< COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS >[AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONER]
BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEM
Check circuit continuity between terminals by supplying 12 volts and
ground to coil side terminals of relays.
Rear Blower Motor
Check that there are no foreign particles inside the intake unit.
Apply 12 volts to terminal 2 and ground to terminal 1 and ensure that
the blower motor rotates freely and quietly.

REAR AIR CONTROL SYSTEM
Rear Air Control System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001679804
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Rear air control system components are:
• A/C auto amp.
• Rear air control (front)
• Rear air control (rear)
• Air mix door motor (rear)
• Mode door motor (rear)
System Operation
Rear Air Control
When the REAR CTRL indicator is off the rear air cont rol (front) will control all rear blower motor speeds and
the rear temperature and mode operations. When the REAR CTRL switch is pressed (indicator on), the rear
air control (rear) will control all the rear blower motor speeds and the rear temperature and mode operations.
Rear Air Control Component Function CheckINFOID:0000000001679805
SYMPTOM:
• Temperature cannot be adjusted from the rear air controls.
• Mode cannot be adjusted from the rear air controls.
