Air Flow Flap Positioning Motor

Post by Philws4 » Mon Aug 18, 2008 9:47 pm

Did a scan today and got this strange code come up ( within HVAC ), any ideas where to start looking?

IIRC the motor is on the LHS of the heater assembly, beside the glove box.

Some of these motors are a reall PITA to get to and remove

Hope thats one of the easy ones.

Best thing to do is remove the glovebox, go to output tests on VAG-COM, and see which motor moves when V71 is actuated

Thanks guys for your coments.

What will be the result of this motor not working, because as yet i have not noticed any difference in the way the HVAC system works :?

Either the hot/cold air mixing or air distribution won't work properly - depending on what the flap the motor controls is supposed to do.
