AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, Diagnostic DTC:B1449

DTC Code DTC Name
B1449 Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit (Rear)

DESCRIPTION

The No. 2 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly 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. 2 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly to the appropriate position, which controls the rear air outlet switching.
