Air Distribution Control - Dual Zone Automatic System
Air distribution into the cabin is controlled automatically by the ATC module unless any manual overrides have been requested. Manual overrides can be made by pressing the appropriate air distribution momentary switch on the control panel. If a manual override has been requested, the 'AUTO' LED located in the center of the blower motor rotary controller will extinguish.
Air distribution can be returned to automatic control by pressing the 'AUTO' switch located in the center of the blower motor rotary controller. This will illuminate the 'AUTO' LED and allow the ATC module to control air distribution in line with its 'comfort' algorithm
Air distribution is controlled by 2 air distribution doors. The ATC module controls the position of the air distribution doors by providing LIN bus messages to the door stepper motors. Hall effect sensors located within the stepper motors inform the ATC module that movement of the stepper motors is taking place.
