Ac problem- 98stx
Ac problem- 98stx
My air works. It works real good, when it works. BUT... when I turn the temp. control to hot I get full hot. If I change it to cold, I still get full hot. If I leave the temp. control on full cold, and start the truck the next day, I will still get full heat most times. But usually on the second day of not touching the temp. control I will get nice cold air! It will work forever, until I need I heat... then the process starts all over again. Weird.... any suggestions?
Definitely sounds like an air distribution problem. To be sure, next time that you get nothing but heat, crank your AC on the max position, pop you hood and grab the
accumulator to see if it's cold. If it isn't cold, you have an ac problem.
If it is cold, you have an air distribution problem.
Air distribution problems could result from: a binding blend door,
sticking blend door actuator, or the switch itself.
My experiences have had more blend door issues than actuators or switches.
I think the only way you are going to find the exact problem would be to check the
functionality of the switch and the actuator. You may need to remove the actuator and see if the blend door has a crack where the actuator is splined into the door.
