  6. Check the voltage between terminals 6 and 5. Specification
    Door Position Voltage (V) Fault Detection
    Cooling 3,8 ± 0,15 Low voltage: 0.1 V or less
    Heating 1,2 ± 0,15 High voltage: 4.9 V or more

    It will report the current actuator position to the controls.
  7. If the measured voltage does not meet the specification, replace the console temperature actuator with a genuine part and check for proper operation.
  8. Replace the console temperature control actuator if it is determined to be faulty.
