DTC

B1443

Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit

DESCRIPTION

The No. 1 air conditioning radiator damper servo sub-assembly (mode) sends pulse signals to inform the air conditioning amplifier assembly of the damper position. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the air outlet damper to the appropriate position, which controls the air outlet switching.

The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness assembly.
