INSUFFICIENT AIRFLOW OR NO AIRFLOW IN SOME MODES

Check the following components and systems for any listed condition. Repair or replace as necessary and retest system.

  1. Faulty airflow mode control knob cable and/or adjustment.
  2. Obstructions in ducting.
  3. Deformed, leaking or improperly installed ducting.

NO AIRFLOW IN ANY MODE

Check the following components and systems for proper operation. Repair or replace as necessary and retest system.

  1. Faulty blower motor relay, blower motor, resistor and blower motor switch.
  2. Obstructions in ducting.

AIRFLOW MODE DOES NOT CHANGE

Check the following components and systems for any listed condition. Repair or replace as necessary and retest system.

  1. Faulty airflow mode control knob cable and adjustment.
  2. Incorrect installation and/or lubrication of airflow mode linkage and cable clamp.

INCORRECT OR NO AIR CIRCULATION

Check the following components and systems for any listed condition. Repair or replace as necessary and retest system.

  1. Faulty fresh/recirculated air mode control lever cable and/or adjustment.
  2. Incorrect installation and/or lubrication of fresh/recirculated air mode linkage and cable clamp.
  3. Deformed, leaking or improperly installed ducting.

NO HOT AIR AT ANY TEMPERATURE SETTING

Check the following components and systems for any listed condition. Repair or replace as necessary and retest system.

  1. Ensure engine coolant is full and at normal operating temperature.
  2. Incorrect installation and lubrication of temperature blend mode linkage and cable clamp.
  3. Deformed, leaking or improperly installed ducting.

COMPONENT TESTS

WARNINGTo avoid injury from accidental air bag deployment, read and carefully follow all SERVICE PRECAUTIONS and DISABLING & ACTIVATING AIR BAG SYSTEM procedures in AIR BAG SYSTEM SAFETY article in GENERAL SERVICING.

BLOWER MOTOR

Remove glove box. Disconnect harness connector from bottom of blower motor. Using jumper wire, connect battery voltage to blower motor terminal "A". Using second jumper wire, connect blower motor terminal "B" to ground. Replace blower motor if it does not operate.

BLOWER MOTOR RELAY

Remove blower unit. See BLOWER UNIT under REMOVAL & INSTALLATION. Disconnect blower motor relay harness connector and remove relay from blower case. Using ohmmeter, check continuity between blower motor relay terminals "C" and "D". Continuity should not exist. (Scheme 8) Apply battery voltage to terminal "A" and ground terminal "E". Ensure continuity now exists between terminals "C" and "D". Replace blower motor relay if continuity is not as specified.
