Self-diagnosis Function
EJS001ZH
DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnostic system diagnoses sensors, door motors, blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to appli-
cable sections (items) for details. Shifting from usual control to the self-diagnostic system is accomplished by
starting the engine (turning the ignition switch from OFF to ON) and pressing OFF switch for at least 5 sec-
onds. 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 A/C switch or turning the ignition switch OFF. Shifting
from one step to another is accomplished by means of turning temperature dial, as required.
Additionally shifting from STEP 6 to AUXILIARY MECHANISM is accomplished by means of pushing (fan)
UP switch.

AUXILIARY MECHANISM: TEMPERATURE SETTING TRIMMER
The trimmer compensates for differences in range of ±3°C (±6°F) between temperature setting (displayed dig-
itally) and temperature felt by driver.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
●Begin Self-diagnosis STEP 5 mode.
●Press (fan) UP switch to set system in auxiliary mode.
●Display shows 61 in auxiliary mechanism.It takes approximately 3 seconds.
●Turn the temperature dial as desired. Temperature will change at a rate of 1°C (2°F) each time a dial is
turned.

Operational CheckEJS001ZI
The purpose of the operational check is to confirm that the system operates properly.
CHECKING MEMORY FUNCTION
1. Set the temperature 90°F or 32°C.
2. Press OFF switch.
3. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
5. Press the AUTO switch.
6. Confirm that the set temperature remains at previous tempera-
ture.
7. Press OFF switch.
If NG, go to ATC-99, "
Memory Function" .
If OK, continue with next check.
CHECKING BLOWER
1. Press fan switch (up side) one time. Blower should operate on
low speed.The fan symbol should have one blade lit .
2. Press fan switch (up side) one more time, and continue check-
ing blower speed and fan symbol until all speeds are checked.
3. Leave blower on MAX speed.
If NG, go to ATC-69, "
Blower Motor Circuit" .
If OK, continue with next check.Conditions :Engine running and at usual operating temperature

TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Component Parts
Fan speed control system components are:
●Auto amp.
●A/C LAN system (PBR built-in air mix door motor, mode door motor and intake door motor)
●Fan control amp.
●In-vehicle sensor
●Ambient sensor
●Sunload sensor
●Intake sensor
System Operation
Automatic Mode
In the automatic mode, the blower motor speed is calculated by the automatic amplifier based on input from
the PBR, in-vehicle sensor, sunload sensor, intake sensor and ambient sensor.
The blower motor applied voltage ranges from approximately 4 volts (lowest speed) to 12 volts (highest
speed).
The control blower speed (in the range of 4 to 12V), the automatic amplifier supplies a gate voltage to the fan
control amplifier. Based on this voltage, the fan control amplifier 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 56°C (133°F), 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.

AT C
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
56°C (133°F), at which time the blower speed will increase to the objective speed.
Start Up From Usual or HOT SOAK Condition (Automatic mode)
The blower will begin operation momentarily after the A/C button is pushed. The blower speed will gradually
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 low or no sunload, the blower
low speed is usual low speed (approx. 4V). During high sunload conditions, the auto amp causes the blower
fan speed to increase.(Approx. 7V)
Fan Speed Control Specification
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Fan Control Amplifier
The fan control amplifier is located on the heater & 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 4 to 12 volt range.
DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE FOR BLOWER MOTOR
SYMPTOM: Blower motor operation is malfunctioning under starting
fan speed control.
