RECIRCULATION DOOR
ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The recirculation door actuator is a reversible,
12-volt direct current (DC), servo motor. The single
recirculation door actuator is located on the passen-
ger side end of the HVAC housing, on the air inlet
housing. The recirculation door actuator is mechani-
cally connected to the recirculation-air door. The
recirculation door actuator is interchangeable with
the actuators for the blend-air door(s) and the mode
door. Each actuator 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 air inlet housing. Each actuator also has an iden-
tical output shaft with splines that connects it to the
linkage that drives the recirculation-air door. The
recirculation door actuator does not require mechan-
ical indexing to the recirculation-air door, as it is
electronically calibrated by the A/C-heater control.
OPERATION
The recirculation door actuator is connected to the
heater-A/C control module through the vehicle elec-
trical system by a dedicated two-wire lead and con-
nector of the HVAC wire harness. The recirculation
door actuator can move the recirculation-air door in
two directions. When the A/C-heater control pulls the
voltage on one side of the motor connection high and
the other connection low, the recirculation-air door
will move in one direction.
When the A/C-heater control makes the voltage to
both connections high or both connections low, the
recirculation-air door stops and will not move. The
A/C-heater control uses a feedback signal positioning
system to monitor the operation and relative position
of the recirculation door actuator and the recircula-
tion-air door. The A/C-heater control learns the recir-
culation-air door stop positions during the calibration
procedure and will store a diagnostic trouble code
(DTC) for any problems it detects in the recirculation
door actuator circuits.
The recirculation door actuator is diagnosed using
a scan tool (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDI-
TIONING - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING and to 24 -
HVAC Electrical Diagnostics for more information).
The recirculation door actuator cannot be adjusted
or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it must be
replaced.

BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR
BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
A rear blower motor resistor is used on this model
when it is equipped with the manual heater-A/C sys-
tem. Models equipped with the optional Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC) system use a rear blower
motor power module, instead of the blower motor
resistor block (Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CON-
DITIONING/CONTROLS/POWER MODULE -
DESCRIPTION). The rear blower motor resistor
block is mounted to the rear HVAC housing, directly
above the expansion valve. The resistor block con-
sists of a molded plastic mounting plate with an inte-
gral connector receptacle. Concealed behind the
mounting plate is an electrical circuit board with two
resistors and a thermal fuse. The rear blower motor
resistor block is accessed for service by removing the
right quarter and D-pillar trim panels.
OPERATION
The rear blower motor resistor block is connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated
take out and connector of the rear HVAC wire har-
ness. The blower motor resistor has an electrical cir-
cuit board with two resistors, each of which will
reduce the current flow through the blower motor to
change the blower motor speed. The blower motor
switch in the manual heater-A/C system directs the
ground path for the rear blower motor through the
correct resistor to obtain the selected speed.

MODE DOOR ACTUATOR -
REAR
DESCRIPTION
The rear mode door actuator is a reversible, 12-volt
Direct Current (DC), servo motor. The mode door
actuator is located on the outboard side of the rear
HVAC housing, above the blend door actuator. The
mode door actuator is mechanically connected to the
mode door.
The rear mode door actuator is interchangeable
with the actuator for the blend door. Each actuator 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 rear HVAC housing.
Each actuator also has an identical output shaft with
splines that connects it to the pivot or linkage of the
proper door. The rear mode door actuator does not
require mechanical indexing to the mode door pivot,
as it is electronically calibrated by the front heater-
A/C control module.
OPERATION
The rear mode door actuator is connected to the
front heater-A/C control module through the vehicle
electrical system by a dedicated two-wire take out
and connector of the rear HVAC wire harness. The
rear mode door actuator can move the mode door in
two directions. When the front heater-A/C control
module pulls the voltage on one side of the motor
connection high and the other connection low, the
rear mode door will move in one direction. When themodule reverses the polarity of the voltage to the
motor, the rear mode door moves in the opposite
direction. When the module makes the voltage to
both connections high or both connections low, the
mode door stops and will not move. These same
motor connections also provide a feedback signal to
the front heater-A/C control module. This feedback
signal allows the module to monitor the operation
and relative positions of the rear mode door actuator
and the mode door. The front heater-A/C control mod-
ule learns the rear mode door stop positions during
the calibration procedure and will store a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) for any problems it detects in
the mode door actuator circuits.
The rear mode door actuator can be diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to Body Diagnostic
Procedures for more information. The rear mode door
actuator cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if dam-
aged or faulty, it must be replaced.

POWER MODULE - REAR
BLOWER MOTOR
DESCRIPTION
A rear blower motor power module is used on this
model when it is equipped with the optional Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC) system. Models
equipped with the standard manual heater-A/C sys-
tem use a blower motor resistor block , instead of the
blower motor power module (Refer to 24 - HEATING
& AIR CONDITIONING/CONTROLS/BLOWER
MOTOR RESISTOR BLOCK - DESCRIPTION).
The rear blower motor power module is installed in
the back of the rear HVAC housing, directly above
the expansion valve. The module consists of a molded
plastic mounting plate with two integral connector
receptacles. Concealed behind the mounting plate
within the evaporator housing is the power module
electronic circuitry and a large finned, heat sink. The
power module is accessed for service by removing the
right quarter and D-pillar trim panels.
OPERATION
The rear blower motor power module is connected
to the vehicle electrical system through a dedicated
take out and connector of the rear HVAC wire har-
ness. A second connector receptacle receives the pig-
tail wire connector from the rear blower motor. The
rear blower motor power module allows the micropro-
cessor-based Automatic Temperature Control (ATC)
heater-A/C control module to calculate and provide
infinitely variable blower motor speeds based upon
either manual blower switch input or the ATC pro-
gramming using a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM)
circuit strategy. The PWM voltage is applied to a
comparator circuit which compares the PWM signal
voltage to the blower motor feedback voltage. The
