COOL (blue) to WARM (red) causes a corresponding movement on the air temperature control
door and determines the temperature that the system will maintain.
z The A/C heater function selector switch combines a vacuum selector valve for direct control of
the vacuum control motors and electrical input to the instrument control module.
Control System Outputs
Blower Motor Switch Resistor
The heater blower motor switch resistor has the following features:
zThe assembly is located on the passenger side of the plenum assembly behind the glove
compartment (06010).
z Three resistance elements are mounted on the resistor board to provide four A/C blower motor
speeds.
z Depending on the heater blower motor switch position, series resistance is added or bypassed
in the A/C blower motor circuit to decrease or increase A/C blower motor speed.
z An overheating protective device (thermal limiter) will open the resistor coil circuit when the
temperature reaches 105°- 110°C (221°-230°F), interrupting the blower motor operation in all
speeds except HI.
z The thermal limiter cannot be reset and is not serviceable.
Control Actuators
Temperature Control Cable
The temperature control cable (19988) has the following features:
zThe cable assembly has a constant tension (pull- pull) dual cable design.
z The pull- pull design allows for constant smooth communication between the temperature control
knob and the air temperature blend door.
z The control cable can only be installed as an assembly.
Vacuum Control Motors
The vacuum control motors (18A318) control the position of the doors directing the air flow to the
different outlets. There are two types of vacuum control motors used in this system:
zSingle- diaphragm for air inlet and windshield defroster door operations.
z Double- diaphragm for air damper door operations.
Single- diaphragm motors have two positions:
z Shaft extended with no vacuum applied.
z Shaft retracted with vacuum applied.
Double- diaphragm motors have three positions:
z Shaft extended with no vacuum applied to either port.
z Shaft halfway retracted with vacuum applied to only one port. Klj . 3 ba

3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible)
before proceeding to the next step.
4. If the concern remains after the inspection, connect the diagnostic tool to the data link connector (DLC) located beneath the instrument panel and select the vehicle to be tested from the
diagnostic tool menu. If the diagnostic tool does not communicate with the vehicle:
zcheck that the program card is correctly installed.
z check the connections to the vehicle.
z check the ignition switch position.
5. If the diagnostic tool still does not power up, refer to the diagnostic tool operating manual.
6. Carry out the DATA LINK DIAGNOSTICS test. If the diagnostic tool responds with: zCKT914, CKT915 OR CKT70 = ALL ECUS NO RESP/NOT EQUIP, refer to Section 418 -
00 .
z NO RESP/NOT EQUIP for the instrument cluster, Go To Pinpoint Test A or for the
generic electronic module (GEM), Go To Pinpoint Test W .
z SYSTEM PASSED, retrieve and record the continuous diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs),
erase the continuous DTCs and carry out the self- test diagnostics for the instrument
cluster or the GEM.
7. If the DTCs retrieved are related to the concern, go to the Instrument Cluster Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Index or the GEM Diagnostic Trouble Code Index to continue diagnostics.
8. If no DTCs related to the concern are retrieved, proceed to the Symptom Chart to continue diagnostics.
Instrument Cluster Self- Diagnostic Mode
To enter the instrument cluster self- diagnostic mode, press and hold the instrument cluster
SELECT/RESET button, turn the ignition switch to the RUN position, and then continue pressing the
SELECT/RESET button (five seconds) until tESt is displayed in the odometer. The SELECT/RESET
button must be released within three seconds of the odometer tESt display to begin the self- diagnostic
mode. Press the SELECT/RESET button to advance through the following steps until dtc is displayed.
Depressing the SELECT/RESET button will display any stored continuous DTCs before proceeding to
the next step. z

Display Description
GAGE Activates gauge sweep of all gauges, then displays present gauge values. Also
carries out the checksum tests on ROM and EE. All segments
illuminated Illuminates all odometer segments.
bulb Illuminates all micro-controlled indicators and LEDs. Install a new indicator or LED as
necessary. r Returns to normal operation of all micro-
controlled indicators and LEDs and displays

hotline). dt Displays hexadecimal coding of final manufacturing test date (used when requesting
assistance from the hotline). dtc Displays continuous DTCs in hexadecimal format. Pressing the SELECT/RESET
button will display any DTCs stored before proceeding to the next step. enG Displays the English speed in mph. Speedometer will indicate present speed within
tolerances. Display will show 0 if input is not received, if input received is invalid for one second or more, or if speed is 0. m Displays the metric speed data (km/h). Speedometer will indicate present speed
within tolerances. Display will show 0 if input is not received, if input received is invalid for one second or more, or if speed is 0. tAc Displays the tachometer data received from the PCM via the SCP network within
tolerances. Tachometer will indicate present rpm. Display will show 0 if input is not received, if input received is invalid for one second or more, or if engine rpm is 0. FUEL Displays the code (0-255) for the fuel sender input to the instrument cluster. The fuel
gauge will display a filtered fuel level value. This filter will keep the pointer from moving suddenly or erratically.

z 54=LOW FUEL (0- 59)
z 0-18=short (0- 20 max) OIL Displays the code (0-
250) for the oil pressure switch input to the instrument cluster.
Oil pressure gauge will indicate present oil pressure. Normal oil pressure (greater
than 6 psi) will display a value between 000 and 176. A low oil pressure or an
inoperative engine oil pressure switch (less than 6 psi) will display a value greater
than 176. dEGC Display of engine temperature in degrees C input from cylinder head temperature
sensor.
z 49 C = "C" mark
z 60 C = normal band start
z 120 C = normal band end
z -40 C = no SCP message for 5 seconds bAtt Displays the code (0-255) for the battery voltage input to the instrument cluster.
