REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the cover from the integrated power
module (IPM) (Fig. 8).
NOTE: Refer to the fuse and relay map on the inner
surface of the cover of the IPM for A/C compressor
clutch relay identification and location.
(3) Remove the A/C compressor clutch relay from
the IPM.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Refer to the fuse and relay map on the inner
surface of the cover of the integrated power module
(IPM) for A/C compressor clutch relay identification
and location.
(1) Position the A/C compressor clutch relay into
the proper receptacle in the IPM.
(2) Align the A/C compressor clutch relay termi-
nals with the terminal cavities in the IPM receptacle.
(3) Push down firmly on the A/C compressor clutch
relay until the terminals are fully seated in the ter-
minal cavities.
(4) Install the cover onto the IPM.
(5) Reconnect the negative battery cable.
A/C HEATER CONTROL
DESCRIPTION
The A/C-heater control is located at the center of
the instrument panel and uses electrical controls.
These controls provide the vehicle operator with a
number of setting options to help control the climate
and comfort within the vehicle. Refer to the owner's
manual in the vehicle glove box for more information
on the suggested operation and use of these controls.
The A/C-heater control cannot be repaired. If faulty
or damaged, the entire unit must be replaced. The
control knobs are available for service replacement.
STANDARD PROCEDURE
A/C-HEATER CONTROL CALIBRATION
The A/C-heater control module must be recali-
brated each time an actuator motor or the control
module is replaced. If the vehicle is so equipped, the
calibration procedure also includes rear HVAC posi-
tions for each actuator motor.
(1) Turn the ignition switch to the On position.
(2) If equipped with the manual temperature con-
trol (MTC) system, press and hold the Rear Wipe/
Wash and Recirculation buttoms for at least five
seconds. If equipped with the automatic temperature
control (ATC) systen, simultaneously press and hold
the Power and Recirculation buttons on the A/C-
heater control for at least five seconds. The MTC
A/C-heater control Rear Wipe/Wash Light Emitting
Diode (LED) and Recirculation LED, or the ATC A/C-
heater control Delay and Recirculation graphics will
begin to flash when the calibration procedure has
begun.
(3) The calibration procedure should take less than
two minutes to complete for the manual A/C-heater
control, and less than twenty seconds for the ATC
A/C-heater control. When the LEDs or graphics stop
flashing, the calibration procedure is complete.
(4) If the LEDs or graphics continue to flash
beyond the two minute (manual) or twenty second
(ATC) calibration time, it indicates that the A/C-
heater control has detected a failure and a Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) has been set. Refer to Body
Diagnostic Procedures to perform further diagnosis.
The LEDs or graphics will continue to flash even
after the ignition switch is cycled Off and On, until a
successful calibration is completed or until the vehi-
cle has been driven about 13 kilometers (8 miles).

The blower motor relay terminals are connected to
the vehicle electrical system through a receptacle in
the Integrated 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 for
diagnosis and testing of the micro-relay and for com-
plete HVAC wiring diagrams.
REMOVAL
(1) Disconnect and isolate the negative battery
cable.
(2) Remove the cover from the integrated power
module (IPM) (Fig. 13).
NOTE: Refer to the fuse and relay map on the inner
surface of the cover of the IPM for front blower
motor relay identification and location.
(3) Remove the front blower motor relay from the
IPM
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Refer to the fuse and relay map on the inner
surface of the cover of the integrated power module
(IPM) for front blower motor relay identification and
location.
(1) Position the front blower motor relay to the
proper receptacle in the IPM.
(2) Align the front blower motor relay terminals
with the terminal cavities in the IPM receptacle.
(3) Push down firmly on the front blower motor
relay until the terminals are fully seated in the ter-
minal cavities.
(4) Install the cover onto the IPM.(5) Reconnect the negative battery cable.
BLOWER MOTOR RESISTOR
BLOCK
DESCRIPTION
A blower motor resistor is used on this model when
it is equipped with the manual heater-A/C system.
Models equipped with the optional Automatic Tem-
perature Control (ATC) system use a blower power
module, instead of the blower motor resistor block
(Refer to 24 - HEATING & AIR CONDITIONING/
CONTROLS/POWER MODULE - DESCRIPTION).
The blower motor resistor block is mounted to the
rear of the HVAC housing, directly behind the glove
box opening in the instrument panel. The resistor
block consists of a molded plastic mounting plate
with two integral connector receptacles. Concealed
behind the mounting plate are four coiled resistor
wires contained within a protective stamped steel
cage. The blower motor resistor block is accessed for
service by removing the glove box from the instru-
ment panel.
OPERATION
The blower motor resistor block is connected to the
vehicle electrical system through a dedicated take
out and connector of the instrument panel wire har-
ness. A second connector receptacle receives the pig-
tail wire connector from the blower motor. The
blower motor resistor has multiple resistor wires,
