TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
COMPONENT INSPECTION
Front Blower Motor Relay
Check continuity between terminals by supplying 12 volts and
ground to coil side terminals of relay.
Front Blower Motor
Confirm smooth rotation of the blower motor.

Ensure that there are no foreign particles inside the blower unit.

Apply 12 volts to terminal 2 and ground to terminal 1 and verify
that the motor operates freely and quietly.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Rear blower speed control system components are:

Front air control

Rear blower switch (front)

Rear air control

Rear blower motor resistor

Rear blower motor

Rear blower motor relay
System Operation
Rear Blower Control
When the rear blower control dial (front) is in the OFF position, the rear blower motor cannot operate.
When the rear blower control dial (front) is in the REAR position, it allows the rear blower switch (rear) to con-
trol the rear blower motor speed. In any other position (1-4), the rear blower switch (front) controls the rear
blower motor speed regardless of the rear blower switch (rear) position.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR REAR BLOWER MOTOR
Rear Blower Switch (Rear) Circuit
SYMPTOM:

Rear blower motor does not rotate when rear blower switch (front) is set to REAR position and the rear
blower switch (rear) is set at 1-4 speed.
1. CHECK REAR BLOWER MOTOR OPERATION
Blower motor rotates normally when rear blower control dial (front) is set at 1 - 4 speed.
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 2.
NG >> Refer to ATC-104, "
Trouble Diagnosis Procedure For Rear Blower Motor (1 - 4 Speed)" .
2. CHECK REAR BLOWER SWITCH (FRONT)
Refer to AT C - 11 0 , "
Rear Blower Switch (Front)" .
OK or NG
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Replace rear blower switch (front). Refer to ATC-144, "
FRONT AIR CONTROL" .

NG >> Replace rear blower switch (rear). Refer to ATC-144, "
REAR AIR CONTROL" .
4. CHECK CIRCUIT CONTINUITY
1. Turn ignition switch OFF.
2. Disconnect rear blower switch (front) connector and rear air con- trol connector.
3. Check continuity between rear blower switch (front) harness connector M52 terminal 2 and rear blower switch (rear) harness
connector R208 terminal 10.
