Cool Box Control Motor Test

  1. Disconnect the 7P connector from the cool box control motor.
    NOTE: Incorrectly applying power and ground to the cool box control motor will damage it. Follow the instructions carefully.
  2. Connect battery power to terminal No. 7 of the cool box control motor, and ground either terminal No. 1 or terminal No. 3. The motor should run smoothly to the open position (terminal No. 1 connected to ground), or the shut position (terminal No. 3 connected to ground). Disconnect battery power immediately when the motor stops running.

    • If the linkage and door move smoothly, replace the cool box control motor (see COOL BOX CONTROL MOTOR REPLACEMENT  ).
    • If the linkage or door sticks or binds, repair them as needed.
