SERVICE BULLETIN 87-948, EVAPORATOR ODOR TREATMENT
This Service Bulletin replaces earlier Service Bulletin 87-955 from September 1996, which should be discarded. Odor from evaporator, installation of blower fan control module Under humid conditions the ECC unit can cause an unpleasant odor on start-up, especially when the temperature outside is high. This Odoroften disappears when humidity levels drops. The Odor can be caused by dirt or micro-organisms in the evaporator. A control module can be installed toeliminate the recurrence of the Odor. This starts the blower fan and airs residual dampness out of the evaporator.If the compressor has been running more than 4 minutes and the ignition is then turned off for 50 minutes, the control module starts the blower fan automatically and runs an airing out cycle at max. Blower speed for approximately 5 minutes.
