Toyota Venza: BUS IC Communication Malfunction (B1497/97)

Toyota Venza Service Manual / Heating / Air Conditioning / Air Conditioning System / BUS IC Communication Malfunction (B1497/97)

DESCRIPTION

The air conditioning harness connects the A/C amplifier and each servo. The A/C amplifier supplies power and sends operation instructions to each servo through the air conditioning harness. Each servo sends the damper position information to the A/C amplifier.

DTC No.	DTC Detection Condition	Trouble Area
B1497/97	Communication line error or open	Air conditioning harness A/C amplifier
