Inspection
1.
Ignition "OFF”
2.
Disconnect the connector of mode control actuator.
3.
Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the defrost mode when connecting 12V to the terminal 3and grounding terminal 7.
4.
Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the vent mode when connecting in the reverse.
