AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1441/41

DESCRIPTION

• for LHD

  The No. 4 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) sends pulse signals to inform the air conditioning amplifier assembly of the damper position. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the No. 4 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) to the appropriate position. As a result, the amount of air passing through the heater core after passing the evaporator is adjusted, and the temperature of the air blowing toward the passenger seat side is controlled. The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness assembly.

• for RHD

  The No. 5 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) sends pulse signals to inform the air conditioning amplifier assembly of the damper position. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the No. 5 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) to the appropriate position. As a result, the amount of air passing through the heater core after passing the evaporator is adjusted, and the temperature of the air blowing toward the passenger seat side is controlled. The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness assembly.

• *1: The air conditioning amplifier assembly stores this DTC if the malfunction has occurred for the period of time indicated in the brackets.

• *2: for LHD

• *3: for RHD

2. READ VALUE USING GTS

   
   

   1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

   2. Turn the power switch on (IG).

   3. Turn the GTS on.

   4. Operate the front passenger side temperature adjustment switch.

   5. Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Air Conditioner / Data List.

   6. Check the value(s) by referring to the table below.

      
      Body Electrical > Air Conditioner > Data List

      Tester Display	Measurement Item	Range	Normal Condition	Diagnostic Note
      Air Mix Servo Targ Pulse(P)	No. 4 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) target pulse	Min.: 128 Max.: 383	MAX. COLD: 254 (pulse) MAX. HOT: 360 (pulse)	-
      Air Mix Servo Actual Pulse(P)	No. 4 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (front passenger side lower air mix) actual pulse	Min.: 128 Max.: 383	MAX. COLD: 254 (pulse) MAX. HOT: 360 (pulse)	-

      
      Body Electrical > Air Conditioner > Data List

      Tester Display
      Air Mix Servo Targ Pulse(P)
      Air Mix Servo Actual Pulse(P)

      OK
      When the front passenger side temperature adjustment switch is turned from MAX COLD to MAX HOT, the actual pulse changes following the target pulse.

      Result
      Result Proceed to Target pulse changes but actual pulse does not change A Target pulse and actual pulse do not change B Actual pulse changes following the target pulse (When troubleshooting according to the DTC) C Actual pulse changes following the target pulse (When troubleshooting according to Problem Symptoms Table) D
