A/C-HEATER CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The rear heating-A/C system is controlled by rota-
ry-type blower motor and temperature controls, cen-
trally mounted directly into the headliner, or if
equipped with the available DVD player, located in
the player housing. The rear A/C-heater control
allows selection of three blower motor speeds and an
Off position when the center knob on the front A/C-
heater control is set to the Rear position, otherwise
the front unit controls both front and rear heater-A/C
operation.
OPERATION
With the rear A/C-heater control active, tempera-
ture selection dictates the air distribution mode (floor
or overhead air) of the rear unit. A cool temperature
setting directs flow to the overhead outlets and a
warm temperature setting to the floor. Refer to Body
Diagnostic Procedures for further diagnostic informa-
tion.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) If the rear A/C-heater control is mounted in the
headliner, use a trim stick or another suitable wide
flat bladed tool and gently pry the top edge of the
control bezel away from the headliner far enough to
release the two snap clip retainers (Fig. 1).
(3) Pull the rear A/C-heater control and bezel
assembly rearward far enough to access the wire har-
ness connector on the back of the control.
(4) Disconnect the wire harness connector from the
rear A/C-heater control.
(5) Remove the rear A/C-heater control and bezel
assembly from the headliner.
(6) If the rear A/C-heater control is mounted in the
video screen housing, remove the housing from the
headliner (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/AUDIO/VIDEO
SCREEN - REMOVAL).
(7) Remove the three screws that secure the rear
A/C-heater control to the bezel or video screen hous-
ing, depending on application and remove the control
(Fig. 2).

BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The rear blend door actuator is a reversible,
12-volt Direct Current (DC), servo motor. The single
blend door actuator is located on the outboard side of
the rear HVAC housing, below the mode door actua-
tor. The blend door actuator is mechanically con-
nected to the blend air door.
The rear blend door actuator is interchangeable
with the actuator for 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 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 blend door actuator does not
require mechanical indexing to the blend air door
pivot, as it is electronically calibrated by the front
heater-A/C control module.

A/C-HEATER CONTROL (Continued)

OPERATION
The rear blend 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
blend door actuator can move the blend air 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
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 direc-
tion. When the module makes the voltage to both
connections high or both connections low, the blend
air 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 rela-
tive positions of the blend door actuator and the
blend air door. The front heater-A/C control 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 rear blend door actuator can be diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to Body Diagnostic
Procedures for more information. The rear blend door
actuator cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if dam-
aged or faulty, it must be replaced.

BLOWER MOTOR RELAY
DESCRIPTION
The rear blower motor relay is a International
Standards Organization (ISO)-type relay (Fig. 4).
Relays conforming to the ISO specifications have
common physical dimensions, current capacities, ter-
minal patterns, and terminal functions. The rear
blower motor relay is located in the integrated power
module (IPM) in the engine compartment. See the
fuse and relay map on the inner surface of the cover
of the IPM for rear blower motor relay identification
and location.
The black, molded plastic case is the most visible
component of the rear 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 as follows:
²30 (Common Feed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the movable contact point of the relay.
²85 (Coil Ground)- This terminal is connected
to the ground feed side of the relay control coil.
²86 (Coil Battery)- This terminal is connected
to the battery feed side of the relay control coil.
²87 (Normally Open)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally open fixed contact point of the
relay.
²87A (Normally Closed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally closed fixed contact point of
the relay.
The rear blower motor relay cannot be adjusted or
repaired. If the relay is damaged or faulty, it must be
replaced.
OPERATION
The rear blower motor relay is an electromechani-
cal switch that uses a low current input from the
Front Control Module (FCM) to control the high cur-
rent output to the rear blower motor resistor (man-
ual heater-A/C control) or rear blower motor power
module (ATC heater-A/C control). The movable com-
mon feed contact point is held against the fixed nor-
mally closed contact point by spring pressure. When
the relay coil is energized, an electromagnetic field is
produced by the coil windings. This electromagnetic
field draws the movable relay contact point away
from the fixed normally closed contact point, and
holds it against the fixed normally open contact
point. When the relay coil is de-energized, spring
pressure returns the movable contact point back
against the fixed normally closed contact point. The
resistor or diode is connected in parallel with the
relay coil in the relay, and helps to dissipate voltage
spikes and electromagnetic interference that can be
generated as the electromagnetic field of the relay
coil collapses.
The rear blower motor relay terminals are con-
nected to the vehicle electrical system through a
receptacle in the Integrated Power Module (IPM).
The inputs and outputs of the rear blower motor
relay include:
²The common feed terminal (30) receives a bat-
tery current input from the battery through a B(+)
circuit at all times.
²The coil ground terminal (85) receives a ground
input through the front/rear blower motor relay con-
trol circuit only when the FCM electronically pulls
the control circuit to ground.
²The coil battery terminal (86) receives a battery
current input from the battery through a B(+) circuit
at all times.

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
