DESCRIPTION
If the airflow from the front registers is weak regardless of the blower speed setting displayed on the air conditioning control assembly, the following factors may be the cause.
Symptom
|
Factor
|
-
Airflow volume is constantly low
-
Airflow volume sometimes becomes low
|
-
Blower motor with fan sub-assembly malfunction
-
ECO mode control of air conditioning system is enabled
-
Clogged clean air filter
-
Clogged No. 1 evaporator sub-assembly or heater radiator unit sub-assembly fins
-
No. 1 cooler thermistor malfunction
-
Aspirator not connected properly

PROCEDURE
1.
|
CHECK AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
|
(a) Operate the blower switch with the following conditions met and check that the airflow volume changes.
Blower Speed
|
Condition
|
LO → HI
|
-
Temperature setting: MAX COLD
-
Air outlet mode: FACE
-
A/C switch: Off
|
OK:
Airflow volume increases.
OK
|

2.
|
CHECK ECO MODE CONTROL OPERATION
|
(a) Check that ECO mode control is disabled (ECO mode indicator is not illuminated).
(b) Operate the ECO switch assembly (electric parking brake switch assembly) and check that the ECO mode indicator illuminates and the blower speed is reduced.
HINT:
-
When ECO mode control is operating, the air conditioning amplifier assembly controls the air conditioning system to enhance fuel efficiency. Therefore, explain to the customer that, when ECO mode control is operating, the blower speed will be reduced.
Control
|
Outline
|
Blower Control
|
When the air conditioning system is in AUTO mode, the blower speed will be reduced to a certain speed. Additionally, if warm-up control is operating, the blower speed will be further reduced.
|
Air Inlet Control
|
If the ambient temperature is a certain value or more, the air inlet mode will be changed to recirculation mode.
|
-
In some situations, ECO mode control may not operate even though it is enabled.
(c) Operate the ECO switch assembly (electric parking brake switch assembly) and check that the ECO mode indicator turns off and the blower speed returns to normal.
OK:
When the ECO switch assembly (electric parking brake switch assembly) is operated, ECO mode control is enabled/disabled and the blower speed is controlled.
OK
|
