Title: HEATING / AIR CONDITIONING: AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM (except TMC Made, and Gasoline Model, with Manual Air Conditioning System for Electrical Control Type): B1497; Communication Malfunction (Bus Ic); 2023 MY Corolla Corolla Hatchback GR Corolla [09/2022 - 11/2022]

DTC

B1497

Communication Malfunction (Bus Ic)

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioning harness assembly connects the air conditioning amplifier assembly and the servo motors. The air conditioning amplifier assembly supplies power and sends operation instructions to each servo motor through the air conditioning harness assembly. Each servo motor sends damper position information to the air conditioning amplifier assembly.
