Dual Automatic Temperature Control (DATC) Module
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Lincoln LS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The dual automatic temperature control (DATC) module is on the SCP communication network and the universal asynchronous transmitter-receiver (UART)-based protocal (UBP) communications network. The DATC module uses the SCP network to communicate with the diagnostic tool and other modules. The UBP network is used by the DATC module for communication with the driver climate control seat module. The DATC module controls automatic climate functions that maintain the vehicle interior temperature at a constant setting. For additional information, refer to CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM .
