| 4.INSPECT AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVOMOTOR |
![]() |
Remove the air outlet control servomotor.
Disconnect the connector from the air outlet control servomotor.
LHD: Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 4 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 5, then check that the lever turns to the "DEF" position smoothly.
RHD: Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 5 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4, then check that the lever turns to the "DEF" position smoothly.
LHD: Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 5 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 4, then check that the lever turn to the "FACE" position smoothly.
RHD: Connect the positive (+) lead from the battery to terminal 4 and the negative (-) lead to terminal 5, then check that the lever turn to the "FACE" position smoothly.

| 5.CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (AIR OUTLET CONTROL SERVOMOTOR - A/C AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY) |
![]() |
Disconnect the connector from the A/C amplifier assembly.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Tester connection (Symbols) | Condition | Specified condition |
| A10-5 (AOF) - A22-5 (FACE)*1
| Always | Below 1 Ω |
| A10-5 (AOF) - A22-4 (FACE)*2
| Always | Below 1 Ω |
| A10-6 (AOD) - A22-4 (DEF)*1
| Always | Below 1 Ω |
| A10-6 (AOD) - A22-5 (DEF)*2
| Always | Below 1 Ω |
| A10-5 (AOF) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
| A10-6 (AOD) - Body ground | Always | 10 kΩ or higher |
