Note. Self-adjustment must be carried out if the control module or damper motor is replaced or the damper motor or its linkage has been removed. The indication LED on the climate control module panel will flash during adjustment.
HINT: During self-adjustment the control module runs the damper motors to their limit positions. The control module then stores the value returned from the position sensor for the damper motor. The control module is then able to operate the motor between the limit positions during normal operation.

HINT: During self-adjustment the control module runs the damper motors to their limit positions. The control module then stores the value returned from the position sensor for the damper motor. The control module is then able to operate the motor between the limit positions during normal operation.
- Start the engine (the generator charges)
- Activate self-adjustment. The self-adjustment takes thirty seconds. NOTE: Self-adjustment can only be carried out once in the same ignition cycle. To run the self-adjustment again, switch off the ignition, wait 10 seconds and start the engine again. The indication LED stops flashing when the self-adjustment is complete.
- Continue Refer to «Verification»(ref-441373-S37268349752011121500000)
HINT: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.
- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on
- Start the blower fan
- Read off the position sensor
- Activate the damper motor by slowly turning the selector for air distribution between its different positions. Check that position sensor values change when the control is turned. If the value changes this indicates that damper motor is OK.
Does the position sensor value change?
- YES VERIFIED: Troubleshooting has been completed.
- NO Refer to «Information»(ref-441373-S06625690542011121500000)
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.
Checking cables
Check the cable between climate control unit terminal #A27 and power unit terminal #4. Check blower fan motor terminal #2 and the maximum relay for blower fan terminal #4. Check for a short-circuit to ground.
Note. When the ignition is on and the blower fan is not activated, the voltage on the diagnostic cable is approximately the same as battery voltage (U bat ). The signal voltage falls with increased fan speed when the blower fan is activated.
Try a new power unit or a new blower fan relay if the cables are ok.
Remedy as necessary.
