Purpose
The air intake actuator moves the air intake door in the blower unit to switch the air intake port.
Function
The air intake actuator drives the motor based on the signal from the climate control unit and moves the air intake door to the FRESH or REC position.
Construction
A mechanical lock-type air intake actuator has been adopted.
The air intake actuator is installed to the blower unit.
Operation
1. The climate control unit outputs a motor drive signal to the air intake actuator based on the air intake mode determined by the air intake control.
2. When the air intake actuator moves to FRESH or REC, the motor locks.
3. When the motor locks and is under excessive load, the current value flowing from the climate control unit increases more than the specification (lock current).
4. When the lock current is detected, the climate control unit stops the motor drive signal to the air intake actuator.
Fail-safe
Function not equipped.
Blind Spot Monitoring (Bsm) System
Outline
The blind spot monitoring (BSM) system detects vehicles approaching from
the rear blind spots, and illuminates the BSM indicator light on the outer mirror
glass. When the BSM indicator light is illuminated and the turn light switch
is turned on to the side in which the indica ...
Intake Air Temperature (Iat) Sensor Inspection
IAT Sensor No.1
Resistance inspection
NOTE:
Because the IAT sensor No.1 is integrated in the MAF sensor, replacing the
IAT sensor No.1 includes replacement of the MAF sensor/IAT sensor No.1.
1. Disconnect the negative battery cable..
2. Disconnect the MAF sensor/IAT sensor No.1 ...
Variable Valve Timing Mechanism
Outline
Achieves optimum valve timing according to the driving conditions by the
variable valve timing mechanism changing the phases of the camshaft.
An electric type variable valve timing mechanism on the intake side and a
hydraulic pressure type on the exhaust side has been ad ...
