The No. 1 air conditioning radiator 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 air outlet switching.

If the conditions of either of these patterns are detected, a DTC will be stored.
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.
