A/C-HEATER CONTROL
STANDARD PROCEDURE - HEATER-A/C
CONTROL CALIBRATION
The heater-A/C control module must be recali-
brated each time an actuator motor or the control
module is replaced. This is necessary so that the con-
trol module can ªlearnº the feedback voltages for
each actuator motor at both stop positions of each
door in the front HVAC unit housing. If the vehicle isso equipped, the calibration procedure also includes
rear HVAC positions for each actuator motor.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(2) Simultaneously depress and hold the Power
and Recirculation buttons on the heater-A/C control
for at least five seconds. The manual heater-A/C con-
trol Delay Light Emitting Diode (LED) and Recircu-
lation LED, or the Automatic Temperature Control
(ATC) heater-A/C control Delay and Recirculation
graphics will begin to flash when the calibration pro-
cedure has begun.

three minutes to complete for the manual heater-A/C
control, and less than twenty seconds for the ATC
heater-A/C control. When the LEDs or graphics stop
flashing, the calibration procedure is complete.
(4) If the LEDs or graphics continue to flash
beyond the normal three minute (manual) or twenty
second (ATC) calibration time, it indicates that the
heater-A/C control has detected a failure and a Diag-
nostic Trouble Code (DTC) has been set. Use a
DRBIIItscan tool to perform further diagnosis. Refer
to the appropriate diagnostic information. The LEDs
or graphics will continue to flash even after the igni-
tion switch is cycled Off and On, until a successful
calibration is completed or until the vehicle has been
driven about 5 kilometers (3 miles).

DODGE TOWN AND COUNTRY 2001 Service Manual A/C PRESSURE TRANSDUCER
DESCRIPTION
The A/C pressure transducer (Fig. 2) is a switch
that is installed on a fitting located on the refriger-
ant liquid line between the filter-drier and the
expansion

A/C PRESSURE TRANSDUCER
DESCRIPTION
The A/C pressure transducer (Fig. 2) is a switch
that is installed on a fitting located on the refriger-
ant liquid line between the filter-drier and the
expansion valve in the right rear corner of the engine
compartment. An internally threaded hex fitting on
the transducer connects it to the externally threaded
Schrader-type fitting on the liquid line. A rubber
O-ring seals the connection between the transducer
and the liquid line fitting. Three terminals within a
molded plastic connector receptacle on the top of the
transducer connect it to the vehicle electrical system
through a take out and connector of the headlamp
and dash wire harness.
The A/C pressure transducer cannot be adjusted or
repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it musty be
replaced.
OPERATION
The A/C pressure transducer monitors the pres-
sures in the high side of the refrigerant system
through its connection to a fitting on the liquid line.
The transducer will change its internal resistance in
response to the pressures it monitors. The Power-
train Control Module (PCM) provides a five volt ref-
erence signal and a sensor ground to the transducer,
then monitors the output voltage of the transducer
on a sensor return circuit to determine refrigerant
pressure. The PCM is programmed to respond to thisand other sensor inputs by controlling the operation
of the air conditioning compressor clutch and the
radiator cooling fan to help optimize air conditioning
system performance and to protect the system com-
ponents from damage. The A/C pressure transducer
input to the PCM will also prevent the air condition-
ing compressor clutch from engaging when ambient
temperatures are below about 10É C (50É F) due to
the pressure/temperature relationship of the refriger-
ant. The Schrader-type valve in the liquid line fitting
permits the A/C pressure transducer to be removed
or installed without disturbing the refrigerant in the
system. The A/C pressure transducer is diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - A/C PRESSURE
TRANSDUCER
The A/C pressure transducer is tested using a
DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnos-
tic information. Before testing the A/C pressure
transducer, be certain that the transducer wire har-
ness connection is clean of corrosion and properly
connected. For the air conditioning system to operate,
an A/C pressure transducer voltage reading between
0.451 and 4.519 volts is required. Voltages outside
this range indicate a low or high refrigerant system
pressure condition to the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM). The PCM is programmed to respond to a low
or high refrigerant system pressure by suppressing
operation of the compressor. Refer to the A/C Pres-
sure Transducer Voltage table for the possible condi-
tion indicated by the transducer voltage readings.

BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The blend door actuators are reversible, 12-volt
Direct Current (DC), servo motors (Fig. 4). Models
with the single zone heater and air conditioner sys-tem have a single blend air door, which is controlled
by a single blend door actuator. Models with the
optional dual zone front heater and air conditioner
system have dual blend air doors, which are con-
trolled by two blend door actuators. The single zone
blend door actuator is located on the driver side end
of the heater-A/C housing unit, close to the dash
panel. In the dual zone system, the same blend door
actuator used for the single zone system becomes the
passenger blend door actuator, and is mechanically
connected to only the passenger side blend air door.
In the dual zone system, a second separate blend
door actuator is also located on the driver side end of
the heater-A/C housing unit close to the instrument
panel, and is mechanically connected to only the
driver side blend air door.
The blend door actuators are interchangeable with
each other, as well as with the actuators for the
mode door and the recirculation air door. Each actua-
tor is contained within an identical black molded
plastic housing with an integral wire connector
receptacle. Two integral mounting tabs allow the
actuator to be secured with two screws to the heater-
A/C unit housing. Each actuator also has an identical
output shaft with splines that connects it to the link-
age that drives the proper blend air door. The blend
door actuators do not require mechanical indexing to
the blend door linkage, as they are electronically cal-
ibrated by the heater-A/C control module. The blend
door actuators cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if
damaged or faulty, they must be replaced.

OPERATION
Each blend door actuator is connected to the heat-
er-A/C control module through the vehicle electrical
system by a dedicated two-wire take out and connec-
tor of the HVAC wire harness. The blend door actua-
tor can move the blend air door in two directions.
When the heater-A/C control module pulls the volt-
age on one side of the motor connection high and the
other connection low, the blend air door will move in
one direction. When the module reverses the polarity
of the voltage to the motor, the blend air door moves
in the opposite direction. When the module makes
the voltage to both connections high or both connec-
tions low, the blend air door stops and will not move.
These same motor connections also provide a feed-
back signal to the heater-A/C control module. This
feedback signal allows the module to monitor the
operation and relative positions of the blend door
actuator and the blend air door. The heater-A/C con-
trol module learns the blend air door stop positions
during the calibration procedure and will store a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any problems it
detects in the blend door actuator circuits. The blend
door actuator can be diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
REMOVAL
The single zone heating and air conditioning sys-
tem is equipped with a single blend door actuator.
The dual zone system has two blend door actuators,
one for the driver side blend air door and one for the
passenger side blend air door. The same service pro-
cedures can be used for each of these actuators.

The blower motor relay (Fig. 7) is a International
Standards Organization (ISO) mini-relay. Relays con-
forming to the ISO specifications have common phys-
ical dimensions, current capacities, terminal
patterns, and terminal functions. The ISO mini-relay
terminal functions are the same as a conventional
ISO relay. However, the ISO mini-relay terminal pat-
tern (or footprint) is different, the current capacity is
lower, and the physical dimensions are smaller than
those of the conventional ISO relay. The blower
motor relay is located in the Intelligent Power Mod-
ule (IPM), which is in the engine compartment near
the battery. See the fuse and relay layout map
molded into the inner surface of the IPM cover for
blower motor relay identification and location.
The black, molded plastic case is the most visible
component of the blower motor relay. Five male
spade-type terminals extend from the bottom of the
base to connect the relay to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem, and the ISO designation for each terminal is
molded into the base adjacent to each terminal. The
ISO terminal designations are shown in (Fig. 8).
