RECIRCULATION DOOR
ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The recirculation door actuator is a reversible,
12-volt Direct Current (DC), servo motor (Fig. 24).
The single recirculation door actuator is located onthe passenger side end of the heater-A/C housing
unit, on the bottom of the lower intake air housing.
The recirculation door actuator is mechanically con-
nected to the recirculation air door. The recirculation
door actuator is interchangeable with the actuators
for the blend air door(s) and the mode door. Each
actuator is contained within an identical black
molded plastic housing with an integral wire connec-
tor receptacle. Two integral mounting tabs allow the
actuator to be secured with two screws to the lower
intake air housing. Each actuator also has an identi-
cal output shaft with splines that connects it to the
linkage that drives the recirculation air door. The
recirculation door actuator does not require mechan-
ical indexing to the recirculation air door, as it is
electronically calibrated by the heater-A/C control
module. The recirculation door actuator cannot be
adjusted or repaired and, if damaged or faulty, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The recirculation door actuator is connected to the
heater-A/C control module through the vehicle elec-
trical system by a dedicated two-wire take out and
connector of the HVAC wire harness. The recircula-
tion door actuator can move the recirculation door in
two directions. When the heater-A/C control module
pulls the voltage on one side of the motor connection
high and the other connection low, the recirculation
air door will move in one direction. When the module
reverses the polarity of the voltage to the motor, the
recirculation air door moves in the opposite direction.
When the module makes the voltage to both connec-
tions high or both connections low, the recirculation
air door stops and will not move. These same motor
connections also provide a feedback signal to the
heater-A/C control module. This feedback signal
allows the module to monitor the operation and rela-
tive position of the recirculation door actuator and
the recirculation air door. The heater-A/C control
module learns the recirculation air door stop posi-
tions during the calibration procedure and will store
a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any problems it
detects in the recirculation door actuator circuits.
The recirculation door actuator can be diagnosed
using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the appropriate
diagnostic information.

BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR
DESCRIPTION
The blend door actuator is a reversible, 12-volt
Direct Current (DC), servo motor (Fig. 3). The single
blend door actuator is located on the outboard side of
the rear heater-A/C unit housing, below the mode
door actuator. The blend door actuator is mechani-
cally connected to the blend air door. The blend dooractuator is interchangeable with the actuator for the
mode door. Each actuator is contained within an
identical black molded plastic housing with an inte-
gral wire connector receptacle. Two integral mount-
ing tabs allow the actuator to be secured with two
screws to the rear heater-A/C unit housing. Each

DESCRIPTION
TERMINAL LEGEND

30 COMMON FEED
85 COIL GROUND
86 COIL BATTERY
87 NORMALLY OPEN
87A NORMALLY CLOSED
The blower motor relay (Fig. 5) is a International
Standards Organization (ISO) mini-relay. Relays con-
forming to the ISO specifications have common phys-ical dimensions, current capacities, terminal
patterns, and terminal functions. The ISO mini-relay
terminal functions are the same as a conventional
ISO relay. However, the ISO mini-relay terminal pat-
tern (or footprint) is different, the current capacity is
lower, and the physical dimensions are smaller than
those of the conventional ISO relay. The blower
motor relay is located in the Intelligent Power Mod-
ule (IPM), which is in the engine compartment near
the battery. See the fuse and relay layout map
molded into the inner surface of the IPM cover for
compressor clutch relay identification and location.
The black, molded plastic case is the most visible
component of the blower motor relay. Five male
spade-type terminals extend from the bottom of the
base to connect the relay to the vehicle electrical sys-
tem, and the ISO designation for each terminal is
molded into the base adjacent to each terminal. The
ISO terminal designations are as follows:
²30 (Common Feed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the movable contact point of the relay.
²85 (Coil Ground)- This terminal is connected
to the ground feed side of the relay control coil.
²86 (Coil Battery)- This terminal is connected
to the battery feed side of the relay control coil.
²87 (Normally Open)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally open fixed contact point of the
relay.
²87A (Normally Closed)- This terminal is con-
nected to the normally closed fixed contact point of
the relay.
The factory-installed blower motor relay cannot be
adjusted or repaired. If the relay is damaged or
faulty, it must be replaced.
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 (automatic heat-
er-A/C control). The movable common feed contact
point is held against the fixed normally closed con-
tact point by spring pressure. When the relay coil is
energized, an electromagnetic field is produced by the
coil windings. This electromagnetic field draws the
movable relay contact point away from the fixed nor-
mally closed contact point, and holds it against the
fixed normally open contact point. When the relay
coil is de-energized, spring pressure returns the mov-
able contact point back against the fixed normally
closed contact point. The resistor or diode is con-
nected in parallel with the relay coil in the relay, and
helps to dissipate voltage spikes and electromagnetic
interference that can be generated as the electromag-
netic field of the relay coil collapses.

