DTC |
B1441/41 |
Air Mix Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit (Passenger Side) |
DESCRIPTION
The air mix control servo motor sends pulse signals to indicate the damper position to the air conditioning amplifier. The air conditioning amplifier activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the air mix damper (front passenger side) to any position. As a result, the amount of air passing through the heater core after passing through the evaporator is adjusted, and the temperature of the air blowing toward the passenger side is controlled.
The air conditioning amplifier communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness.
HINT:
Confirm that no mechanical problem is present because this DTC can be output when either a damper link or the damper is mechanically locked.

INSPECT AIR MIX CONTROL SERVO MOTOR |
(a) Replace the air mix control servo motor (See page
![2016 MY Sienna [12/2015 - 08/2016]; HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: FRONT AIR CONDITIONING UNIT: DISASSEMBLY](/t3Portal/stylegraphics/info.gif)
).
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.
(b) Check for the DTC.
