Lexus NX: Climate Control System does not Operate on Passenger Side

Lexus NX Service Manual / Vehicle Interior / Seat / Climate Control Seat System / Climate Control System does not Operate on Passenger Side

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioning control assembly sends operation signals to the air conditioning amplifier assembly via the LIN communication line. The air conditioning amplifier assembly actives the seat blowers according to these signals.

WIRING DIAGRAM

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

NOTICE:

  • The climate control seat system uses the LIN communication system. Inspect the communication function by following How to Proceed with Troubleshooting. Troubleshoot the climate control seat system after confirming that the communication systems are functioning properly.
  • If the auxiliary battery voltage is low, the climate control seat system may not operate. When "High Power Consumption / Partial Limit On AC/Heater Operation" is displayed on the multi-information display in the combination meter assembly, inspect the auxiliary battery, referring to On-vehicle Inspection for the charging system.
