A/C - Defaults To Defrost Mode/Poor Control

Bulletin No.: 04-01-38-008

Date: June 17, 2004

TECHNICAL
Subject:
HVAC System Cannot be Controlled or Defaults to Defrost Mode (Repair HVAC Actuator Harness)

Models:
2003-2005 Cadillac Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT
2003-2005 Chevrolet Avalanche, Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe
2003-2005 GMC Sierra, Yukon, Yukon XL

Condition
^ Some customers may comment that they cannot control the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air conditioning) system. Others may comment that the HVAC system defaults to the Defrost mode.

^ Technicians may find that the following diagnostic trouble codes have set:

^ B0229 Recirculation Actuator

^ B0414 Left Air Temperature Actuator

^ B0424 Right Air Temperature Actuator

^ B3770 Mode Actuator Cause

The HVAC actuator harness may contact a sharp edge on the instrument panel support brace, causing a rub through condition and a ground out of the actuator control and/or feedback circuits.

Correction

Technicians are to inspect the HVAC actuator harness for contact with the instrument panel support brace. Repair any damage to the actuator harness wiring and install protective plastic conduit over the harness. Install friction tape over the sharp edge of the instrument panel brace. Clear the diagnostic trouble codes and verify proper HVAC system operation.
