AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Automatic Air Conditioning System), Diagnostic DTC:B1497/97

DTC Code DTC Name
B1497/97 BUS IC Communication Malfunction

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioning harness assembly connects the air conditioning amplifier assembly and each servo motor. The air conditioning amplifier assembly supplies power and sends operation instructions to each servo motor through the air conditioning harness assembly. Each servo motor sends the damper position information to the air conditioning amplifier assembly.
