For a complete wiring diagram, refer to appropriate SYSTEM WIRING DIAGRAMS information.

Theory of Operation

The A/C heater control drives the mode door actuator via the mode door driver circuit and the common door driver 2 circuit. The mode door 1 actuator shares the common door driver 2 circuit with the passenger blend door actuator circuit, the driver blend door actuator circuit, and the recirculation door actuator circuit.
