Chevrolet Trax: Actuator recalibration

HVAC Control Module Replacement

When replacing or disconnecting the HVAC control module, it will be necessary to perform a recalibration process. When installing or reconnecting the HVAC control module, be sure to perform the following: Preferred Method (with Scan Tool)

NOTE: Do not adjust any controls on the HVAC control module while the HVAC control module is self-calibrating. If interrupted, improper HVAC performance will result.

  1. Ignition OFF.
  2. Disconnect the scan tool.
  3. Install/connect the HVAC control module.
  4. Connect all previously disconnected components.
  5. Start the vehicle.
  6. With the scan tool, initiate the HVAC Actuators Learn feature of the HVAC control module Special Functions menu.
  7. Operate system and verify that no DTCs have set as current DTCs.
  8. If DTC B101E 4B is set after attempting the actuator recalibration procedure, perform the following:

  1. Verify which actuator does not have a scan tool learn status parameter status of complete.
  2. Verify the unlearned actuator is physically rotating - A common cause of DTC B101E 4B is an actuator that is electrically OK but fails to physically rotate (e.g. stripped gears).
  3. If the unlearned actuator is not physically rotating, replace the actuator, otherwise replace the HVAC control module.

Alternate Method (without Scan Tool)

NOTE: Do not adjust any controls on the HVAC control module while the HVAC control module is self-calibrating. If interrupted, improper HVAC performance will result.

  1. Clear all DTCs.
  2. Ignition OFF.
  3. Install/connect the HVAC control module.
  4. Connect all previously disconnected components.
  5. Remove the HVAC control module fuse for a minimum of 10 s.
  6. Install the HVAC control module fuse.
  7. Start the vehicle.
  8. Wait 40 s for the HVAC control module to self-calibrate.

Actuator Replacement

When replacing an HVAC actuator it will be necessary to allow the HVAC control module to perform a recalibration process. When installing an HVAC actuator be sure to perform one of the following: Preferred Method (with Scan Tool)

NOTE: Do not adjust any controls on the HVAC control module while the HVAC control module is self-calibrating. If interrupted, improper HVAC performance will result.

  1. Clear all DTCs.
  2. Ignition OFF.
  3. Install the HVAC actuator.
  4. Connect all previously disconnected components.
  5. Start the vehicle.
  6. With the scan tool, initiate the HVAC Actuators Relearn feature of the HVAC control module Special Functions menu.
  7. Operate system and verify that no DTCs have set as current DTCs.
  8. If DTC B101E 4B is set after attempting the actuator recalibration procedure, perform the following:

  1. Verify which actuator does not have a scan tool learn status parameter status of complete.
  2. Verify the unlearned actuator is physically rotating - A common cause of DTC B101E 4B is an actuator that is electrically OK but fails to physically rotate (e.g. stripped gears).
  3. If the unlearned actuator is not physically rotating, replace the actuator, otherwise replace the HVAC control module.
