The vent on my pioneer 3 air intake no longer moves according to the thermostat control. I don't even hear the motor try to move it. It opened when I pushed the button but now when the temperature gets up to the setpoint it won't close the air intake. Is there a way to close it and open it via the motor to test the motor? What could be the cause of this?
