      Result

      Result  Proceed to
      All damper servo motors are not operated A
      Any damper servo motor is not operated B
      All damper servo motors are operated C

    Result: 

    REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING HARNESS ASSEMBLY 

    Refer to DISASSEMBLY [08/2020 - ]

    Result: 

    REPLACE AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY 

    Refer to REMOVAL [11/2018 - ]

    Result: 

    See step  2

  2. CHECK AIR CONDITIONING AMPLIFIER ASSEMBLY (POWER SOURCE CIRCUIT) 
    1. Disconnect the air conditioning amplifier assembly connector.
