- the blower motor speed is automatically controlled through the blower motor speed control when it receives a PWM signal from the HVAC control module based on the temperature setting, but can be manually adjusted if desired.
- the HVAC control module controls the air inlet door to recirculate, partially recirculate or open to the fresh air position depending on the in-car temperature and humidity sensor inputs.