RSCONTROLS - REAR24-33
BLEND DOOR ACTUATOR (Continued)

OPERATION
The rear expansion valve solenoid is designed to
control the flow of refrigerant to the rear evaporator.
The solenoid receives fused battery current through
the rear blower motor relay on a fused rear blower
motor relay output circuit, and receives a ground
feed from the front ATC heater-A/C control module
on a TXV solenoid feed circuit. The front ATC heater-
A/C control module is programmed to control solenoid
operation. When the solenoid blocks refrigerant flow
to the rear evaporator, the resulting increase in the
refrigerant circulation rate between the condenser
and the front evaporator provides improved A/C cool-
ing performance for the front seat occupants. The
solenoid may be diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan
tool. Refer to the appropriate diagnostic information.
INFRARED TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The rear infrared temperature sensor consists of
an infrared transducer that is concealed behind the
lens of the rear heater-A/C control in the headliner.
This sensor is used only on models equipped with the
optional Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) heat-
ing and air conditioning system. The rear infrared
temperature sensor is integral to the rear heater-A/C
control. The infrared sensor cannot be adjusted orrepaired and, if faulty or damaged, the rear heater-
A/C control unit must be replaced.
OPERATION
The rear infrared temperature sensor provides an
independent measurement input to the Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC) heater-A/C control mod-
ule that indicates the surface temperature of the rear
seat occupants. By using a surface temperature mea-
surement, rather than an air temperature measure-
ment, the ATC system is able to adjust itself to the
comfort level as perceived by the occupant. This
allows the system to detect and compensate for other
ambient conditions affecting comfort levels, such as
solar heat gain or evaporative heat loss. The ATC
system logic responds to the infrared sensor input by
calculating and adjusting the air flow temperature
and air flow rate needed to properly obtain and
maintain the selected comfort level temperatures for
the rear seat occupants. The ATC heater-A/C control
module continually monitors the infrared sensor cir-
cuit, and will store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
for any problem it detects. This DTC information can
be retrieved and the infrared temperature sensor
diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to the
appropriate diagnostic information.

The mode door actuator is a reversible, 12-volt
Direct Current (DC), servo motor (Fig. 10). The sin-
gle mode door actuator is located on the outboard
side of the rear heater-A/C unit housing, above the
blend door actuator. The mode door actuator is
mechanically connected to the mode door linkage.
The mode door actuator is interchangeable with the
actuator for the blend air door. Each actuator is con-
tained within an identical black molded plastic hous-
ing with an integral wire connector receptacle. Two
integral mounting tabs allow the actuator to be
secured with two screws to the rear heater-A/C unit
housing. Each actuator also has an identical output
shaft with splines that connects it to the linkage or
pivot of the proper door. The mode door actuator does
not require mechanical indexing to the mode door
linkage, as it is electronically calibrated by the front
heater-A/C control module. The mode door actuator
cannot be adjusted or repaired and, if damaged or
faulty, it must be replaced.
OPERATION
The mode door actuator is connected to the front
heater-A/C control module through the vehicle elec-
trical system by a dedicated two-wire take out and
connector of the rear HVAC wire harness. The mode
door actuator can move the mode door in two direc-
tions. When the controlling heater-A/C control mod-
ule pulls the voltage on one side of the motor
connection high and the other connection low, the
mode door will move in one direction. When the mod-
ule reverses the polarity of the voltage to the motor,
the mode door moves in the opposite direction. When
the module makes the voltage to both connections
high or both connections low, the mode door stops
and will not move. These same motor connections
also provide a feedback signal to the front heater-A/C

the mode door actuator and the mode door. The front
heater-A/C control module learns the mode door stop
positions during the calibration procedure and will
store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) for any prob-
lems it detects in the mode door actuator circuits. A
DTC can be retrieved and the mode door actuator
can be diagnosed using a DRBIIItscan tool. Refer to
the appropriate diagnostic information.

POWER MODULE
DESCRIPTION
A blower power module is used on this model when
it is equipped with the optional Automatic Tempera-
ture Control (ATC) (Fig. 12). Models equipped with
the standard manual heater-A/C control use a blower
motor resistor, instead of the blower power module.
The blower power module is installed in a mounting
hole in the back of the rear heater-A/C unit housing,
directly above the expansion valve. The module con-
sists of a molded plastic mounting plate with two
integral connector receptacles. Concealed behind the
mounting plate within the evaporator housing is the
power module electronic circuitry and a large finned,
heat sink. The module 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 power module heat sink will get hot when in
use. Do not touch the heat sink if the blower motor
has been running. The blower power module cannot
be adjusted or repaired and, if faulty or damaged, it
must be replaced.
OPERATION
The blower power module is connected to the vehi-
cle electrical system through a dedicated take out
and connector of the rear HVAC wire harness. A sec-
ond connector receptacle receives the pigtail wire
connector from the blower motor. The blower power
module allows the microprocessor-based Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC) heater-A/C control mod-
ule to calculate and provide infinitely variable blower
motor speeds based upon either manual blower
switch input or the ATC programming using a Pulse
Width Modulated (PWM) circuit strategy. The PWM

AIR FILTER
DESCRIPTION
A dust and odor air filter is standard equipment on
models equipped with the dual zone or three zone
temperature control systems (Fig. 1). The filter ele-
ment is the same size as the front air conditionerevaporator to ensure ample filtering capacity. A
removable door on the bottom of the front heater-A/C
unit housing below the glove box provides easy access
to the filter element for replacement. Filter replace-
ment is recommended at 24,000 kilometer (15,000
mile) intervals.
REMOVAL

lower evaporator housing just outboard of the pas-
senger side of the instrument panel center stack (Fig.
2).
(2) Slide the air filter door latch toward the rear of
the vehicle until it engages the opened stop on the
door.
(3) Pull the air filter door straight downward to
