B105F
B105F-CLIMATE CONTROL MOTOR(S) COMMON 1 CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW (MTC)
For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.
Theory of Operation
The A/C Heater Control drives the Front Blend Door Actuator via the (C61) Front Blend Door Driver circuit and the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit. The A/C Heater Control drives the Mode Door 1 (Floor to Panel) Actuator via the (C29) Mode Door 1 Driver circuit and the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit. The A/C Heater Control drives the Mode Door 2 (Floor to Defrost) Actuator via the (C801) Mode Door 2 Driver circuit and the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit. The A/C Heater Control drives the Recirculation Door Actuator via the (C32) Recirculation Door Driver circuit and the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit. All of the front door actuators share the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit. Inside the A/C Heater Control, each door actuator has its own unique driver, but all share a single common door driver circuit. Due to the shared circuitry similar DTCs can set at the same time for multiple actuators depending upon the type of short, its location, and the direction the actuator is moving when the short is present.
- When Monitored:
When the Actuator DTC Detection Test is executed.
- Set Condition:
If the (C34) Front Common Door Driver circuit is shorted to ground.
