Recirc Door Not Responding (ATC)
RECIRC DOOR NOT RESPONDING (ATC)
For a complete wiring diagram Consult Diagrams/Electrical
- When Monitored:
With the ignition on.
- Set Condition:
This DTC will set if the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) does not receive feedback pulses within 5 seconds of the drive voltage being applied.
Diagnostic Test
1. ACTIVE HVAC DTC(S) PRESENT
Turn the ignition on.
Using the scan tool, clear all HVAC DTC's.
Using the A/C Heater Control, operate the Recirculation Door Actuator.
With the scan tool, check for DTCs.
Does the scan tool display this DTC as active?
Yes
- Go To2
No
- The condition that caused this symptom is currently not present. Check for an intermittent condition by inspecting the related wiring harness for chafed, pierced, pinched, and partially broken wires. Also, inspect the related connectors for broken, bent, pushed out, spread, corroded, or contaminated terminals. Repair as necessary.
- Perform the BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
2. DOOR DRIVER CIRCUIT SHORTED HIGH
Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Recirculation Door actuator harness connector.
Disconnect the HVAC Control Head harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Measure the voltage between the (C32) Recirculation Door Driver (A) circuit and ground.
Measure the voltage between the (C132) Recirculation Door Driver (B) circuit and ground.
Is the voltage above 0.2 volts on either circuit?
Yes
- Repair the Door Driver circuit with voltage above 0.2 volts for a short to voltage.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To3
3. DOOR DRIVER CIRCUIT SHORTED LOW
Turn the ignition off.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (C32) Recirculation Door Driver (A) circuit.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (C132) Recirculation Door Driver (B) circuit.
Does the ohm meter read open circuit?
Yes
Go To4
No
- Repair the Door Driver circuit with resistance for a short to ground.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
4. (C32) RECIRCULATION DOOR DRIVER (A) CIRCUIT OPEN
Measure the resistance of the (C32) Recirculation Door Driver (A) circuit between the HVAC Control Head harness connector and the Recirculation Door Actuator harness connector.
Does the ohm meter read open circuit?
Yes
- Repair the (C32) Recirculation Door Driver (A) circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To5
5. (C132) RECIRCULATION DOOR DRIVER (B) CIRCUIT OPEN
Measure the resistance of the (C132) Recirculation Door Driver (B) circuit between the HVAC Control Head harness connector and the Recirculation Door Actuator harness connector.
Does the ohm meter read open circuit?
Yes
- Repair the (C132) Recirculation Door Driver (B) circuit for an open.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
No
- Go To6
6. CHECK THE DOOR ACTUATOR'S CIRCUIT RESISTANCE
Measure the resistance between pin 1 and pin 2 at the Recirculation Door Actuator.
Is the resistance below 30.0 ohms?
Yes
- Replace the Recirculation Door Actuator.
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
No
- Replace the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC).
- Perform BODY VERIFICATION TEST - VER 1. Body Verification Test.
