1. HVAC Malfunction |
Stepper motors are used for temperature regulation, air distribution control and recirculation flap control.
With the appropriate switches at the HVAC control, the desired air temperature flap position, air distribution flap position and recirculation flap position can be put in. The selected values are passed to the HVAC control module via serial data. The HVAC control module supplies a 12 V reference voltage to the stepper motors and energises the 4 stepper motor coils with a pulsed ground signal. The stepper motors put the appropriate flap into the calculated position, in order to reach the put in temperature/position.
• | Vehicle in Service Mode. |
• | The HVAC control module is ON. |
The stepper motors supply output is shorted to ground.
At least one control output (of 4 possible outputs) of the appropriate stepper motor is shorted to voltage when motor starts moving. Faults are not detected when motor is already running or target position is already reached.
At least one control output (of 4 possible outputs) of the appropriate stepper motor is shorted to ground or open when motor starts moving. Faults are not detected when motor is already running or target position is already reached.
• | The affected output will be switched off for hardware protection. |
• | All stepper motors are deactivated. |
• | The affected output will be switched off for hardware protection. |
• | The affected stepper motor is deactivated. |
The condition for setting the DTC is no longer present.
