outside/inside air selection damper control motor
works normally.

STEP 9. Check the inside/outside air changeover switch.
There should be continuity between terminals 8 and 13 while
the inside/outside air changeover switch is pushed.
Q: Is the check result normal?

YES : Replace the A/C-ECU. Check that the outside/inside

air selection damper control motor works normally.

NO : Replace the automatic air-conditioning control panel.
