AQS (Air Quality System) keeps air inside in the most suitable state for driver. In polluted area AQS detects hazardous gas and intercepts inflow automatically, Inversely, In fresh area it allows the inflow of air to prevent the shortage of air and the accumulation of carbon dioxide. AQS sensor is located at front side of condenser and once hazardous gas is detected, it delivers the voltage signal to A/C controller for closing intake door.

  3. Check A/C Control Unit. Engine "ON" Connect A/C Control Unit. Measure voltage between terminal "13" and "14" of A/C Control Unit while operating the temp, switch. Specification:Approx. 12V Is the measured voltage within specifications? YES Check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to " «VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) " procedure. NO Substitute with a known-good A/C Control Unit and check for proper operation. If the problem is corrected, replace A/C Control Unit and then go to " «VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) " procedure.

After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault has been corrected.

  1. Connect scantool and select "Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs)" mode and then clear DTC.
  2. Operate the vehicle and monitor the DTC on the scantool.
  3. Are any DTCs present? YES Go to the «APPLICABLE TROUBLESHOOTING PROCEDURE»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) . NO System is performing to specification at this time.

Intake door located at heater unit controls the inlet of car. When driver operates the intake switch, A/C controller recirculationeives mode signal from intake switch and operates intake door actuator to turn intake door to intended position, (with fresh mode signal, intake door is closed and with fresh mode signal, intake door is opened.

The A/C controller sets DTC B2408 if the intake motor Doesn't move to intended position within 40sec (The A/C controller attempts to move the intake door for a 2 second duration at a frequency of 3 times every 20 seconds before storing a DTC.)

  1. Connect scantool to Data Link Connector (DLC).
  2. Engine "ON"
  3. Monitor the "Intake Potentiometer" Parameter on the Scantool while operating Intake switch.
  4. Are the DTC B2408 present and is parameter of "Intake Potentiometer" fixed? * There is any fault in Intake potentiometer. If the parameter of "Intake potentiometer" is 30% or less when the actuator operates to the fresh position, or If the parameter is 60% and more when the actuator operates to the recirculation position. YES Go to " «INSPECTION»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) " procedure. NO Fault is intermittent caused by poor contact in the sensor's and/or A/C controller's connector or was repaired and A/C controller memory was not cleared. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage. Repair or replace as necessary and then go to " «VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) " procedure.
  1. Many malfunctions in the electrical system are caused by poor harness and terminals. Faults can also be caused by interference from other electrical systems, and mechanical or chemical damage.
  2. Thoroughly check connectors for looseness, poor connection, bending, corrosion, contamination, deterioration, or damage.
  3. Has a problem been found? YES Repair as necessary and go to " «VERIFICATION OF VEHICLE REPAIR»(/hyundai/santa-fe/ii-2005-2010/remont/ac-compressor/#heating-ventilation-air-conditioning) " procedure.
