Removing and installing air recirculation flap control motor V113 - automatically controlled air conditioner — AUDI

Removing and installing
air recirculation flap control motor
V113
- automatically controlled air conditioner
Note
The colour coding of the connecting element on the control motor is being gradually discontinued from 10.2013 onwards (for both the factory-fitted connecting elements and the replacement connecting elements). In addition, the replacement connecting elements for the control motors are no longer pre-assembled
Chapter
and
Electronic parts catalogue
.
The control motors and the corresponding connecting elements are different. However, in some cases the differences are so small that they cannot always be identified at first glance. If a version other than the intended control motor or connecting element is installed, this usually leads to problems which only show up during the subsequent basic setting

Caution
Problems occur with the operation of the air conditioner (heater) if incorrect component versions have been installed.
The different control motor versions can only be distinguished from the outside by their part numbers.
If possible, only remove a control motor if the new component is available for installation.
Before installing a control motor, check carefully to ensure that the correct version is being installed.
If possible, only dispose of the removed components once you have checked that the newly installed components function correctly.
