cloudy days and at night it will probably be slightly
warmer. Infrared Three-Zone Temperature Control
provides side-to-side and front-to-rear variation in
comfort temperature settings. The Infrared Three-
Zone Automatic Temperature Control fan provides a
continuously variable air flow rate to meet occupant
comfort requirements.
FRONT CONTROL PANEL
²AUTO HI/LO± This system features two sets of
automatic control logic that allow either a rapid cool-
down rate or a somewhat slower cool-down rate with
less fan noise. HI-AUTO controls the system to reach
its assigned temperature quickly with a higher fan
speed. LO-AUTO controls the system to reach its
assigned temperature somewhat slower with less fan
noise. Both modes will automatically engage auto
recirculation.
²DE-FROST± The front de-frost function is
active when the rear window defogger function is
active or when the defog/defrost mode is selected.
²RECIRC± The RECIRC button will close the
air inlet door. If the system is in auto recirc (indica-
tor being displayed automatically), pressing the man-
ual recirc button will disable the auto recirc function
until one of the auto keys are pressed or the ignition
is cycled. If Auto HI/LO is pressed while manual
recirc is active, manual recirc will be deactivated.
²REAR WINDOW DEFOGGER± Pushing the
button sends a PCI bus message to the Intelligent
Power Module which controls the Rear Window
Defogger and side view mirror (if equipped) circuitry.
The defogger function will be active for 10 minutes
and can be turned off by a switch press. The defogger
will function while the control is in the OFF mode.
²FAN/MODE± The Fan and Mode knobs have
17 manual selectable positions. Manually changing
either of the rotary knobs for mode or fan speed set-
tings makes control of that function alone manual for
as long as the ignition is on. If only one is changed
manually, the other remains under automatic control.
Pressing the HI-AUTO/LO-AUTO rocker switch
restores full automatic control.
²REAR CONTROL± When the Rear System
control knob is moved to the OFF position, there will
be a delay of approximately 1 second before the sys-
tem actually turns off. This delay is to prevent an
undesired blower dropout if the knob is moved
through OFF to the other selections.
²BLOWER DELAY TIMER± The word DELAY
is displayed at start-up to signify that the system is
waiting so that cold air will not be blowing. This tells
the operator that it is unnecessary to turn the sys-
tem off, raise the temperature setting or turn the fan
speed setting down to prevent cold air from blowing.
A countdown in minutes and seconds until the engineis warm enough to begin delivering heat to the pas-
sengers alternates with the DELAY message at 25
second intervals. This countdown is based on actual
measurement of the rate of engine coolant tempera-
ture change. During the delay time, Defrost mode is
selected and the fan operates at a low speed to keep
the windshield fog free.
REAR CONTROL PANEL
Primary control of the rear compartment unit is in
the instrument panel center stack. The rear unit con-
trol knob there allows the driver to turn the rear
unit off, allow control by the intermediate seat occu-
pants by switching to the REAR position, or provide
fully automatic control based on the temperature set-
ting shown on the front control display.
²REAR CONTROL± Selecting automatic control
of the rear unit at the instrument panel, illuminates
a Locked Padlock in the rear control panel display.
Selecting REAR activates the rear control panel and
the Padlock then appears unlocked.
²FAN KNOB± The rear fan control has Off and
AUTO positions and a range of manual speed set-
tings that override the AUTO setting.
²MODE KNOB± The mode control allows inter-
mediate seat occupants to manually override the
automatic mode and select any balance of air flow
between overhead and floor outlets from full over-
head to full floor.
²SET TEMP± The rear set temp control will
operate identical to the front controls. If the front
control rear set temp button is pressed simulta-
neously with the rear control head, then the front
control head press events shall have priority, i.e. if
the front user presses Rear Set Temp down and the
rear user presses Set Temp up, then the rear set
temp will decrease.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - A/C COOL DOWN
TEST
The heater-A/C control module can perform an A/C
cool down test, which is a test performed during the
manufacturing process to confirm that the air condi-
tioning system is performing satisfactorily. This test
can also provide a quick confirmation of air condi-
tioning system performance to the service technician.
