B105B - Recirculation Door Control Circuit Open

For a complete wiring diagram, refer to.

Theory of Operation

The A/C heater control drives the recirculation door actuator via the recirculation door driver circuit and the common door driver 2 circuit.

When Monitored: With the ignition on.

Set Condition: If the recirculation door actuator electrical circuit is open.






This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC is stored.

Test Step 1 - Check for an Active Control Circuit/Performance DTCs

Turn the ignition ON.

With the scan tool, read active HVAC DTCs.

Does the Scan Tool Display any Active Control Circuit/Performance DTCs?

Yes

Diagnose and repair the DTCs. If present, diagnose and repair all rear blend and rear mode door control circuit/performance DTCs first, then all other control circuit/performance DTCs next. Refer to the table of contents in this section for a complete list of all HVAC related symptoms.

No

Go to Test Step 2 => [ Test Step 2 - Check Recirculation Door Driver Circuit for an Open ]

Test Step 2 - Check Recirculation Door Driver Circuit for an Open

Turn the ignition OFF.

Disconnect the A/C heater control C1 harness connector.

Disconnect the recirculation door actuator harness connector.

Measure the resistance of the recirculation door driver circuit between the A/C heater control C1 harness connector and the recirculation door actuator harness connector.

Is the resistance less than 5.0 ohms?

Yes

Go to Test Step 3 => [ Test Step 3 - Check Common Door Driver 2 Circuit for an Open ]

No

Repair the recirculation door driver circuit for an open.

Perform the HVAC Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. HVAC Verification Test

Test Step 3 - Check Common Door Driver 2 Circuit for an Open

Measure the resistance of the common door driver 2 circuit between the A/C heater control C1 harness connector and the recirculation door actuator harness connector.

Is the resistance less than 5.0 ohms?

Yes

Go to Test Step 4 => [ Test Step 4 - Check Recirculation Door Actuator Circuit Resistance ]

No

Repair the common door driver 2 circuit for an open.

Perform the HVAC Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. HVAC Verification Test

Test Step 4 - Check Recirculation Door Actuator Circuit Resistance

Reconnect the recirculation door actuator harness connector.

Measure the resistance between the recirculation door driver circuit and the common door driver 2 circuit in the A/C heater control C1 harness connector.

Is the resistance between 30 and 40 ohms?

Yes

Replace the recirculation door actuator.

Perform the HVAC Verification Test. Refer to => Non-DTC Based Diagnostics. HVAC Verification Test

No

Replace the A/C heater control.
