L.H.D.

DTC B1C1A:11

Driver-side air mix actuator (potentiometer) circuit short to ground

DTC B1C1A:13

Driver-side air mix actuator (potentiometer) circuit open

DTC B1C1B:11

Passenger-side air mix actuator (potentiometer) circuit short to ground

DTC B1C1B:13

Passenger-side air mix actuator (potentiometer) circuit open

DETECTION CONDITION
CPU detects malfunction in air mix actuator (potentiometer) circuit
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Air mix actuator malfunction
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2K and air mix actuator connector terminal G (Driver-side)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2C and air mix actuator connector terminal F (Driver-side)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2L and air mix actuator connector terminal E (Driver-side)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2K and air mix actuator connector terminal E (Passenger-side)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2A and air mix actuator connector terminal F (Passenger-side)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2L and air mix actuator connector terminal G (Passenger-side)
•  Short to ground in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2C and air mix actuator connector terminal F (Driver-side)
•  Short to ground in wiring harness between climate control unit connector terminal 2A and air mix actuator connector terminal F (Passenger-side)

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
INSPECT AIR MIX ACTUATOR
•  Inspect the air mix actuator.
•  Is it normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the air mix actuator.
2
INSPECT AIR MIX ACTUATOR (POTENTIOMETER) CIRCUIT FOR OPEN CIRCUIT
•  Disconnect the climate control unit connector and the air mix actuator connector.
•  Is there an open circuit in the wiring harness between the following terminals of the climate control unit and the air mix actuator?
Driver-side
―  2K—G
―  2C—F
―  2L—E
Passenger-side
―  2K—E
―  2A—F
―  2L—G
Yes
Repair the wiring harness.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT AIR MIX ACTUATOR (POTENTIOMETER) SHORT TO GROUND
•  Is there a short circuit to ground in the wiring harness between the following terminals of the climate control unit terminal and air mix actuator terminal?
―  2C—F (Driver-side)
―  2A—F (Passenger-side)
Yes
Repair the wiring harness.
No
The system is normal at present. (Clear the past malfunction from the memory.)
