The number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the diagnostic table.

3. This step checks for a default action by the actuator. The actuator will default to 128 counts if the air temperature door position circuit is open, shorted to ground, or shorted to voltage. It will also default to this value if the low reference circuit or the 5 volt reference circuit is open.
4. Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the high voltage range.
5. Tests for the proper operation of the circuit in the low voltage range. If the fuse in the jumper opens when you perform this test, the signal circuit is shorted to voltage.
6. Tests for a short to ground in the 5 volt reference circuit.
