The No. 1 blower 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 inlet damper to the appropriate position, which controls the air inlet switching.
The air conditioning amplifier assembly communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness assembly.

This DTC is also output for the damper link, damper lock, etc. Before performing inspection, perform servomotor initialization and check that there are no mechanical malfunctions.
This DTC is also output when servomotor initialization has failed. When servomotor initialization has failed, repair any malfunctions and perform servomotor initialization again.
Check for DTCs.
