General Description

The purpose of the heater is to supply heat to the interior of the vehicle. The vehicle operator can determine the level of heat by turning the temperature control, located on the HVAC control module, to any setting. The temperature control can change the vehicle's air temperature regardless of the HVAC mode setting, heater or A/C.

The fuse block provides power to the left air temperature actuator through the ignition 3 voltage circuit. Power and ground are provided to the HVAC control module by the ignition 3 voltage, battery positive voltage and ground circuits.

When a desired temperature setting is selected, a signal is sent from the HVAC control module to the left air temperature actuator through the air temperature door control circuit. When the logic receives the signal, the left air temperature actuator moves the temperature door to a position to divert sufficient air past the heater core to achieve the desired vehicle temperature. Ground is provided by the ground circuit.
