BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEM
BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEM
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547339
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Blower motor speed control system components are: Front air control
In-vehicle sensor
Ambient sensor
Sunload sensor
Intake sensor
System Operation
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the front air control based on input from in-
vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and ambient sensor.
The blower motor is applied voltage ranges from approximately 3.0 volts (lowest speed) to 12 volts (highest
speed).
The control blower speed (in the range of 3.0 to 12V), front air control supplies a gate voltage to the power
transistor. Based on this voltage, front air control controls voltage supplied to the blower motor.
Starting Blower Motor Speed Control
Start up from COLD SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 56°C, the blower will not operate for
a short period of time (up to 150 seconds). The exact start delay time varies depending on the ambient and
engine coolant temperature.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient) the blower starting delay will be 150 seconds as described
above. After this delay, the blower will operate at low speed until the engine coolant temperature rises above
56°C, at which time the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start up from usual or HOT SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the A/C switch is pushed. The blower speed will gradually
rise to the objective speed over a time period of 3 seconds or less (actual time depends on the objective
blower speed).
Blower Speed Compensation
Sunload
When the in-vehicle temperature and the set temperature are very close, the blower will be operating at low
speed. The low speed will vary depending on the sunload. During conditions of low or no sunload, the blower

low speed is usual low speed (approx. 4.0V). During high sunload conditions, the front air control causes the
blower motor speed to increase (approx. 6.5V).

pressor turns ON. The compressor turns OFF when intake air tem-
peratures are lower than 2°C (36°F).

AMBIENT SENSOR
AMBIENT SENSOR
Component DescriptionINFOID:0000000001547357
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Ambient Sensor
The ambient sensor is attached on the radiator core support upper. It
detects ambient temperature and converts it into a resistance value
which is then input into the front air control
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE INPUT PROCESS
The front air control includes a processing circuit for the ambient sensor input. However, when the tempera-
ture detected by the ambient sensor increases quickly, the processing circuit retards the front air control func-
tion. It only allows the front air control to recognize an ambient temperature increase of 0.33°C (0.6°F) per 100
seconds.
As an example, consider stopping for a few minutes after high speed driving. Although the actual ambient tem-
perature has not changed, the temperature detected by the ambient sensor will increase. This is because the
heat from the engine compartment can radiate to the front grille area, location of the ambient sensor.
Ambient Sensor Diagnosis ProcedureINFOID:0000000001547358
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR AMBIENT SENSOR
SYMPTOM: Ambient sensor circuit is open or shorted.
