Go to Step 2

Go to Symptoms - HVAC Systems - Manual

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Place the blower motor switch in each speed position.

Does the blower motor operate in any of the speed positions?

--

Go to Step 3

Go to Blower Motor Inoperative

Does the blower motor operate at the desired speeds?

--

Go to Step 4

Go to Blower Motor Malfunction

1. Place the blower motor switch in the maximum speed position.
2. Place the mode switch in each position.

Does the air flow from the correct air outlets for each mode position?

--

Go to Step 5

Go to Air Delivery Improper

1. Observe the drive shaft of the air temperature actuator.
2. Place the air temperature switch from the coldest position to the warmest position.

Does the drive shaft on the air temperature actuator ever rotate?

Important: Ensure that the HVAC control assembly connector is connected during this step in order to avoid misdiagnosis.

1. Turn ON the ignition, with the engine OFF.
2. Measure the voltage from the door control circuit of the air temperature actuator to a good ground.
3. Place the air temperature switch from the coldest position to the warmest position.

Is the voltage measurement within the specified values with a smooth transition between cold and hot?

0-12 V

Go to Step 12

Go to Step 11

Inspect for poor connections at the harness connector of the air temperature actuator. Refer to Testing for Intermittent Conditions and Poor Connections and to Connector Repairs in Wiring Systems.

Did you find and correct the condition?
