B10A4






B10A4-LEFT BLEND DOOR CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH (DUAL-ZONE)






For a complete wiring diagram refer to Diagrams/Electrical.

Theory of Operation

The A/C Heater Control drives the Left Blend Door Actuator via the (C61) Blend Door Driver circuit and the (C34) Common Door Driver circuit. All of the door actuators share the (C34) Common Door Driver circuit. Inside the A/C Heater Control, each door actuator has its own unique driver, but all share a single common door driver circuit. Due to the shared circuitry similar DTCs can set at the same time for multiple actuators depending upon the type of short, its location, and the direction the actuator is moving when the short is present.

- When Monitored:

When the Actuator DTC Detection Test is executed.

- Set Condition:

If the (C61) Blend Door Driver circuit is shorted to voltage.






Diagnostic Test

1. CHECK (C61) BLEND DOOR DRIVER CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE






NOTE: If present, diagnose and repair DTC B10AB Right Blend Door Control Circuit High or B10AA Right Blend Door Control Circuit Low before proceeding.

Turn the ignition off.

Disconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Turn the ignition on.

Measure the voltage of the (C61) Blend Door Driver circuit.

Is the voltage above 0.2 volts?

Yes

- Repair the (C61) Blend Door Driver circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No

- Go To 2

2. RUN THE ACTUATOR DTC DETECTION TEST

Turn the ignition off.

Reconnect the A/C Heater Control C1 harness connector.

Turn the ignition on.

With the scan tool in HVAC, select System Tests and then select Actuator DTC Detection. When the test is complete, select View DTCs.

Does the scan tool only display: B10A4-LEFT BLEND DOOR CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH?

Yes

- Replace the A/C Heater Control.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test

No, Other DTC(s) Displayed

- Diagnose and repair the DTC(s). If multiple DTCs are present, beginning with the passenger blend door, diagnose and repair all short high DTCs and then all short low DTCs.

No, And No Other DTCs Displayed

- Using the wiring diagram as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors for conditions causing an intermittent short. Repair as necessary.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test
