QuestionMornin' Kevin-
I talked to u last week about my a/c and you thought it sounded like the re-circ and blend door.(I live in Murphy,NC.)
I just had a mechanic check it out this am and everything is working fine, the doors are moving, blower motor working and there is cold and hot air. He said there is obviously a blockage somewhere and that he needs to pull off the dash to find it.($600)
Have u ever run across this problem and do u have any idea of where the blockage could occur? All of the vents are blocked, very faint air flow is coming out.
Thanks again for your expertise.
Linda
Answerfirst of all there is no way he can tell if the door are moving ne way with out taking apart the dash and hvac housing. The DOORS AND REC ASSEMBLY ARE IN CASED in plastic and he can not see in there to see if the doors are moving. This is what U can do remove the 3 screws to the blower motor and stick your hand up there and feel if there is a door that is sitting ontop of where the blower motor was. U will be able to move it around. TO bad U live in NC or i could do this stuff for ya. Oh one more thing u can also do this.
if i am right u will get codes for rec door range to large.
ENTERING THE AZC SELF-DIAGNOSTIC MODE
To enter the AZC self-diagnostic mode, perform the following:
Depress the A/C and Recirc buttons at the same time and hold. Rotate the left temperature control knob clockwise (CW) one detent.
If you continue to hold the A/C and Recirc buttons depressed, the AZC control module will perform a Segment Test of the vacuum fluorescent (VF) display. In the Segment Test you should see all of the display segments illuminate as long as both buttons are held. If a display segment fails to illuminate, the vacuum fluorescent display is faulty and the heater-A/C control must be replaced.
After viewing the Segment Test, release the A/C and Recirc buttons and the display will clear momentarily. If a 0 is displayed, then no faults are set in the system. Should there be any faults, either "current" or "historical", all fault codes will be displayed in ascending numerical sequence (note no effort is made to display fault codes in chronological order) Each fault code is displayed for one second before the next code is displayed. Once all fault codes have been displayed, the system will then repeat the fault code numbers. This will continue until the left side set temperature control is moved at least one detent position in the CW direction or the ignition is turned "OFF".
FAULT CODE TESTS
Fault codes are two-digit numbers that identify a circuit that is malfunctioning. There are two different kinds of fault codes.
Current Fault Codes - Current means the fault is present right now. There are two types of current faults: input faults, and system faults.
Historical Fault Codes - Historical or stored means that the fault occurred previously, but is not present right now. A majority of historical fault codes are caused by intermittent wire harness or wire harness connector problems.
CURRENT FAULT CODES
Input faults 01 = IR thermister circuit open
02 = IR thermister circuit shorted
