Power Transistor HVAC: Testing and Inspection

Power Transistor Circuit
The air conditioning control assembly controls the blower speed by varying the voltage at terminal BLW which applies the base current to the power transistor.
The air conditioning control assembly also monitors the power transistor collector voltage at terminal, VM to control blower air volume precisely.
