23 - Body/Exterior/GRILLE, Active Shutter/Operation

OPERATION

The AGS system is controlled by the powertrain control module (PCM) over a dedicated network LIN bus. When the ambient air and engine coolant temperatures are below a specified threshold, airflow across the radiator is not required. When airflow across the radiator is not required and vehicle speeds reach a calibrated threshold, the PCM will command the shutter vanes to close.
It'd be interesting to see if any tuners can recalibrate the speed threshold, but simpler to just rig an override switch.
