DTC 19

Air mix actuator (potentiometer) system inspection

POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  Air mix actuator malfunction
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between A/C amplifier connector terminal 2P and air mix actuator connector terminal C (L.H.D.), A (R.H.D.)
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between A/C amplifier connector terminal 2D and air mix actuator connector terminal E
•  Open circuit in wiring harness between A/C amplifier connector terminal 2N and air mix actuator connector terminal A (L.H.D.), C (R.H.D.)
•  Short to ground in wiring harness between A/C amplifier connector terminal 2D and air mix actuator connector terminal E

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 A/C amplifier connector (16-pin) and the air mix actuator connector.
•  Is there an open circuit in the wiring harness between the following terminals of the A/C amplifier connector (16-pin) and the air mix actuator connector?
―  2P—C (L.H.D.), A (R.H.D.)
―  2D—E
―  2N—A (L.H.D.), C (R.H.D.)
Yes
Repair the wiring harness.
No
Go to the next step.
3
INSPECT AIR MIX ACTUATOR (POTENTIOMETER) CIRCUIT FOR SHORT TO GROUND
•  Is there a short circuit to ground in the wiring harness between A/C amplifier connector (16-pin) terminal 2D and air mix actuator connector terminal E?
Yes
Repair the wiring harness.
No
The system is normal at present. (Clear the past malfunction from memory.)
