Air Conditioning/Recirc




The air conditioning compressor may be energized in any mode by depressing the A/C switch. This will cause the air passing through the evaporator core to be cooled and dehumidified.

When the Recirc button is depressed the recirc motor moves the air inlet valve from outside air to recirculate air position. In this position air from the passenger compartment is recirculated through the module. This function allows for maximum air conditioning performance. The use of Recirc in cold and damp or humid weather will cause the windows to fog up.

When defroster/defog is selected the controller will return the HVAC module operation to the mode that draws fresh outside air into the vehicle regardless to the position of the Recirc button.
