DTC    B1443/43    Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

The air outlet control servo motor sends pulse signals to indicate the damper position to the air conditioning amplifier assembly. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the air outlet control servo motor to any position, which controls the air outlet switching.
The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness assembly.

HINT:
Confirm that no mechanical problem is present because this DTC can be stored when either a damper link or the damper is mechanically locked.


DTC No.

3.INSPECT AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR

  1. Replace the air outlet control servo motor (Click here).

    HINT:
    Since the servo motor cannot be inspected while it is removed from the vehicle, replace the servo motor with a new or a known good one and check that the condition returns to normal.

  1. Check for the DTC.

    Result:
    Result
    		Proceed to
    DTC B1443/43 is output
    		A
    DTC B1443/43 is not output
    		B

END (AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVO MOTOR WAS DEFECTIVE)
A


4.INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING HARNESS ASSEMBLY

  1. Replace the air conditioning harness assembly (Click here).

    HINT:
    Since the air conditioning harness assembly cannot be inspected while it is removed from the vehicle, replace the air conditioning harness assembly with a new or a known good one and check that the condition returns to normal.

  1. Check for the DTC.
