B103F-Rear Mode Door Travel Range Too Large: Notes
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS information.
Theory of Operation
After the initial installation of the A/C Heater Control, the controller is calibrated to each individual blend/mode door actuator. These calibrations are stored as in the number of pulses it takes to move the door from one stop to another. The A/C Heater Control drives the Door Actuators by the use of Door Driver circuit and a Common Door Driver circuit and monitors all door actuator pulses to detect door movement in both directions. Most of the door actuators share a common door driver circuit but each door actuator has its own unique driver circuit. Due to shared circuitry, similar Diagnostic trouble Codes (DTCs) can set at the same time for multiple actuators depending upon the type of circuit malfunction, its location, and the direction the actuator is moving when the malfunction is present.
- >>When Monitored:<< During normal operation and when ever an HVAC Actuator Calibration Test is performed.
- >>Set Condition:<< The A/C Heater Control uses a pulse feedback to the controller to detect the total door movement range. This DTC will set If the amount of pulses required to move the door completely in both directions is greater than what the controller has stored in its memory. If during normal operation or a HVAC Actuator Calibration Test is performed and the A/C Heater Control detects a valid range of the door movement span in both directions, the DTC will change from Active to Stored and will stay in the controllers memory for 100 ignition cycles.
