A/c help!!!!

[1980mws]

I have a 1998 Grand Prix GT with automatic dual climate control. This my problem. I have cold air coming from the far passenger vent and passenger middle vent, not as much cold air coming from the two vents in the middle of the dash toward the driver and hardly any airflow at all on the far left vent. Both blend door actuators

​

are new and the A/C Vacuum Control Valve is new. Any help would be appreciated. I am stumped!!!

defective blend door actuator?

are you sure you installed the blend door motor correctly?

 

[ericspecullaas]

best bet your drivers blender door is not working time to hit the jy to replace it

 

[Scottydoggs]

take the blend door actuator off and work the knob by hand, if it blows cold when turned bad actuator.

He said both were new so one maybe defective and needs to return/warranty it

 

[Scottydoggs]

new means nothing. kinda sucks dont it

 

[1980mws]

I can watch the actuator move. I can turn the door by hand and still the same. Could it be a vacuum hose somewhere?

its low on r what ever its called these day then.

when low the driver side will blow warmer then the pass side.

 

[HighOctaneRacing]

R134a. And yea, my GP did this when low and it doesn't even have the dual zone.

 

[1980mws]

Yes they were the correct parts.

Rev engine while idling. Not much like 2500 rpms if other vent temps start to drop then low on freon. Also u can put fan on lowest setting if the other vents start to cool that's a sign of low freon. I've had 2 w body cars and both have had valve leaks. Hi and low side.

 

[FordMan77]

Funny you mention valve leaks. I had one on the low side. Never had any other car have this issue before.

 

[1980mws]

I checked the R134a level and it is good. Any other ideas?

 

[paedbo]

When you say you checked it. what was the ambient temperature at the time of the test and what was the low and high side pressure?

 

[1980mws]

The only way I have to check the pressure is the recharge kit with an inline gauge. I may have to take it somewhere with the correct equipment and have the pressures checked.
