If your climate control only has two settings: HEAT and MAX A/C then the chances are this fix will work for you. Step 1: Remove the glove box to gain access to the plenum. There is a release on the left hand side of the glove box. Step 2: Locate the actuator. The actuator is a flat white box that sits on 4 clip posts on the top left of the plenum. It has a wiring harness coming out of the front. Step 3: Remove the actuator. Use a flat head screwdriver to pry up the actuator. Pry up the front first and then put the screwdriver under it to pop up the back. (Note: I unplugged the wiring harness when I removed mine. If you also unplugged the wiring harness you will need to plug it back in before doing step 4). Step 4: On the bottom of the actuator there is a ā€œDā€ shaped pin. Turn on the ignition and move the heater control on the dash. You should see the pin rotate (wiring harness must be attached!). If the pin does not rotate then you have a different problem (bad actuator, terminals corroded, etc). If the actuator does move, set the heater control to full heat and turn the blower on high. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. It moves the actuator to the correct position for the fix.

Full-auto Air Conditioner 1. Connect battery positive voltage to terminal E or F and ground to terminal F or E of the airflow mode actuator. 2. Verify that the airflow mode actuator operates as shown. If not as specified, replace the airflow mode actuator. 3. Verify that the resistance between the terminals of the airflow mode actuator is as shown in the graph. If not as specified, replace the airflow mode actuator. Manual Air Conditioner Operating inspection 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Turn the fan switch to OFF. Turn the mode dial to VENT. Turn the ignition switch to ON position, (engine ON) Turn the fan switch 4th position. Turn the mode dial from VENT to DEFROSTER. 6. Verify that the airflow mode actuator moves smoothly. If not as specified, inspect the airflow mode main link and sub link for clogging and deformity. If the actuator cannot move at all, go to voltage inspection. Voltage inspection 1. Disconnect the airflow mode actuator connector. 2. Turn the ignition switch to ON position, (engine OFF) 3. Verify that the voltage between the terminals of airflow mode actuator (harness-side) is as shown in the table. If not as specified, perform the harness inspection and mode switch inspection. (See CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT INSPECTION, Manual Air Conditioner.) If as specified, replace the airflow mode actuator.

high/erratic idle and/or the MIL light on. In some cases, vacuum leak noise may be heard as well. There may be poor contact or loss of contact at various main ground points or electrical connections. Power steering pressure switch may be shorted with debris. Inlet manifold gasket may be leaking. Broadcast code and calibration part number may need to be updated. To correct this condition, follow the procedures outlined in this bulletin to determine proper diagnosing, inspection and correction of ground contact points for proper electrical contact, power steering pressure switch cleaning or replacement and power steering system flush, replacement of inlet manifold gasket, and/or PCM reprogramming. SERVICE PROCEDURE Please refer to the appropriate workshop manual for the correct diagnosing procedure and/or follow the service procedures outlined in this bulletin for the vehicle being serviced. 1. Inspect main ground points (refer to SB99-04-S001 for more information). P6 ground point-body [on the passenger side of engine compartment, between the battery and cruise control actuator (if equipped)]. (Figure Fig. 1 ) P10 ground point-engine (at the alternator bracket). (Figure Fig. 2 ) The 1998, 1999 or 2000 Rodeo/Amigo Electrical Troubleshooting Manual can assist in locating the vehicle ground distribution (i.e., ground contact points). Perform a voltage drop test at the main ground points. If the voltage drop test fails, then inspect and clean both the bolt and
