicle diagnostic tester in "Guided Fault Finding".

• On this vehicle, the control motors are equipped with electronics. During the first basic setting, a new control motor learns its position on the air conditioner and can then be controlled by the Climatronic Control Module (J255) (currently all control motors are identical). Refer to the Vehicle diagnostic tester in "Guided Fault Finding".

• During the basic setting, the control motors are assigned and adapted corresponding to the switching sequence of the wiring. If this sequence does not conform the specification, the control motors will adapt incorrectly and the door control will be wrong. Refer to => [ A/C Control Motor Block Diagram ] A/C Control Motor Block Diagram.

- Check the Climatronic Control Module DTC memory and erase any displayed malfunction if necessary using the Vehicle diagnostic tester in "Guided Fault Finding".
