Fig. 62: Identifying Evaporator Housing Function - Operating Condition Blend Air Ducting 
(Warm/Cold) Closed-Loop Operation
 

Operating condition: Blend air (warm/cold) Function  

In the blend air operating status, the fresh air (A) is drawn in by the blower (5) into the evaporator housing and 
routed through the dust filter (3). The air purified by the dust filter (3) is then routed through the evaporator (2) 
and dried there. Some of the dried, cold and cleaned air (B) is routed through the heat exchanger (1) and some is 
routed around the heat exchanger (1). This air conduction is controlled via the central setting of the blending air 
flaps (6). 

The air (B), which has been dried, cooled and cleaned by the heat exchanger (1) is heated up again. After 
passing through the blending air flaps (6) this heated air (C) is mixed up to form blend air (D) with the dried, 
cooled and cleaned air, which was routed around the heat exchanger (1). This blend air (D) is then routed via 
the air outlets (E, F, M and S) into the passenger compartment. The recirculated air flap (4) is closed. 

Operating condition: Air ducting "recirculation air" in cooling mode

Operating condition: Cooling down "recirculation air" Function  

In the cooling mode with recirculating air the blower (5) draws the recirculated air (A) from the passenger 
compartment over the opened recirculated air flaps (4) into the evaporator housing and routes it through the dust 
cleaner (3). The air purified by the dust filter (3) is then routed through the evaporator (2) and dried there. The 
fresh air (B), which has been dried, cooled and cleaned, is subsequently routed around the heat exchanger (1). 
This air conduction is controlled via the setting of the blending air flap (6). 

The dried, cooled and cleaned air (B) is routed directly into the passenger compartment via the air outlets (E, F, 
M and S). The supply of fresh air is cut off by the recirculated air flap (4). 

EVAPORATOR HOUSING, TASK - GF83.30-P-2104-04GH 

The evaporator housing houses the following components: 

Air ducting flaps  

Dust filter  

Blower  

Series resistor group  

Evaporator  

Heating system heat exchanger  

Expansion valve

Blending air flap actuator  

Recirculated air flap actuator motor  

Electric heater booster (for engine 612.963 only) and therefore forms a complete unit.  

The evaporator housing distributes the air that is required to ventilate the vehicle to the relevant air ducts and 
vents depending on the required interior temperature. 

The air ducting depends on various operating conditions such as: 

Heating mode  

Cooling mode  

Blend air mode (cold/warm)  

Cooling air mode with recirculated air  

FRESH AIR/RECIRCULATED AIR FLAP ACTUATOR MOTOR, POSITION - GF83.30-P-2105-01GC 

The fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor (M16/7) is located on the A/C housing between the two fresh 
air/recirculated air flaps.

FRESH AIR/RECIRCULATED AIR FLAP ACTUATOR MOTOR, POSITION - GF83.30-P-2105-01GH 

The fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor (M39) is located at the side of the air intake housing on the 
evaporator housing.

FRESH AIR/RECIRCULATED AIR FLAP ACTUATOR MOTOR, FUNCTION - GF83.30-P-2105-02GH 

Function  

The fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor (M39) is controlled via the recirculation air switch (

 ) and 

when the temperature selector switch is set to max. cooling output in the control module (S98). 

Recirculated air mode (100 % recirculated air)  

In the recirculated air mode the supply of fresh air is closed by the fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor 
(M39) and simultaneously the recirculated air supply opened without any time limit. 

Fresh air mode (100 % fresh air)  

In the fresh air mode the supply of fresh air is opened by the fresh air/ recirculated air flap actuator motor (M39) 
and simultaneously the recirculated air supply closed without any time limit. 

Auxiliary function at air conditioning (TAC)  

When, in the cooling mode, the temperature selector wheel is set to max. cooling (position indented blue) then 
at the same time the fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor (M39) is controlled and switched to 
recirculation air without time limit. 

FRESH AIR/RECIRCULATED AIR FLAP ACTUATOR, FUNCTION - GF83.30-P-2105-02GI 

Function  

Pressing the recirculating air push-button (

 ) on the AAC push-button control module (N22) actuates the 

fresh air/recirculated air flap actuator motor (M2/5) via the air conditioner bus. 

In recirculation mode, the recirculation air supply is closed off by the fresh air/recirculated air flap. 

In fresh air mode, the fresh air supply is opened by the fresh air/ recirculated air flap.
