The actuator contains a motor that changes intake door position and a potentiometer that monitors position of the door. When the driver changes the air intake switch, the ECU operates intake door motor to turn the intake door to the intended position. (in the FRESH mode, the intake door is closed. In REC mode, the intake door is opened) During operation the potentiometer delivers an intake door position to the A/C ECU.
DTC B1208 sets if the Intake Actuator Sensor signal is at or below 0.1V for 0.3 seconds.
