Circuit/System Description

The HVAC control module controls the HVAC door actuators to regulate the airflow through the HVAC system. Each actuator consists of an electric motor and a potentiometer. The module supplies a low reference and 5-volt reference source voltage to the potentiometer. The HVAC control module monitors the voltage drop across the potentiometer on the door position signal circuit. When the actuator shaft rotates, the voltage on the door position signal circuit changes. The control circuit uses either a 0, 2.5 or 5-volt signal to command the actuator movement. When the actuator is at rest, the control circuit value is 2.5 volts. A 0 or 5-volt control signal commands the actuator movement in opposite directions.

Conditions for Running the DTC

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The actual door position differs from the commanded door position by more than 4 counts or the HVAC control module detects the door position signal circuit is less than 3 counts or greater than 253 counts.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

The control circuit is deactivated for the appropriate actuator.

Circuit/System Verification

Ignition ON, command the appropriate actuator in both directions with a scan tool. The scan tool door position parameter reading should be between 3 and 253 counts.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the appropriate actuator.
2. Test for less than 1 ohm between the low reference circuit terminal 7 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the low reference circuit for an open/high resistance.

3. Ignition ON, test for 4.8-5.2 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit terminal 10 and ground.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the 5-volt reference circuit for a short to voltage.

4. Verify the appropriate scan tool parameter is less than 4 counts.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the signal circuit terminal 9 for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the HVAC control module.

5. Install a 3-amp fused jumper wire between the signal circuit terminal 9 and the low reference circuit terminal. Verify the appropriate scan tool parameter is greater than 250 counts.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or an open/high resistance.

6. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition circuit terminal 5 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

7. Install a DMM between the actuator control circuit terminal 6 and ground. While monitoring the DMM, use the scan tool to command the appropriate actuator from one direction to the other. The voltage on the control circuit should move from 0 volts in one direction to 5 volts in the other direction and 2.5 volts in the at rest state.

⇒	If the voltage does not change, test the control circuit for an open, short to voltage or short to ground. If circuit tests normal replace the HVAC control module.

8. If all circuits test normal, replace the actuator.
