Self-Diagnosis FunctionINFOID:0000000001328181
DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnosis system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to appli-
cable sections (items) for details. Shifting from norma l control to the self-diagnosis system is accomplished by
starting the engine (turning the ignition switch ON) and pr essing OFF switch for at least 5 seconds. The OFF
switch must be pressed within 10 seconds after starting the engine (ignition switch is turned ON). This system
will be canceled by either pressing AUTO switch or turn ing the ignition switch OFF. Shifting from one step is
accomplished by means of pressi ng temperature control switch (driver side), as required.

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
Shifting from STEP-5 to AUXILIARY MECHANISM is accomplished by means of pressing (fan) UP switch.
FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1.SET IN SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE
1. Turn ignition switch ON.
2. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned ON.), press OFF switch for at least 5 seconds.
NOTE:
 If battery voltage drops below 12 V during diagnosis STEP-3, door motor speed becomes slower and as a
result, the system may generate an error even when operation is normal. To avoid this, start engine before
performing this diagnosis.
 Former STEP-1 (LEDs and display screen are checked) does not exist in this self-diagnosis function.
>> GO TO 2.
2.STEP-2: SENSOR CIRCUITS ARE CHECK ED FOR OPEN OR SHORT CIRCUIT

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Unified Meter and A/C Amp. (Automatic Amplifier)
The unified meter and A/C amp. has a built-in microcomputer which
processes information sent from various sensors needed for air con-
ditioner operation. The air mix door motor, mode door motor, intake
door motor, blower motor and compressor are then controlled.
When the various switches and temperature control switch are oper-
ated, data is input to the unified meter and A/C amp. from the display
control unit using CAN communication.
Self-diagnosis functions are also built into unified meter and A/C
amp. to provide quick check of malfunctions in the auto air condi-
tioner system.

System Operation
The unified meter and A/C amp. receives data from each of the sensors. The unified meter and A/C amp.
sends air mix door, mode door and intake door opening angle data to the air mix door motor LCUs, mode door
motor LCU and intake door motor LCU.
The air mix door motors, mode door motor and intake door motor read their respective signals according to the
address signal. Opening angle indication signals received from the unified meter and A/C amp. and each of
the motor position sensors are compared by the LCUs in each door motor with the existing decision and open-
ing angles. Subsequently, HOT/COLD, DEF/VENT and FRE/ REC operation is selected. The new selection
data are returned to the unified meter and A/C amp.

The air mix door motors are attached to the heater & cooling unit
assembly. It rotates so that the air mix door is opened or closed to a
position set by the unified meter and A/C amp. Motor rotation is then
conveyed through a shaft and the air mix door position feedback is
then sent to the unified meter and A/C amp. by PBR built-in air mix
door motor.
