Blend-Air Door Positioning
As an aid to diagnosis, blend air door can be locked in full reheat, minimum reheat or a mid-position by over-riding the temperature sensors. Adjust as follows:
- For full reheat, disconnect In-Car-Sensor from red harness connector and switch on system.
- For minimum reheat, connect jumper wire between point "E" of disconnected red harness connector and harness ground connection. See Figure. Switch system on to position door.
- If a mid-position is desired, disconnect battery, SATC harness and blower motor ground lugs, then reconnect blower ground. Temporarily reconnect harness ground lug to a good body ground and reconnect battery. Move temperature control lever to set blend-air door in desired position, then disconnect jumper wire. Door will remain in this position until harness ground lug is reconnected to body ground.
- Electronic high-torque servomotor normally produces a low, humming sound as blend air door moves. If servomotor does not move, check for minimum of 11 volts between servomotor power feed and ground lug and associated wires.
