Blower Motor Switch: Description and Operation

Rear Blower Motor Switch:

The rear blower motor is controlled by a rotary-type blower motor switch, mounted in the rear center console. The rear blower motor switch allows the selection of rear blower motor speeds, Auto and an Off position when the front A/C-heater control is set to the Rear position, otherwise the front A/C-heater control operates both the front and rear blower motors.

When the front A/C-heater control display for the automatic temperature control (ATC) heating-A/C system reads REAR AUTO or when the rear blower fan is off, the switch located in the center console between the second row seats is not functional. When the front A/C-heater control display reads REAR, only the rear seat occupants control the rear blower fan speed from the rear switch. When in the Rear mode, the rear occupants can set the rear switch to any fan speed including OFF or AUTO. While in the Auto position, the rear fan speed will be automatically controlled.