If the test is completed satisfactorily, no further ser-
vice is required. If the test is failed, proceed to the
A/C Performance Test to confirm the a/c system is
operating properly, or use a DRBIIItscan tool to
diagnose the A/C system control and distribution sys-
tems. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic informa-
tion.

OPERATION
The blower motor relay is an electromechanical
switch that uses a low current input from the Front
Control Module (FCM) to control the high current
output to the blower motor resistor (manual heater-
A/C control) or blower power module (ATC control).
The movable common feed contact point is held
against the fixed normally closed contact point by
spring pressure. When the relay coil is energized, an
electromagnetic field is produced by the coil wind-
ings. This electromagnetic field draws the movable
relay contact point away from the fixed normally
closed contact point, and holds it against the fixed
normally open contact point. When the relay coil is
de-energized, spring pressure returns the movable
contact point back against the fixed normally closed
contact point. The resistor or diode is connected in
parallel with the relay coil in the relay, and helps to
dissipate voltage spikes and electromagnetic interfer-
ence that can be generated as the electromagnetic
field of the relay coil collapses.
The blower motor relay terminals are connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a receptacle in
the Intelligent Power Module (IPM). The inputs and
outputs of the blower motor relay include:
²The common feed terminal (30) receives a bat-
tery current input from the battery through a B(+)
circuit at all times.
²The coil ground terminal (85) receives a ground
input through the front/rear blower motor relay con-
trol circuit only when the FCM electronically pulls
the control circuit to ground.
²The coil battery terminal (86) receives a battery
current input from the battery through a B(+) circuit
at all times.
²The normally open terminal (87) provides a bat-
tery current output to the blower motor resistor
(manual heater-A/C control) or blower power module
(automatic heater-A/C control) through a fuse in the
IPM on the fused front blower motor relay output cir-
cuit only when the blower motor relay coil is ener-
gized.
²The normally closed terminal (87A) is not con-
nected to any circuit in this application, but provides
a battery current output only when the blower motor
relay coil is de-energized.
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, further details
on wire harness routing and retention, as well as
pin-out and location views for the various wire har-
ness connectors, splices, and grounds.

BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR
DESCRIPTION
A blower motor resistor is used on this model when
it is equipped with the manual heater-A/C control
(Fig. 7). Models equipped with the optional Auto-
matic Temperature Control (ATC) use a blower power
module, instead of the blower motor resistor. The
blower motor resistor is installed in a mounting hole
on the back of the rear heater-A/C unit housing,
directly above the expansion valve. The resistor con-
sists of a molded plastic mounting plate with an inte-
gral connector receptacle. Concealed behind the
mounting plate within the rear heater-A/C unit hous-
ing are two coiled resistor wires contained within a
protective stamped steel cage. The resistor mounting
plate is secured with two screws to the rear heater-
A/C unit housing and is accessed for service by
removing the right quarter and D-pillar trim panels.The blower motor resistor wires will get hot when
in use. Do not touch the resistor wires or the protec-
tive cage if the blower motor has been running. The
blower motor resistor cannot be adjusted or repaired
and, if faulty or damaged, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The blower motor resistor is connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system through a dedicated take out
and connector of the rear HVAC wire harness. The
blower motor resistor has two resistor wires, each of
which will reduce the current flow through the
blower motor to change the blower motor speed. The
blower motor switch in the manual heater-A/C con-
trol directs the ground path for the blower motor
through the correct resistor wire to obtain the
selected speed. With the blower motor switch in the
lowest speed position, the ground path for the motor
is applied through both resistor wires. Each higher
speed selected with the blower motor switch applies
the blower motor ground path through fewer of the
resistor wires, increasing the blower motor speed.
