AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM(for Automatic Air Conditioning System) Recirculated/Fresh Air Modes do not Switch

DESCRIPTION

If the air inlet mode cannot be changed between recirculation/fresh or exhaust gas odors can be smelled even though recirculation mode is selected, the following factors may be the cause.

Symptom Factor

  • Air inlet mode cannot be changed between recirculation/fresh

  • Exhaust gas odors can be smelled when air inlet mode set to recirculation mode


  • No. 1 blower damper servo sub-assembly malfunction

  • Damper link disconnection

  • Air inlet damper mechanically locked

  • Engine coolant temperature (high)

  • Air conditioner unit assembly malfunction

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK NO. 1 BLOWER DAMPER SERVO SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. Check that the No. 1 blower damper servo sub-assembly is installed correctly.

      OK
      The No. 1 blower damper servo sub-assembly is installed correctly.

  2. CHECK FOR DTC


    1. Check for DTCs.

  3. READ VALUE USING GTS


    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.

    3. Turn the GTS on.

    4. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Data List.

    5. Read the Data List according to the display on the GTS.


      Powertrain > Engine > Data List
      Tester Display Measurement Item Range Normal Condition Diagnostic Note
      Coolant Temperature Engine coolant temperature Min.: -40°C (-40°F), Max.: 140°C (284°F) 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F): After warming up

      This is the engine coolant temperature.

      Tech Tips


      • After warming up the engine, the engine coolant temperature will be 75 to 100°C (167 to 212°F).

      • After a long soak, the engine coolant temperature, intake air temperature and ambient air temperature will be approximately equal.

      • If the value is -40°C (-40°F), or higher than 135°C (275°F), the sensor circuit is open or shorted.

      • Check if the engine overheats if the value indicated is higher than 135°C (275°F).
