Auxiliary HVAC Control Module
The auxiliary HVAC control module is a GMLAN device that interfaces between the operator, the front HVAC control module, and the auxiliary HVAC system to maintain air temperature and air distribution settings. Battery power, ground, and LED dimming are supplied to the rear HVAC control module. The front HVAC control module monitors the position of the rear air temperature actuator and the rear mode actuator. The front HVAC module will move the actuators to the proper position when it receives a request from the rear HVAC control module on which position to place the actuator. The rear HVAC control module is powered ON or OFF through GMLAN communication of vehicle power-mode.
The rear control can be turned ON and OFF by pressing the AUX button on the front HVAC control module. The rear control can also be turned ON by pressing any rocker button on the control head. Pressing the fan blower rocker button down will eventually turn off the control head.
