(3) Check for continuity between each of the
blower motor switch input terminals of the resistor
and the resistor output terminal. In each case there
should be continuity. If OK, repair the wire harness
circuits between the blower motor switch and the
blower motor resistor or blower motor as required. If
not OK, replace the faulty blower motor resistor.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Depress locking tab and unplug the wire har-
ness connector from the blower motor resistor.
(3) Depress locking tab and unplug the resistor
connector from the blower motor.
(4) Remove the 2 screws that secure the blower
motor resistor to the HVAC housing.
(5) Remove the blower motor resistor from the
HVAC housing (Fig. 16).
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the blower motor resistor in the HVAC
housing. The housing is indexed to allow mounting in
only one position. Tighten the mounting screws to 2.2
N´m (20 in. lbs.).
(2) Plug in the wire harness connector to the
blower motor resistor.(3) Plug in the connector from the blower motor
resistor to the blower motor.
(4) Connect the battery negative cable.
BLOWER MOTOR SWITCH
DESCRIPTION
The A/C Heater blower motor is controlled by a
rotary-type blower motor switch, mounted in the A/C
Heater control panel. On vehicles with manual tem-
perature control systems, the switch allows the selec-
tion of four blower motor speeds, but will only
operate with the ignition switch in the On position
and the A/C Heater mode control switch in any posi-
tion, except Off. On vehicles with the Automatic Zone
Control (AZC) systems, the switch allows the selec-
tion of Lo Auto, Hi Auto, and ten speed settings
between Lo and Hi.
OPERATION
On manual temperature control systems, the
blower motor switch is connected in series with the
blower motor ground path through the a/c heater
mode control switch. The blower motor switch directs
this ground path to the blower motor through the
blower motor resistor wires, or directly to the blower
motor, as required to achieve the selected blower
motor speed.
On AZC systems, the blower motor switch is just
one of many inputs to the AZC control module. In the
manual blower modes, the AZC control module
adjusts the blower motor speed through the blower
motor controller as required to achieve the selected
blower switch position. In the auto blower modes, the
AZC control assembly is programmed to select and
adjust the blower motor speed through the blower
motor controller as required to achieve and maintain
the selected comfort level.
The blower motor switch cannot be repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced. The switch is
serviced only as a part of the a/c heater control
assembly.

(1) Check for battery voltage at the fuse in the
Power Distribution Center (PDC). If OK, go to Step
2. If not OK, repair the shorted circuit or component
as required and replace the faulty fuse.
(2) Turn the ignition switch to the Off position.
Disconnect and isolate the battery negative cable.
Remove the a/c heater control from the instrument
panel. (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITION-

REMOVAL) Check for continuity between the ground
circuit cavity of the a/c heater control wire harness
connector and a good ground. There should be conti-
nuity. If OK, go to Step 3. If not OK, repair the open
circuit to ground as required.
(3) With the a/c heater control wire harness con-
nector unplugged, place the a/c heater mode control
switch knob in any position except the Off position.
Check for continuity between the ground circuit ter-
minal and each of the blower motor driver circuit ter-
minals of the a/c heater control as you move the
blower motor switch knob to each of the four speed
positions. There should be continuity at each driver
circuit terminal in only one blower motor switch
speed position. If OK, test and repair the blower
driver circuits between the a/c heater control connec-
tor and the blower motor resistor as required. If not
OK, replace the faulty a/c heater control unit.

IN-CAR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
Models equipped with the optional Automatic Zone
Control (AZC) system use automatic dual zone tem-
perature control with infrared sensing technology.
The temperature sensor is located in the center
instrument panel, between the dual temperature
knobs of the AZC.
OPERATION
The Automatic Zone Control uses infrared sensing
technology to control occupant comfort levels, not the
actual passenger compartment air temperature. Dual
infrared sensors mounted in the face of the control
unit independently measure the surface temperature
to maintain customer-perceived comfort temperature
under changing conditions. Dual Zone temperature
control provides wide side-to-side variation in comfort
temperature to exceed the needs of either front seat
occupant. This sensing system replaces interior air
temperature and solar sensors used to approximate
direct sensing control through complex control pro-
grams.
The infrared temperature sensor cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
AZC head must be replaced.
NOTE: The infrared sensor window may be perma-
nently damaged if any type of cosmetic vinyl dress-
ings are allowed to contact the lens. Avoid spraying
or wiping this area with any cleaner or conditioner.
This may result in impaired temperature sensing
and control.
REMOVAL
The infrared temperature sensor cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, the
AZC head must be replaced. (Refer to 24 - HEATING

VACUUM CHECK VALVE
DESCRIPTION
Two vacuum check valves (non AZC only) are
installed on the vacuum supply system. One is on the
accessory vacuum supply line in the engine compart-
ment, near the vacuum tap on the engine intake
manifold. A second vacuum check valve is located on
the bottom of the HVAC unit behind the passenger
front floor duct on the black vacuum line. The vac-
uum check valves are designed to allow vacuum to
flow in only one direction through the accessory vac-
uum supply circuits.
OPERATION
The use of a vacuum check valve helps to maintain
the system vacuum needed to retain the selected A/C
Heater mode settings. The check valve will prevent
the engine from bleeding down system vacuum
through the intake manifold during extended heavy
engine load (low engine vacuum) operation.
The vacuum check valve cannot be repaired and, if
faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
REMOVAL
(1) Unplug the HVAC vacuum supply line connec-
tor at the vacuum check valve near the engine intake
manifold vacuum adapter fitting.
(2) Note the orientation of the check valve in the
vacuum supply line for correct installation.
(3) Unplug the vacuum check valve from the vac-
uum supply line fittings.
INSTALLATION
(1) Plug in the vacuum check valve at the vacuum
supply line fittings, noting the orientation of the

EVAPORATOR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The evaporator probe is a 2 wire temperature sens-
ing element located at the coldest point on the face of
the evaporator. The switch is attached to the evapo-
rator coil fins. The evaporator temperature probe
prevents condensate water on the evaporator coil
from freezing and obstructing A/C system air flow.
OPERATION
The probe is used to switch the clutch OFF before
evaporator freeze-up occurs. Output from the probe is
sampled by the Body Control Module (BCM). The
clutch is switched OFF when the probe temperature
reaches 1.1É C (34É F). It is allowed to switch ON
when the probe temperature reaches 2.2É C (36É F).
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Remove the HVAC housing from the vehi-
cle(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/
DISTRIBUTION/HVAC HOUSING - REMOVAL).
(3) Disassemble the HVAC housing(Refer to 24 -
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/DISTRIBUTION/
HVAC HOUSING - DISASSEMBLY).
(4) Carefully pull the probe out of the evaporator
core.
INSTALLATION
(1) Install the new probe into the evaporator.
NOTE: The new probe must not go into the same
hole (in the evaporator core) that the old probe was
removed from.
(2) Reassemble the HVAC housing(Refer to 24 -
HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/DISTRIBUTION/
HVAC HOUSING - ASSEMBLY).
(3) Reinstall the HVAC assembly in the vehicle(Re-
fer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/DIS-
TRIBUTION/HVAC HOUSING - INSTALLATION).
