CHECK POWER SUPPLY FOR INTAKE
DOOR MOTOR.
Disconnect intake door motor harness con-
nector.
Do approx. 12 volts exist between intake
door motor harness terminal No.j
1and
body ground?

at fuse block.
(Refer to ``POWER SUP-
PLY ROUTING'' in EL sec-
tion and Wiring Diagram.)
CHECK GROUND CIRCUIT FOR INTAKE
DOOR MOTOR.
Check continuity between intake door
motor harness terminal and body ground.
Continuity should exist.

Disconnect recirculation
switch harness connector.
Note
Check continuity between
recirculation switch harness
terminal No.j
1(j2) and
intake door motor harness
terminal No.j
13(j14).
Continuity should exist.
If OK, check harness for
short.

Intake door motor
1. Install intake door motor on intake unit.
Ensure that the intake door motor lever is ®tted into the slit
portion of intake door link.
2. Connect the intake door motor harness connector.
3. Turn ignition switch to ON.

Introduction
AIR CONDITIONER LAN SYSTEM OVERVIEW CONTROL SYSTEM
The LAN system consists of auto amp., air mix door motor and mode door motor.
A con®guration of these components is shown in the diagram below.
Features
SYSTEM CONSTRUCTION (LAN)
A small network is constructed between the auto ampli®er, air mix door motor and mode door motor. The auto
ampli®er and motors are connected by data transmission lines and motor power supply lines. The LAN net-
work is built through the ground circuits of the two motors.
Addresses, motor opening angle signals, motor stop signals and error checking messages are all transmitted
through the data transmission lines connecting the auto ampli®er and two motors.
The following functions are contained in LCUs built into the air mix door motor and the mode door motor.
+Address
+Motor opening angle signals
+Data transmission
+Motor stop and drive decision
+Opening angle sensor (PBR function)

Operational Check
The purpose of the operational check is to con®rm that the system
operates properly.
CONDITIONS
+Engine running and at normal operating temperature.
PROCEDURE
1. Check memory function
a. Set the temperature 25ÉC.
b. Press OFF switch.
c. Turn the ignition off.
d. Turn the ignition on.
e. Press the AUTO switch.
f. Con®rm that the set temperature remains at previous tempera-
ture.
g. Press OFF switch.
2. Check blower
a. Press fan switch one time.
Blower should operate on low speed.
The fan symbol should have one blade lit
.
b. Press fan switch one more time, and continue checking blower
speed and fan symbol until all speeds are checked.
c. Leave blower on MAX speed
.
3. Check discharge air
a. Press mode switch four times and DEF button.
