Control Assembly: Description and Operation

The climate control assembly has three system controls:
- The A/C heater function selector switch combines a vacuum selector valve with two electrical switches to supply battery voltage (B+) to the A/C clutch circuit and the blower motor speed control circuit.
- Temperature selection is accomplished with a potentiometer connected to the electric blend door. Movement of the control knob from COOL (Blue) to WARM (Red) causes a corresponding movement on the air temperature blend door and determines the temperature that the system will maintain.
- The blower motor switch controls blower motor speed by adding or bypassing resistors in the heater blower motor switch resitor.
