GENERAL INFORMATION
INTRODUCTION
For proper operation of the rear heating A/C sys-
tem, refer to Owner's Manual supplied with the vehi-
cle.
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
REAR BLOWER RESISTOR BLOCK
The rear blower motor resistor is not serviceable
separately. The resistor is integral to the blower
motor. If resistor is faulty, it is necessary to replace
the complete blower motor.
REAR HEATER AND A/C LINES
The rear heater and A/C lines are all serviced as
individual pieces. When disconnecting any line orblock ensure that the area around it is clean of any
contaminations that can get in to the system (Fig. 1),
(Fig. 2), (Fig. 4), (Fig. 3) and (Fig. 5).
SYSTEM OPERATION
The auxiliary rear heating-air/conditioning unit is
located in the right rear quarter panel. The rear
heater A/C control operates in conjunction with the
front heater A/C control. A four position two speed
blower (override) switch is located on the front
Heater A/C control panel (Fig. 6). The operator can
use the rear heater A/C blower switch to operate the
blower, regardless of the rear control setting. In the
OFF position, the rear control will not function. In
the ON (RR) position, the rear control will function
normally providing three speeds (Fig. 7). The mode
setting is controlled by the front A/C control panel.
Fig. 1 Rear Heater and A/C Lines
NSHEATING AND AIR CONDITIONING 24 - 41

Air from inside the vehicle is drawn into the air
intake grille in the right rear quarter trim panel. The
air enters the blower and is pushed through the
heater core and A/C evaporator coil. The air direc-
tion, floor or overhead, is determined by the position
of the driver's temperature control lever on the front
HVAC system control. If the temperature control
lever is below 20% heat, the auxiliary HVAC system
airflow will come from the overhead air outlets. In
between 20% and 80%, the airflow will remain in the
last position selected. In other words, if the driver
started out in full heat and then adjusted their tem-
perature lever to 30% heat as they became comfort-
able, the rear air would come out the floor outlets the
whole time.
