Control System Inputs: Notes

The blower motor speed switch is mounted in the HVAC module and controls blower motor speed by adding or bypassing resistors in the blower motor resistor in all modes except OFF. The blower motor speed switch is serviced only as an assembly with the HVAC module.

The temperature control switch adjusts the discharge air temperature. Movement of the temperature knob from COOL (blue) to WARM (red) causes a corresponding movement of the temperature blend door. The position of the temperature blend door determines the discharge air temperature that the air distribution system will maintain. The temperature control selector is an integral part of the HVAC module and cannot be serviced separately.

The airflow mode setting adjusts the discharge air outlet location. Movement of the airflow mode selector causes a corresponding movement of the airflow mode doors and determines the discharge air outlet location. The airflow mode selector is an integral part of the HVAC module and cannot be serviced separately.

The A/C request button determines A/C compressor operation, except when the airflow mode selector is in the OFF, MAX A/C, DEFROST or FLOOR/DEFROST mode. The A/C request button is an integral part of the HVAC module and cannot be serviced separately.

The recirculated air request button can select recirculated air in any mode except DEFROST, and fresh air in any mode except MAX A/C or OFF. The recirculated air request button is an integral part of the HVAC module and cannot be serviced separately.

The rear defog button signals activation of the heated backlight. Under certain conditions, the heated backlight may be activated automatically by the PCM and Body Control Module (BCM). The rear defog button indicator may remain off during this time. The rear defog button is an integral part of the HVAC module and cannot be serviced separately.
