Description

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

Component Parts
Intake door control system components are:
- Unified meter and A/C amp.
- Intake door motor (LCU)
- A/C LAN system (PBR built-in mode door motor, air mix door motor and intake door motor)
- In-vehicle sensor
- Ambient sensor
- Sunload sensor
- Intake sensor




System Operation
The intake door control determines intake door position based on the ambient temperature, the intake air temperature and the in-vehicle temperature. When shifting mode position D/F, when the DEF or OFF switches are pressed, or when A/C switch is OFF, the unified meter and A/C amp. sets the intake door at the FRE position.




LAN System Circuit




Intake Door Control Specification
Intake door position is basically fixed at FRE when FRE indicator lamps of DEF switch and intake switch turn ON, and fixed at REC when REC indicator lamp of intake switch turns ON.

Intake door automatic control selects FRE, 20 - 80% FRE, or REC depending on a target air mix door opening angle, based on in-vehicle temperature, ambient temperature, and sunload.
