Mode Control Actuator: Inspection

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2022 Genesis GV70. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Turn the ignition switch OFF.
  2. Disconnect the mode control actuator connector.
  3. Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the defrost mode when connecting 12V to terminal 7 and grounding terminal 3.

    Verify that the mode control actuator operates to the vent mode when connected in reverse.

  4. Connect the mode control actuator connector.
  5. Turn the ignition switch ON.
  6. Check the voltage between terminal 5 and 4.
    Door Position Voltage (V) Error detecting
    VENT 0.3 ± 0.15V Low voltage: 0.1V or less
    High voltage: 4.9V or more
    DEFROST 4.7 ± 0.15V

    * It will feedback the current position of the actuator to controls.

  7. If the measured voltage is not within specification, substitute with a known-good mode control actuator and check for proper operation.
  8. Replace the mode control actuator if it is proved that there is a problem with it.
