NOTE: Before testing, check for HVAC DTCs (see page
21-9). 1. Disconnect the 7P connector from the recirculation control motor.
Incorrectly applying power and ground to
the recirculation control motor will damage it.
Follow the instructions carefully.
2. Connect battery power to terminal No. 1 of the recirculation control motor, and ground terminal
No. 2; the recirculation control motor should run,
and stop at Recirculate. If it doesn’t, reverse the
connections; the recirculation control motor should
run, and stop at Fresh. When the recirculation
control motor stops running, disconnect battery
power immediately.
3. If the recirculation control motor did not run in step 2, remove it, then check the recirculation control
linkage and door for smooth movement.
 If the linkage and door move smoothly, replace the recirculation control motor (see page 21-74).
 If the linkage or door sticks or binds, repair them as needed.
 If the recirculation control motor runs smoothly, go to step 4.
4. Measure the resistance between terminals No. 5 and No. 7. It should be between 4.2 to 7.8 k .
5. Reconnect the recirculation control motor 7P connector, then turn the ignition switch to ON (II).
6. Using the backprobe set, measure the voltage between terminals No. 3 and No. 7.
7. If either the resistance or voltage readings are not as specified, replace the recirculation control motor
(see page 21-74). 1. Remove the glove box (see page 20-104) and the
kick panel (see page 20-66).
2. Disconnect the 7P connector (A) from the recirculation control motor (B). Remove the self-
tapping screws and the recirculation control motor
from the blower unit.
3. Install the motor in the reverse order of removal. Make sure the pin on the motor is properly
engaged with the linkage. After installation, make
sure the motor runs smoothly.

SRS components are located in this area. Review the
SRS component locations (see page 24-11) and the
precautions and procedures (see page 24-13) before
doing repairs or service.
1. Do the battery terminal disconnection procedure (see page 22-68).
2. Disconnect the A/C line from the evaporator core
(see page 21-78).
3. Remove the air cleaner housing assembly (see page 11-345).
4. When the engine is cool, drain the engine coolant from the radiator (see page 10-8).
5. From under the hood, slide the hose clamps (A) back. Disconnect the inlet heater hose (B) and the
outlet heater hose (C) from the heater unit. Note the
orientation of the hoses.
Engine coolant will run out when the hoses are
disconnected; drain it into a clean drip pan. Be sure
not to let coolant spill on the electrical parts or the
painted surfaces. If any coolant spills, rinse it off
immediately. 6. Remove the mounting nut from the heater unit.
Take care not to damage or bend the fuel lines or
brake lines, etc.
7. Remove the dashboard (see page 20- 108).
8. Disconnect the connector (A) from the blower motor. Remove the wire harness clip (B).

13. Remove the self-tapping screws, the heater core cover (A), the grommet (B). and carefully pull out
the heater core (C).
14. Install the heater core and the evaporator core in the reverse order of removal.
15. Install the heater unit in the reverse order of removal, and note these items:
 Do not interchange the inlet and outlet heater hoses, and install the hose clamps securely.
 Refill the cooling system with engine coolant (see page 10-8).
 Make sure that there is no coolant leakage.
 Make sure that there is no air leakage.
 Refer to evaporator core replacement (see page 21-78).
16. Do the battery terminal reconnection procedure (see page 22-68). NOTE: Do not install an A/C compressor into a system
unless you are completely sure that the system is free
of contamination. Installing the A/C compressor into a
contaminated system can result in premature A/C
compressor failure.
1. If the A/C compressor is marginally operable, run the engine at idle speed, and let the air
conditioning work for a few minutes, then shut the
engine off.
2. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/recycling/ charging station (see page 21-90).
3. Remove the drive belt (see page 4-31).
4. Remove the front bulkhead and the condenser fan shroud (see page 10-19).
5. Remove the splash shield (see page 20-172).
6. Remove the bolt and the nut, then disconnect the suction hose (A) and discharge hose (B) from the
A/C compressor. Plug or cap the lines immediately
after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and
dust contamination.

22-142 Keyless/Power Door Locks/Security System
Transmitter Test/Replacement
A
NOTE:
 If the doors unlock or lock with the transmitter, but the LED on the transmitter does not come on, the LED
is faulty; replace the transmitter.
 If any door is open, you cannot lock the doors with the transmitter.
 If you unlocked the doors with the transmitter, but do not open any of the doors within 30 seconds, the
doors relock automatically.
 The doors do not lock or unlock with the transmitter if the ignition key is inserted in the ignition switch.
1. Press the lock or unlock button five or six times to reset the transmitter.
 If the locks work, the transmitter is OK.
 If any of the transmitter buttons do not work, replace the transmitter, then do the transmitter
programming registration (see page 22-329).
 If the locks don’t work, go to step 2.
2. Connect the HDS to the data link connector.
3. Select the KEYLESS from the BODY ELECTRICAL menu, then enter the KEYLESS CHECK.
4. Press lock, unlock, trunk, or panic button and check the response on the screen of the HDS.
NOTE: The door lock actuators may or may not
cycle when receiving input from the transmitter.
 If KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER CODE IS RECEIVED is indicated, the transmitter is OK. Go
to keyless operation troubleshooting (see page
22-127).
 If DIFFERENT KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER CODE IS RECEIVED is indicated, the transmitter is
not registered to the vehicle, if necessary,
reprogram and register the transmitter (see page
22-329).
 If KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER CODE IS NOT RECEIVED is indicated, go to step 5. 5. Open the transmitter and check for water damage.
 If you find any water damage, replace thetransmitter, then reprogram and register the
transmitter (see page 22-329).
 If there is no water damage, go to step 6.
6. Replace the transmitter battery (A) with a new one, and press lock or unlock button and check the
receive condition on the screen of the HDS.
 If KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER CODE IS RECEIVED is indicated, the transmitter is OK.
 If KEYLESS ENTRY TRANSMITTER CODE IS NOT RECEIVED is indicated, go to step 7.

4. Replace the transmitter battery (A) with a new one,
and try to lock and unlock the doors with the
transmitter by pressing the lock or unlock button
five or six times.
 If the doors lock and unlock, the transmitter is OK.
 If the doors don’t lock and unlock, go to step 5.
5. Reprogram and register the transmitter (see page 22-329), then try to lock and unlock the doors.
 If the doors lock and unlock, the transmitter is OK.
 If the doors don’t lock and unlock, substitute a known-good transmitter and recheck (see page
22-329). If still not operating, replace the
immobilizer-keyless control unit.
