The auto amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The amp. sends mode door, air mix door and intake door opening angle data to the mode door motor LCU, air mix door motor LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the auto amp. and each of the motor position sensors is compared by the LCUs in each motor with the existing decision and opening angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEFROST/VENT or FRESH/RECIRCULATION operation is selected. The new selection data is returned to the auto amp.
