DTC    B1432/32    Air Inlet Damper Position Sensor Circuit

for Preparation Click here


DESCRIPTION

E109300E01
This sensor detects the position of the air inlet control servomotor and sends the appropriate signals to the A/C amplifier assembly. The position sensor is built in the air inlet control servomotor.
The position sensor's resistance changes as the air inlet control servomotor arm moves.
It outputs voltage (5 V) that is input to terminal 1 (VZ) and terminal 3 (PT) via the variable resister, and then to the A/C amplifier assembly.
The A/C amplifier reads the arm position with the input voltage from the position sensor.

DTC No.

2.INSPECT AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY


    E109265E21
  1. Remove the A/C amplifier assembly with the connectors still connected.

  1. Change the set REC/FRS to activate the air inlet servomotor.

  1. Measure the voltage according to the value(s) in the table below.

    Voltage:
    Tester connection
    (Symbols)
    Condition
    Specified condition
    A10-7 (TPI) - A10-17 (SG-4)
    Ignition switch ON
    RECIRCULATION position
    3.8 to 4.8 V
    A10-7 (TPI) - A10-17 (SG-4)
    Ignition switch ON
    FRESH position
    0.2 to 1.2 V
    A10-13 (S5-4) - A10-17 (SG-4)
    Ignition switch ON
    4.5 to 5.5 V
    A10-13 (S5-4) - A10-17 (SG-4)
    Ignition switch OFF
    Below 1 V

    HINT:
    As the air inlet servomotor is moved from REC side to FRS side, the voltage decreases gradually without interruption.
