BLOWER MOTOR CONTROL SYSTEM
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000003775356
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Blower speed control
system components are:• A/C auto amp.
• A/C and AV switch assembly
• Variable blower control
• Front blower motor relay
• Front blower motor
• In-vehicle sensor
• Ambient sensor
• Optical sensor
• Intake sensor
System Operation
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calc ulated by the A/C auto amp. and variable blower control
based on input from the in-vehicle sensor, optical sens or, intake sensor and ambient sensor, and potentio tem-
perature control (PTC).
When the air flow is increased, the blower motor s peed is adjusted gradually to prevent a sudden increase in
air flow.
In addition to manual air flow control and the usual automat ic air flow control, starting air flow control, low
water temperature starting control and high passenger compartment temperature starting control are avail-
able.
Starting Blower Speed Control
Start up from cold soak condition (Automatic mode).
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 50 °C (122° F), the blower will not
operate at blower speed 1 for a short period of time (up to 210 seconds). The exact start delay time varies
depending on the ambient and engine coolant temperatures.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient temper ature) the blower starting delay will be 210 seconds as
described above. After the coolant temperature reaches 50 °C (122° F), or the 210 seconds has elapsed, the
blower speed will increase to the objective blower speed.
Start up from usual operating or hot soak condition (Automatic mode).
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the AUTO 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 speed will vary depending on the sunload. Duri ng conditions of low or no sunload, the blower
operates at low speed. During high sunload conditions , the A/C auto amp. causes the blower speed to
increase.
Blower Speed Control Specification
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Variable Blower Control
The variable blower control is located on the cooling unit. The vari-
able blower control receives a gate voltage from the A/C auto amp.
to steplessly maintain the blower motor voltage in the 0 to 5 volt
range (approx.).
