Model Control Actuator

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
COMPONENT LOCATION

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.

INSPECTION
1.Ignition "OFF"
2. Disconnect the connector of mode control actuator.
3. Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the defrost mode when connecting 12V to the terminal 1 and
grounding terminal 2.
4. Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the vent mode when connecting in the reverse.

5.Check the voltage between terminals 3 and 4.
Door position Voltage (3- 4)Error detecting
Vent 0.4 ± 0.15VLow voltage :0.1V or less
Defrost 4.6 ± 0.15VHigh voltage :4.9V or more
It will feedback current position of actuator to controls.
6. If the measured voltage is not specification, substitute with a known- good mode control actuator and check for
proper operation.
7. If the problem is corrected, replace the mode 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).

5.Installation is the reverse order of removal.

Fuel Fired Heater

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
COMPONENT LOCATION

2007 > 2.7L V6 GASOLINE >
DESCRIPTION
The fuel fired heater has been applied to the diesel engine (CRDi) to increase heating capability by using diesel only in
cold weather
a.Follow the procedures specified in this bulletin during service or it may cause personal injury.
b. Be sure to turn the fuel fired heater off when refueling at station.
c. The fuel fired heater must be mounted at designated position, never in the passenger compartment.
d. The fuel fired heater must be kept below 120°C or a permanent failure on the components may occur.
e. Operational principle : The following 3 conditions should be met at the same time for automatic operation of
the fuel fired heater.
a. Engine runs.
b. Ambient temperature is lower than 2°C (Winter)
c. Coolant temperature is lower than 68°C
f. Cleaning process
a. A cleaning process of the fuel fired heater will be performed automatically when the heater is not operated
due to increase of coolant temperature and ignition off.
b. During cleaning process, supplied fuel in the heater will be burnt completely and any smoke will be expelled.
It is a necessary process for next operation and durability of the heater and takes about 3 minutes.
g. Others
The following symptoms should be explained to customers or technicians as a normal occurrence.
a. A white smoke may come out from the fuel fired heater exhaust pipe installed at the front side of the right
front tire during operation of the heater.
This is not an exhaust fumes.
When moisture in the fuel and air is discharged from the heater and is met cold ambient air, it is condensed
and looks like a white smoke however, when an excessive black smoke is discharged, the fuel fired heater
should be inspected.
b. A "buk- buk" noise from the heater is a noise to form flame for combustion. This is a normal operation.
c. When the heater is operated at full load, a "Wooing" noise is occurred.
d. When shutting off the engine during heater operation, a "Wing" noise is occurred to perform the cleaning
process.
OVERVIEW
1.This fuel fired heater supplies additional heat to the interior compartment with a low fuel consumption to
compensate the heat provided by engine alone.
2. The fuel fired heater has been adopted to warm up the interior compartment in a short time.
