A/C Mode - Read Auxiliary HVAC Control Assembly

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2003 GMC Savana Special, 2003 GMC Savana Camper Special, 2003 GMC Savana, 2003 Chevrolet RV Cutaway, and 2003 Chevrolet Cutaway. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The auxiliary temperature switch in the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly allows the rear seat passengers to adjust the temperature in the rear of the vehicle. Power is provided to the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly, auxiliary HVAC control processor and the auxiliary air temperature actuator from the IP fuse block on the ignition 3 voltage circuit.

To activate the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly, the front auxiliary HVAC control assembly must be placed in the REAR CNTL position. Ignition 3 voltage is sent to the auxiliary HVAC control processor. When the switch is placed in the REAR CNTL position, the voltage is grounded through the auxiliary blower motor switch control, front auxiliary HVAC control assembly and the ground circuit to allow the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly to operate the auxiliary temperature actuator. Voltage delivered to the rear auxiliary HVAC control assembly on the ignition 3 voltage circuit is sent to a varied resistor. Based on the placement of the temperature switch, a varied voltage is sent to the auxiliary air temperature actuator on the auxiliary air temperature door control circuit, and auxiliary HVAC control processor. The auxiliary air temperature actuator positions the temperature door to divert the appropriate amount of air past the heater core in order to achieve the desired temperature.
