Obstruction that prevents the auxiliary air temperature door from operating within its full range of motion. Missing seals to the auxiliary air temperature actuator door. Misaligned seals to the auxiliary air temperature actuator door. Did you find and correct the condition? If so, go to step  30. If not, check for intermittent and poor connections.
  10. Select OFF on the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly. Adjust the front auxiliary air temperature switch. Does the auxiliary air temperature actuator drive shaft rotate at all? If so, go to next step. If not, go to step  16.
  11. Check the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly rear auxiliary temperature door control circuit for an open, high resistance, a short to ground or short to voltage. Did you find and correct the condition? If so, go to step  30. If not, go to next step.
    12. NOTE: The circuit that is to be tested runs between the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly and the auxiliary HVAC control processor. The circuit is the position signal from the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly for the auxiliary air temperature actuator. The circuit only provides a reference when the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly is in the REAR CNTL position.
    NOTE: The rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly connector must be connected to correctly perform test.
  12. Turn ignition on. Measure the voltage from the auxiliary air temperature door position signal circuit of the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly to ground. Adjust the rear auxiliary air temperature switch. Does the voltage change and measure within zero-12 Volts? If so, go to step  25. If not, go to step  23.
  13. Check the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly ignition 3 voltage circuit for an open or a high resistance. Did you find and correct the condition? If so, go to step  30. If not, go to next step.
  14. Check the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly air temperature door position signal circuit for an open, high resistance, a short to ground or short to voltage. Did you find and correct the condition? If so, go to step  30. If not, go to next step.
    15. NOTE: The circuit that is to be tested runs between the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly and the auxiliary HVAC control processor. The circuit is the position signal from the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly for the auxiliary air temperature actuator. The circuit only provides a reference when the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly is in any other position than REAR CNTL position.
    NOTE: The front auxiliary HVAC control assembly connector must be connected to correctly perform test.
  15. Turn ignition on. Measure the voltage from the air temperature door position signal circuit of the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly to ground. Adjust the front auxiliary air temperature switch. Does the voltage change and measure within zero-12 Volts? If so, go to step  25. If not, go to step  24.
