Recirculation Control Motor

Recirculation Control Motor Test




1. Connect battery power to the (1) terminal of the recirculation control motor connector and ground to the (2) and (3) terminals; the recirculation control motor should move smoothly.
2. Disconnect the ground from (2) or (3); the recirculation control motor should stop at FRESH or REC.

CAUTION: Never connect the battery in the opposite direction.

NOTE:
^ If the recirculation control motor does not run when shorting the first terminal, short that terminal again after shorting the other terminals. The recirculation control motor is normal if it runs when shorting the first terminal again.
^ Don't cycle the recirculation control motor for a long time.
^ After adjusting the recirculation control rod, check the recirculation motor on FRESH or REC for two minutes to make sure it operates properly.
