The No. 2 rear cooling unit damper servo sub-assembly sends pulse signals to inform the air conditioning amplifier assembly of the damper position. The air conditioning amplifier assembly activates the motor (normal or reverse) based on these signals to move the air outlet damper to the appropriate position, which controls the rear air outlet switching. The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the No. 2 air conditioning harness assembly.

If the conditions match either of these patterns, a DTC will be output.
Confirm that no mechanical problems are present because this DTC can be stored when either a damper link or damper is mechanically locked.
When installing a damper servo motor, make sure to install it correctly.
After replacing a damper servo motor, make sure to perform Servo Motor Initialization.
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON.
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Body Electrical / Air Conditioner / Trouble Codes.
