Description

DESCRIPTION





The mode door actuator (1) used in the rear center floor console when equipped with the automatic temperature control (ATC) heating-A/C system is a reversible, 12-volt direct current (DC) servo motor. The rear mode door actuator is located in the rear blower motor housing within the center floor console. The rear mode door actuator is mechanically connected to the two floor console mode-air doors.

The rear mode door actuator is interchangeable with the actuator for the front mode-air doors, front blend-air doors and the recirculation-air door. Each actuator is contained within an identical black molded plastic housing with an integral wire connector receptacle (2). Each actuator also has an identical output shaft with splines (3) that connect it to its respective door linkage and two integral mounting tabs (4) that allow the actuator to be secured to the rear blower motor housing. The rear mode door actuator does not require mechanical indexing to the rear mode-air door linkage, as it is electronically calibrated by the A/C-heater control.

The A/C-heater control must be recalibrated each time an actuator motor is replaced.
