REPLACEMENT
1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Recover the refrigerant with a recovery/ recycling/ charging station. (Refer to HA - 8)
3. When the engine is cool, drain the engine coolant from the radiator.
4. Remove the bolts (A) and the expansion valve (B) from the evaporator core.
Plug or cap the lines immediately after disconnecting them to avoid moisture and dust contamination.
5.Disconnect the inlet (A) and outlet (B) heater hoses from the heater unit.
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 electrical parts or painted surfaces. If any coolant spills, rinse it off immediately.
6. Remove the crash pad (Refer to BD group).
7. Remove the cowl cross bar assembly. (Refer to BD group)
8. Disconnect the connectors from the temperature control actuator, the mode control actuator and the evaporator
temperature sensor.
9. Remove the heater & blower unit after loosening 3 mounting bolts.

Temperature Control Actuator

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
1.Heater unit includes mode control actuator and temperature control actuator.
2. Temperature control actuator is located at the heater unit. It regulates the temperature by the procedure as follows.
Signal from control unit adjusts position of temperature door by operating temperature switch and then temperature
will be regulated by the hot/cold air ratio decided by position of temperature door

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
INSPECTION
1.Ignition "OFF"
2. Disconnect the connector of temperature control actuator.
3. Verify that the temperature control actuator operates to the hot position when connecting 12V to the terminal 1 and
grounding terminal 2.
Verify that the temperature control actuator operates to the cool position when connecting in the reverse.

Door position Voltage (4- 5)Error detecting
Max. cooling 0.4 ± 0.15VLow voltage : 0.1V or less
Max. heating 4.6 ± 0.15VHigh voltage :4.9V or more
It will feedback current position of actuator to controls.
4. If the measured voltage is not specification, substitute with a known- good temperature control actuator and check
for proper operation.
5. If the problem is corrected, replace the temperature control actuator.
REPLACEMENT

1.Disconnect the negative ( - ) battery terminal.
2. Remove the driver’s crush pad lower panel (Refer to BD group).
3. Disconnect the temperature control actuator connector (A) after removing the air duct.
4. Loosen the mounting screw and then remove the temperature control actuator (B).

Model Control Actuator

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
The mode control actuator is located at the heater unit.
It adjusts position of mode door by operating mode control actuator based on signal of A/C control unit. Pressing mode
select switch makes the mode control actuator shift in order of vent→ B/L → floor → mix.
