Mazda CX-5 Service & Repair Manual: Resistor [Manual Air Conditioner]
Purpose
-
The resistor controls the blower motor rotation speed.
Function
-
The resistor controls the supply voltage to the blower motor according to the fan switch operation, and adjusts the fan rotation speed (airflow volume).
Construction
-
The resistor is installed to the A/C unit.
-
A thin, card-type resistor has been adopted for weight reduction.
Operation
1. When the fan switch speed is set at 1, the resistor internal resistance increases and the blower motor applied voltage decreases. Therefore, the blower motor rotation speed decreases.
2. The resistor internal resistance decreases as the voltage applied to the blower motor by the fan switch increases in speed to 2, 3, and 4. Therefore, the blower motor rotation speed increases.
Fail-safe
-
Function not equipped.

Electric Power Steering (Eps) Control Module
Purpose/ Function
The EPS control module (CM) calculates the optimum assist current based on
the steering torque signal from the torque sensor installed to the steering
column and the vehicle speed signal sent via CAN transmission from the PCM.
The EPS CM controls the following ...
