INTAKE DOOR MOTOR

INTAKE DOOR MOTOR

System Description

INFOID:0000000003935894

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

SYMTOM:

• Intake door motor does not operate normally.
• Intake door does not change.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Component Parts

Intake door control system components are:

• A/C auto amp.
• A/C and AV switch assembly
• Intake door motor (PRB built into the intake door motor)
• In-vehicle sensor
• Ambient sensor
• Optical sensor
• Intake sensor

System Operation

The intake door control determines the intake door position based on the position of the recirculation switch.
When the recirculation switch is depressed the intake door motor rotates closing off the fresh air inlet and
recirculating the cabin air. If the recirculation switch is depressed again, the intake door motor rotates in the
opposite direction, again allowing fresh air into the cabin.
In the AUTO mode, the A/C auto amp. determines the intake door position based on the ambient temperature,
the intake air temperature and the in-vehicle temperature. When the DEF, D/F, FLOOR or OFF switches are
pushed, the A/C auto amp. sets the intake door at the fresh position.
