The air mix actuator(Temperature Actuator) is located at heater unit. It contains temp motor that changes temp door position and potentiometer that monitors position of temp door.The air mix actuator regulates the temperature by the procedure as follows. Signal from control unit adjusts position of temp door by operating temp motor and then temperature will be regulated by the hot/cold air ratio decided by position of temp door. In operation, potentiometer delivers temp door position transformed into voltage value to A/C ECU.
The Air conditioner Control Module sets DTC B2415 if passenger air mix actuator has not been moved to the mode,where air condition control module controls, within 40 seconds.
