Toyota Sienna Service Manual: Rear Air Outlet Damper Position Sensor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

This sensor detects the position of the rear air outlet control servo motor and sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier. The position sensor is built in the rear air outlet control servo motor.

The position sensor's resistance changes as the rear air outlet control servo motor arm moves.

It outputs voltage (5 V) that is input to terminal 2 and terminal 3 via the variable resister, and then to the A/ C amplifier.

The A/C amplifier determines the arm position based on the input voltage from the position sensor.

Result

2 INSPECT REAR AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR

(a) Remove the rear air outlet control servo motor.

(b) Disconnect the connector from the rear air outlet 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 rear air outlet control servo motor moves from FACE to FOOT, the resistance decreases gradually without interruption.

3 CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (REAR AIR OUTLET 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.
