Dual-Zone Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (EATC): Notes

The HVAC module analyzes input from the following major sources:

• Temperature, airflow direction, blower, A/C and RECIRC selection (made by the vehicle occupants)
• In-vehicle temperature sensor
• Ambient temperature sensor
• Solar radiation sensor
• Vehicle speed
• Engine coolant temperature

Using these inputs, the HVAC module determines the correct conditions for the following outputs:

• A/C compressor operation
• Blower speed
• RH and LH temperature blend door positions
• Airflow mode door positions
• Air inlet mode door position
