Toyota Sienna Service Manual: Air Mix Damper Position Sensor Circuit (Passenger Side)
DESCRIPTION
This sensor detects the position of the air mix control servo motor (air mix 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's 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.

Using the mechanical key (vehicles with a smart key system)
To take out the mechanical key,
push the release button and take
the key out.
The mechanical key can only be
inserted in one direction, as the
key only has grooves on one side.
If the key cannot be inserted in a
lock cylinder, turn it over and reattempt
to insert it.
After using t ...
Zero Point Calibration of Yaw Rate Sensor Undone
DESCRIPTION
The skid control ECU receives signals from the yaw rate sensor via CAN
communication system.
Yaw rate sensor has the built-in deceleration sensor.
If there is trouble in the bus lines between the yaw rate and deceleration
sensor and CAN communication
system, the DTC U0123 ...
