Circuit Description

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 2002 GMC Yukon XL, 2002 GMC Yukon, 2002 Chevrolet Tahoe, 2002 Chevrolet Suburban, and 2002 Chevrolet Avalanche. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The auxiliary air temperature actuator is an electronic device that incorporates a stepper motor and feedback potentiometer. The position of the auxiliary air temperature actuator is based on the auxiliary air temperature door position signal voltage from the potentiometer. The auxiliary HVAC module converts this voltage to a digital signal that can be transmitted over the keyboard display driver (KDD) data bus to the HVAC control module. The HVAC control module contains the logic that controls the operation of the auxiliary air temperature actuator. When the keep alive RAM memory, the battery positive voltage circuit, of the HVAC control module is interrupted, the module will calibrate the actuators. The HVAC control module will perform a travel range comparison of the calculated minimum and maximum extremes of the actuator to the calibrated minimum and maximum range extremes within the HVAC control module. If the calculated range does not equal the calibrated expected range the actuator will be considered not calibrated and the DTC will set. The HVAC control module will also perform a continuous test on the current feedback value. If the feedback value does not equal or fall within the calibrated range the DTC will set.
