oh boy (vent problem)

riddlee josh · August 5th, 2008, 01:16 PM

well i have sucessfully got my ac knobs moved to the bottom but when i turned it on all it will do is blow air out of the defrost vents. no matter what setting i have it on it blows through the defrost vents. what could be the prob?

GreenFaleen · August 5th, 2008, 01:31 PM

you dont have the switch hooked up to the vent doors

riddlee josh · August 5th, 2008, 02:12 PM

what do you mean? please explain im stupid

JMack · August 5th, 2008, 02:56 PM

I mentioned this possible problem in the other post...

there are vac lines and cables attatched to the HVAC panel. it's not just knobs and electrical, when you move it, it causes problems with the control of the vents and heat a/c.

G/L with this, I don't think that I can help any more than that...

GreenFaleen · August 5th, 2008, 08:16 PM

there are doors that block off air flow to certain vents so it will blow out of the others some are mechanical some use an electrical signal to tell the doors to close default is defrost so yours just arent connected right

V6 Stalker · August 5th, 2008, 11:21 PM

pop out your vents a take a look... u will see is something isn't right.

My friend had the same problem like a month ago... it was hell for him( i live in phoenix)

120 degrees baby!

riddlee josh · August 5th, 2008, 11:44 PM

yea i almost just left it cause i don't usually use it but if i ever go to sell it i will have to say that the air doesn't work right and i don't want to do that. so i will go through the pain of fixing it

riddlee josh · August 5th, 2008, 11:58 PM

GreenFaleen · August 6th, 2008, 12:17 AM

riddlee josh · August 6th, 2008, 12:22 AM

GreenFaleen · August 6th, 2008, 12:31 AM

thanks, so any luck on the AC?

riddlee josh · August 6th, 2008, 12:41 AM

i didn't have a chance to work on it anymore tonight cause i went to the fair with some friends. but i will hit it first thing in the morning. i hope i get it working.

riddlee josh · August 6th, 2008, 12:35 PM

ok i feel really stupid now because im almost positive this is the prob. i have the upper and lower intake off my car. and of coarse some hoses and vacume lines or whatever. could this be the reason it won't work cause i have some of the ac lines removed?

MWWarlord · August 6th, 2008, 12:44 PM
