Theory of Operation
The A/C Heater Control monitors the door driver circuits during actuator operation for shorts to ground, shorts to battery, and shorts to other door driver circuits. If detected, the A/C Heater Control reports these types of faults as Control Circuit/Performance DTCs.
- When Monitored:
When actuator movement is requested.
- Set Condition:
If the A/C Heater Control detects an excessive current draw on any of the door driver circuits while attempting to drive this door actuator.
NOTE: This DTC must be active for the results of this test to be valid. Do not perform this test if this DTC is stored. Refer to HVAC System Test (ATC) for stored DTC test procedures HVAC System Test.
