  • Temperature blend door binding/stuck.
  • Temperature blend door actuator.
  • The air conditioning (A/C) is inoperative/does not operate correctly
  • Fuse(s).
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • A/C cycling switch.
  • Low refrigerant system charge.
  • Function selector switch.
  • Pressure cutoff switch.
  • A/C control relay.
  • Powertrain control module (PCM).
  • A/C compressor clutch air gap.
  • A/C compressor clutch field coil.
  • The air conditioning (A/C) is always on
  • Circuitry short.
  • Function selector switch.
  • A/C control relay.
  • PCM.
  • A/C compressor clutch air gap.
  • Insufficient air conditioning (A/C) cooling - auxiliary system
  • Thermostatic expansion valve.
  • Leaking or restricted vacuum hose.
  • Vacuum control motor.
  • Sticking mode door.
  • Temperature control is inoperative/does not operate correctly
  • Fuse(s).
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • Temperature blend door actuator.
  • Temperature control switch.
  • The blower motor is inoperative
  • Fuse(s).
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • Blower motor relay.
  • Function selector switch.
  • Blower motor.
  • The blower motor does not operate correctly
  • Blower motor switch.
  • Blower motor resistor.
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • The auxiliary blower motor is inoperative
  • Fuse(s).
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • Auxiliary blower motor relay.
  • Auxiliary blower motor switch.
  • Auxiliary high speed blower motor relay.
  • Auxiliary blower motor.
  • The auxiliary blower motor does not operate correctly
  • Auxiliary blower motor switch.
  • Auxiliary blower motor resistor.
  • Circuitry open/short.
  • The auxiliary temperature/mode is inoperative/does not operate correctly
  • Auxiliary temperature actuator.
  • Auxiliary mode actuator.
  • Auxiliary vacuum source line.
  • If both temperature and mode are affected, REPAIR the vacuum source line for an obstruction or leak. TEST the system for normal operation.
   
  • If the temperature or mode alone are affected, inspect the temperature or mode door for a binding or broken condition. If no condition is found, INSTALL a new actuator. TEST the system for normal operation.
