The blower motor with fan sub-assembly is operated by signals from the air conditioning amplifier assembly.
If the airflow volume is low or the blower speed cannot be changed, the following factors may be the cause.
| Symptom | Factor |
|---|---|
| Airflow volume cannot be changed | ·
Air conditioning amplifier assembly malfunction ·
Blower motor with fan sub-assembly malfunction ·
Harness or connector |
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
Perform the Active Test according to the display on the GTS.
