AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (for Manual Air Conditioning System), Diagnostic DTC:B1497

DTC Code DTC Name
B1497 Communication Malfunction (Bus Ic)

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.

DTC Code DTC Detection Condition Trouble Area
B1497 An open circuit or malfunction in the communication line.
  • Recirculation damper servo sub-assembly

  • Damper servo sub-assembly RH

  • Damper servo sub-assembly LH

  • Air conditioning harness assembly

  • Air conditioning amplifier assembly

  • Harness or connector
