AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1449/49

DTC Code DTC Name
B1449/49 Rear Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The rear No. 2 cooling unit damper servo sub-assembly (rear mode damper servo) sends pulse signals to indicate the damper position to the air conditioning amplifier assembly. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the rear air outlet damper to any position, which controls the air outlet modes.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through the No. 2 air conditioning harness.

Tip:

Confirm that there are no mechanical problems because this DTC may be stored when either a damper link or damper is mechanically locked.

DTC No.
