Condition
Some customers may comment on one or more of the following conditions:
An intermittent ticking/clicking noise from the rear Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) system.
Unable to control rear HVAC system temperature.
Unable to change rear HVAC system modes.
Technicians may find that Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) B0434 and/or B3764 have been set.
Cause
These conditions may be caused by HVAC actuators that hunt for the correct position. This cycling may cause a clicking or ticking noise.
An overtravel of the HVAC system control doors may cause one or more of the above system conditions. If an overtravel occurs, a DTC will be set, and
the door will go to a preset default position.
When a system door defaults, that door will stay at the default position until the DTC is cleared. Clearing the DTC will allow the door to operate
properly until the overtravel condition reoccurs. The table lists the DTCs that may have been set and the door that is associated with that code.
Correction
Technicians are to replace the auxiliary (rear) HVAC control module with the part number listed in the table. Refer to the Auxiliary Heater and Air
Conditioning Control Module Replacement procedure in SI for more information. This module contains a new calibration to compensate for the actuator
overtravel condition and the hunting/clicking noises. The new calibration effectively eliminates DTCs B0434 and B3764. The new control module also
eliminates the default position of the doors associated with the DTC. The new control module will allow door travel from counts 0 to 255 without setting
a DTC or defaulting the door.
