AIR MIX DAMPER MOTOR CHECK <VEHICLES WITH REAR
HEATER OR REAR A/C>

CAUTION

Do not apply battery voltage when the damper is in the
MAX HOT/MAX COOL position.
Check the air mix damper motor by the following procedures.

.

AIR MIX DAMPER POTENTIOMETER CHECK <VEHICLES
WITH REAR HEATER OR REAR A/C>
When checking the air mix damper motor, measure the resis-
tance value between the terminals 3 and 5, between the termi-
nals 3 and 7. At this time, make sure that the measured
resistance value changes slowly within the standard value.

Standard value: 1.2

− 4.8 kΩ

.

AIR THERMO SENSOR CHECK <VEHICLES WITH REAR
COOLER OR REAR A/C>
NOTE: The temperature conditions when checking should not
exceed the range shown in the diagram.
When the resistance between the sensor terminals is mea-
sured under two or more temperature conditions, the resis-
tance should approximately satisfy the illustrated values.

EXPANSION VALVE (MAGNET VALVE) CHECK <VEHICLES
WITH REAR A/C SYSTEM>
When battery voltage is applied to the magnetic valve terminal
No.1 and No.2 terminal is ground, operating sound should be
heard from the magnetic valve.

.

BLOWER MOTOR CHECK
When battery voltage is applied between the terminals, check
that the motor operates. Also, check that there is no abnormal
noise.

.

RESISTOR CHECK
Use an ohmmeter to measure the resistance between the ter-
minals. Check that the measured value is at the standard
value.
