DESCRIPTION

This sensor detects the position of the air mix control servo motor (air outlet damper) and sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier. The position sensor is built in the air mix control servo motor. The position sensor resistance changes as the air mix control servo motor arm moves.
It outputs voltage (5 V) that is input to terminal 1 and terminal 3 via the
variable resistor, and then to the A/
C amplifier. The A/C amplifier determines the arm position based on the input
voltage from the position
sensor.

2 INSPECT AIR MIX CONTROL SERVO MOTOR

(a) Remove the air mix control servo motor.
(b) Disconnect the connector from the air mix control servo motor.
(c) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 
(d) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
Standard resistance 

(e) As the air mix control servo motor moves from the COOL side to the HOT side, the resistance decreases gradually without interruption.


3 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR MIX CONTROL SERVO MOTOR - A/C AMPLIFIER)

(a) Disconnect the connector from the A/C amplifier.

(b) Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.

Freeze frame data
1. FREEZE FRAME DATA
(a) Whenever a DTC is detected or the ABS operates,
the skid control ECU stores the current vehicle
(sensor) state as freeze frame data.
The skid control ECU stores the number of times
(maximum: 31) the ignition switch has been turned
from OFF to the ON position since th ...
