SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component parts
Air mix door control system components are:
1) Auto amp.
2) Air mix door motor (LCU)
3) In-vehicle sensor
4) Ambient sensor
5) Sunload sensor
6) Intake sensor
System operation
The auto ampli®er receives data from each of the sensors. The ampli®er sends air mix door and mode door
opening angle data to the air mix door motor LCU and mode door motor LCU.
The air mix door motor and mode door motor read their respective signals according to the address signal.
Opening angle indication signals received from the auto ampli®er and each of the motor position sensors are
compared by the LCUs in each motor with the existing decision and opening angles. Subsequently, HOT/
COLD or DEFROST/VENT operation is selected. The new selection data is returned to the auto ampli®er.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
The air mix door motor is attached to the heater unit. It rotates so
that the air mix door is opened or closed to a position set by the
auto ampli®er. Motor rotation is then conveyed through a shaft and
the air mix door position is then fed back to the auto ampli®er by
PBR built-in air mix door motor.

System operation
The intake door control determines intake door position based on the ambient temperature, the intake air
temperature and the in-vehicle temperature. When the A/C, DEFROSTER, or OFF switches are pushed, the
auto ampli®er sets the intake door at the ``Fresh'' position.

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component parts
Fan speed control system components are:
1) Auto amp.
2) Fan control amp.
3) A/C LAN system (PBR built in mode door motor and air mix door motor)
4) In-vehicle sensor
5) Ambient sensor
6) Sunload sensor
7) Intake sensor
System operation
Automatic mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the automatic ampli®er based on inputs from
the PBR, in-vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and ambient sensor. The blower motor applied
voltage ranges from approximately 5 volts (lowest speed) to 12 volts (highest speed).
The control blower speed (in the range of 5 to 12V), the automatic ampli®er supplies a gate voltage to the fan
control ampli®er. Based on this voltage, the fan control ampli®er controls the voltage supplied to the blower
motor.
Starting fan speed control
Start up from ``COLD SOAK'' condition (Automatic mode)
In a cold start up condition where the engine coolant temperature is below 50ÉC, the blower will not operate
for a short period of time (up to 150 seconds). The exact start delay time varies depending on the ambient
and engine coolant temperature.
In the most extreme case (very low ambient) the blower starting delay will be 150 seconds as described above.
After this delay, the blower will operate at low speed until the engine coolant temperature rises above 55ÉC,
at which time the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start up from normal or ``HOT SOAK'' condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the AUTO button is pushed. The blower speed will gradu-
ally rise to the objective speed over a time period of 3 seconds or less (actual time depends on the objective
blower speed).

Blower speed compensation
Sunload
When the in-vehicle temperature and the set temperature are very close, the blower will be operating at low
speed. The low speed will vary depending on the sunload. During conditions of high sunload, the blower low
speed is ``normal'' low speed (approx. 6V). During low or no sunload conditions, the low speed will drop to
``low'' low speed (approx. 5V).
Ambient
When the ambient temperature is in the ``moderate'' range [10 þ 15ÉC], the computed blower voltage will be
compensated (reduced) by up to 3.5V (depending on the blower speed). In the ``extreme'' ambient ranges
[below 0ÉC and above 20ÉC] the computed objective blower voltage is not compensated at all. In the ambi-
ent temperature ranges between ``moderate'' and ``extreme'' [0 - 10ÉC and 15 - 20ÉC], the amount of compen-
sation (for a given blower speed) varies depending on the ambient temperature.
Fan speed control speci®cation
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Fan control ampli®er
The fan control ampli®er is located on the cooling unit. The fan
control amp. receives a gate voltage from the auto amp. to step-
lessly maintain the blower fan motor voltage in the 5 to 12 volt
range (approx.).
