Air Conditioning System (For Automatic Air Conditioning System)

HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Automatic Air Conditioning System): B1443/43: Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit
B1443/43 - Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The air outlet control servo motor sends pulse signals to indicate the damper position to the air conditioning amplifier. The air conditioning amplifier activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the mode damper to any position, which controls the air outlet switching.

The air conditioning amplifier communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness.

HINT
Confirm that no mechanical problem is present because this DTC can be output when either a damper link or the damper is mechanically locked.

NG -- INSPECT AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR

OK -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER Removal

3. INSPECT AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR

(a) Replace the No. 1 air mix control servo motor (air outlet control servo motor) Disassembly.

HINT
Since the servo motor cannot be inspected while it is removed from the vehicle, replace the servo motor with a new or a known good one and check that the condition returns to normal.

(b) Check for the DTC.

Result





B -- REPLACE AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR Disassembly
A -- Continue to next step.

4. INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING HARNESS

(a) Replace the air conditioning harness Disassembly.

HINT
Since the air conditioning harness cannot be inspected while it is removed from the vehicle, replace the air conditioning harness with a new or a known good one and check that the condition returns to normal.

(b) Check for the DTC.

Result





B -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING HARNESS Disassembly

A -- REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER Removal
