DTC B1443/43 Air Outlet Damper Control Servo Motor Circuit: Description
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Lexus IS F. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The mode damper servo sends pulse signals to inform the A/C amplifier of the damper position The A/C amplifier activates the motor (normal, reverse) based on the signals to move the mode damper to any position, which controls the air outlet switching.
The A/C amplifier communicates with the servo through a communication/driver IC and wiring assembly called the air conditioning harness
HINT:
Confirm that no mechanical problem is present because this diagnostic code can be output when either a damper link or the damper is mechanically locked.
