Abstract
An automotive air-conditioner has a casing forming an air passage through which an air passes and a film damper slidably disposed in the casing in such a manner to face to the air passage. The film damper having openings opens and closes the air passage. Holes are disposed on the film damper for indicating a position of the opening: Photointerrupters are disposed on the casing to detect the holes and output a present position signal that shows a present position of the film damper. A mode setting portion outputs a target position signal that shows a target position of the film damper. A microcomputer compares the present position signal with the target position signal, so that the microcomputer controls the film damper to stop at the target position.
