Since there are four switches, there are 16 possible
combinations of open and closed switches (codes).
Seven of these codes are related to gear position and
three are recognized as ªbetween gearº codes. This
results in six codes which should never occur. These
are called ªinvalidº codes. An invalid code will result
in a DTC, and the TCM will then determine the shift
lever position based on pressure switch data. This
allows reasonably normal transmission operation
with a TRS failure.

TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The TRS has an integrated thermistor (Fig. 342)
that the TCM uses to monitor the transmission's
sump temperature. Since fluid temperature can
affect transmission shift quality and convertor lock
up, the TCM requires this information to determine
which shift schedule to operate in. The PCM also
monitors this temperature data so it can energize the
vehicle cooling fan(s) when a transmission ªoverheatº
condition exists. If the thermistor circuit fails, the
TCM will revert to calculated oil temperature usage.
CALCULATED TEMPERATURE
A failure in the temperature sensor or circuit will
result in calculated temperature being substituted for
actual temperature. Calculated temperature is a pre-
dicted fluid temperature which is calculated from a
combination of inputs:
²Battery (ambient) temperature
²Engine coolant temperature
²In-gear run time since start-up
REMOVAL

²Computer logic remembers the settings of the
controls when the ignition is turned off and retains
those settings after a restart. If the system is off
when the ignition is turned of, it will be off when the
engine is restarted, etc.
²Computer logic provides variable air recircula-
tion under high temperature and humidity condi-
tions. Because recirculation is generally accompanied
by increased fan noise, the proportion of recirculated
to outside air gradually approaches full recirculation
over a broad temperature range.

nates when the windshield wiper deicer is active.
REAR CONTROL PANEL
A rear control panel centrally mounted on the
headliner includes a vacuum-flourescent digital dis-
play, a rocker control for temperature and rotary con-
trols for adjustment of mode and fan speed control of
the rear unit by intermediate seat passengers.
OPERATION - DUAL ZONE
²The mode control knob enables continously vari-
able proportioning of air flow between modes but has
detents adjacent to each icon.
²The blower control provides five separate speeds.
²When the fan is off, the HVAC computer closes
the recirculation door to prevent outside air from
entering the passenger compartment.
²Interior air may be recirculated to speed up
heating or cooling in all modes exccept defrost and
mix by pressing the Recirculate button on the control
panel.
²To reduce humidity for rapid defogging the A/C
compressor runs automatically in modes from ªmix'
to full defrost when outside temperautres are above
freezing.
²Air conditioning is available in any mode by
pressing the snowflake, A/C on/off, button.
OPERATION - MANUAL THREE ZONE
FRONT CONTROL PANEL
²Primary control of the rear compartment unit is
on the instrument panel. This control allows the
driver to set the rear compartment fan speed, to turn
the rear unit off, or to give control to the intermedi-
ate seat occupants by switching to the REAR posi-
tion. When the rear unit is controlled from the
instrument panel, rear air temperature is based on
the driver-side temperature control position, and the
mode (floor or overhead air) is based on the front
control's mode position.
²The mode control knob enables continously vari-
able proportioning of air flow between modes but has
detents adjacent to each icon.
²The blower control provides five separate speeds
and Off. When the fan is off, the HVAC computer
closes the recirculation door to prevent outside air
from entering the passenger compartment.
²Interior air may be recirculated to speed up
heating or cooling in all modes exccept defrost and
mix by pressing the Recirculate button on the control
panel.
²To reduce humidity for rapid defogging the A/C
compressor runs automatically in modes from ªmix'
to full defrost when outside temperautres are above
freezing.
²Air conditioning is available in any mode by
pressing the snowflake, A/C on/off, button.
REAR CONTROL PANEL
With the rear control active, temperature selection
dictates indirectly the mode (floor or overhead air) of
the rear unit: a low temperature setting directs flow
to the overhead outlets and a high temperature set-
ting to the floor.
OPERATION - THREE ZONE ATC
Comfort temperature or perceived temperature is
affected by air flow, sun impinging on exposed skin,
etc. The air temperature may be higher or lower than
the comfort temperature. Three infrared sensors, two
in the instrument panel center stack, and one in the
overhead-mounted rear control panel, independently
measure the temperature of the driver, front passen-
ger, and rear compartment occupants to determine
their comfort level relative to the selected comfort
temperature. The HVAC computer in the control
module adjusts the air flow rate and temperature to
maintain the customer-perceived comfort tempera-
ture. The air temperature in the passenger compart-
ment at any time may be slightly higher or lower
than the comfort temperature. For instance, on
sunny summer days the air flow will probably be
cooler than the comfort temperature; on cold or

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - HEATER
PERFORMANCE TEST
PRE-DIAGNOSTIC PREPARATIONS
WARNING: REFER TO THE APPLICABLE WARN-
INGS AND CAUTIONS FOR THIS SYSTEM BEFORE
PERFORMING THE FOLLOWING OPERATION.
(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/
PLUMBING FRONT - WARNING - HEATER PLUMB-
ING).
Check the coolant level, drive belt tension, radiator
air flow, and cooling fan operation. Start the engine
and allow it to warm up to normal temperature.
MAXIMUM HEATER OUTPUT: TEST AND ACTION
Engine coolant is provided to the heater system by
two 16 mm (5/8 inch inside diameter) heater hoses.
With the engine idling at normal running tempera-
ture, set the heater-A/C controls as follows. Temper-
ature control to full Heat, Mode control to Floor,
Blower control to the highest speed setting. Using a
test thermometer, check the air temperature coming
from the center floor outlets and compare this read-
ing to the Temperature Reference table.

HOT to the touch (the coolant return hose should be
slightly cooler than the supply hose). If the coolant
return hose is much cooler than the supply hose,
locate and repair the engine coolant flow obstruction
in heater system.
POSSIBLE LOCATIONS OR CAUSE OF OBSTRUCTED
COOLANT FLOW
²Pinched or kinked heater hoses.
²Improper heater hose routing.
²Plugged heater hoses or supply and return ports
at cooling system connections.
²Plugged heater core.
²Air locked heater core.
²Restrictor in backwards.
If coolant flow is verified and the heater floor out-
let temperature is insufficient, a mechanical problem
may exist.
POSSIBLE LOCATION OR CAUSE OF INSUFFICIENT HEAT
²Obstructed cowl air intake.
²Obstructed heater system outlets.
²Blend-air door not functioning properly.
TEMPERATURE CONTROL
If heater floor outlet temperature cannot be
adjusted with the heater-A/C control temperature
control lever, one of the following could require ser-
vice:
²Blend-air door binding.
²Faulty blend-air door motor.
²Improper engine coolant temperature.
²Faulty heater-A/C control.