When the blower motor switch is in the highest
speed position, the blower motor resistor wires are
bypassed and the blower motor receives a direct path
to ground through the blower motor switch. The
blower motor resistor may be diagnosed using con-
ventional diagnostic tools and methods.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING - BLOWER MOTOR
RESISTOR
Refer to the appropriate wiring information. The
wiring information includes wiring diagrams, proper
wire and connector repair procedures, details of wire
harness routing and retention, connector pin-out
information and location views for the various wire
harness connectors, splices and grounds.
(1) Disconnect and isolate the battery negative
cable.
(2) Disconnect the rear HVAC wire harness con-
nector for the blower motor resistor from the resistor
connector receptacle.
(3) Check for continuity between each of the
blower motor switch input terminals of the blower
motor resistor and the resistor output terminal. In
each case there should be continuity. If OK, repair
the wire harness circuits between the blower motor
switch and the blower motor resistor or the blower
motor pigtail wires as required. If not OK, replace
the faulty blower motor resistor.Fig. 7 Blower Motor Resistor

4.3 WARNINGS
4.3.1 VEHICLE DAMAGE WARNINGS
Before disconnecting any control module, make
sure the ignition is ªoffº. Failure to do so could
damage the module.
When testing voltage or continuity at any control
module, use the terminal side (not the wire end) of
the connector. Do not probe a wire through the
insulation; this will damage it and eventually cause
it to fail because of corrosion.
Be careful when performing electrical tests so as
to prevent accidental shorting of terminals. Such
mistakes can damage fuses or components. Also, a
second code could be set, making diagnosis of the
original problem more difficult.
4.3.2 ROAD TEST COMPLAINT VEHICLE
Some complaints will require a test drive as part
of the repair verification procedure. The purpose of
the test drive is to try to duplicate the diagnostic
code or symptom condition.
CAUTION: BEFORE ROAD TESTING A
VEHICLE, BE SURE THAT ALL
COMPONENTS ARE REASSEMBLED.

Road testing is an essential step in the diagnostic
process that must not be overlooked. Along with
diagnostic information obtained from the DRBIIIt
Scan Tool and the original customer concern, the
road test helps to verify the problem and observe
operation under actual vehicle driving conditions.
Just as important as the road test is, there are
preliminary inspections that should be carried out
prior to the road test. Always check the fluid level
and condition before going on a road test or per-
forming other tests. Also try to determine the type
of fluid being used. Improper fluid can result in
problems. Additionally, a variety of complaints can
be caused by incorrect fluid level. Some of the
conditions caused by incorrect fluid level are as
follows:
²Delayed engagement
²Poor shifting or erratic shifts
²Excessive noise
²Overheating
The next step is to verify that the shift linkage is
correctly adjusted. If the gearshift linkage is incor-rectly adjusted because of wear or incorrect adjust-
ment, a number of complaints can result.
The TCM monitors the Shift Lever Position (SLP)
Sensor at all times. If the linkage is incorrectly
adjusted, the TCM may sense a shift lever position
that is not correct for the gear range chosen by the
driver. This may cause diagnostic trouble codes to
be set and a possible limp-in situation.
The following complaints may also be the result
of an incorrectly adjusted or worn linkage.
²Delayed clutch engagement or erratic shifts
²Vehicle able to drive in Neutral
²Engine not able to crank in Park or Neutral
²Gearshift linkage able to be shifted without the
key in the ignition
²Not able to remove the ignition key in Reverse
²Parking pawl not engaging
The shift linkage should also be adjusted when
replacing the transaxle, repairing the valve body or
repairing any component between the shift lever
and the transaxle.
Some questions to ask yourself when considering
the road test are listed below:
²Is the complaint or concern what you think it is,
based the driver 's description of the problem?
²Is the transaxle operating normally, or is there a
real problem?
²When does the malfunction occur?
²Is the problem in only one gear range?
²What temperature does the complaint occur?
²Is the transaxle in limp-in mode?
4.3.3 ELECTRONIC PINION FACTOR
WARNINGS
The pinion factor must be set for all new trans-
mission control modules. If the pinion factor is not
set or if it is set incorrectly, any speedometer, speed
control, rolling door locks, and other devices that
are operated by the powertrain and body controllers
will not function properly.
