DTC 31, 41 Air Mix Damper Position Sensor Circuit
CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION
This sensor detects the position of the air mix damper and
sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier. The position
sensor is built into the air mix control servomotor.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
1 Check voltage between terminals TP and SGTP of A/C amplifier connector.
PREPARATION:
(a) Remove center cluster module control with connectors
still connected.
(b) Turn ignition switch ON.
CHECK:
Change the set temperature to activate the air mix damper, and
measure the voltage between terminals TP and SGTP of A/C
amplifier connector each time when the set temperature is
changed.
OK:
Set TemperatureVoltage
Max. COOL3.5 ± 4.5 V
Max. WARM0.5 ± 1.8 V
HINT:
As the set temperature increases, the voltage decreases grad-
ually without interruption.
NG Go to step 2.
OK
Proceed to next circuit inspection shown on problem symptoms table (See page DI±874).
However, if DTC 31 or 41 is displayed, check and replace A/C amplifier.

2 Check air mix damper position sensor.
PREPARATION:
Remove air mix control servomotor (See page AC±56).
CHECK:
Measure resistance between terminals 1 and 2 of air mix control
servomotor connector.
OK:
Resistance : 4.2 ± 7.8 kW
CHECK:
While operating air mix control servomotor as shown in the pro-
cedure on page DI±906, measure resistance between termi-
nals 2 and 3 of air mix control servomotor connector.
OK:
PositionResistance
Max. COOL3.6 ± 6.7 kW
Max. WARM0.6 ± 1.1 kW
HINT:
As the air mix control servomotor moves from cool side to hot
side, the resistance decreases gradually without interruption.
NG Replace air mix control servomotor.
OK
3 Check harness and connector between A/C amplifier and air mix control servo-
motor (See page IN±41).
NG Repair or replace harness or connector.
OK
Check and replace A/C amplifier.
