• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

HVAC modes not working, help me decifer these codes please.

My HVAC isn't responding to my commands when I hit the mode button to cycle through defrost, floor, vent, etc. It just blows mostly out of the defrost and barely out of the vent and flow no matter what mode it's in. All the other functions are working. I'm convinced it's one of those actuators or a vacuum related issue. I looked under the hood and I see nothing out of the ordinary going on with the vaccum lines, however I'm not sure exactly which one I should be looking for. I ran the diagnostics but I have no idea what the numbers should be, maybe someone knows what the heck this stuff means.

Do you have automatic HVAC? sounds like the vacuum/electro switch box located at right a-pillar under the dash.
 
Yes I have the standard gtp climate control hvac thingy. I've been reading that it's probably vacuum related, I want to see if I can get more information on what/ where this vacuum box is. Also, if anybody can see something obvious with the hieroglyphics I posted. I might smoke test it if something doesn't jump out and punch me in the face.
 
Having the same issue. Sucks.. I have a 99 GTP coupe.. The door windows fog up and freeze on bad days........
 
Remove passenger hush panel on bottom of dash under glove box, ahould be 3 7mm holding it on. look up under dash by the kick panel, it's located right bellow the glove box fuse panel. It's shaped like a harmonica, with a wiring connector and a vacuum hose connector. You will probably hear a slight vacuum leak coming from it.

BTW a standard hvac doesn't tell us what you have. Digital, manual, dual heat etc might help.
 

2000 GTP 4dr fully loaded with dual digital climate control.

Quick tutorial video I made for people who don't know what this is. I read about it on the forums. Thanks for watching.

Pretty simple process but a nifty feature to have.

Press and hold both the Driver and Passenger knobs in at the same time for a few seconds until "-00" comes up on the screen. Turn the driverside knob to the desired number and turn the Passenger knob one click to view the data for that position.

To return to normal operation, press the "MODE" button next to the passenger temperature knob.

This is a list of the Trouble Codes displayed by the CJ2 Unit.
A two digit code indicates a current fault while a three digit code indicates a historic fault.

Trouble Code Description
00 No System Fault
01 or 101 Inside Air Temperature Sensor Short
02 or 102 Inside Air Temperature Sensor Open
03 or 103 Ambient Outside Temperature Sensor Short
04 or 104 Ambient Outside Temperature Sensor Open
05 or 105 LH Electric Actuator Open or Short
06 or 106 RH Electric Actuator Open or Short
07 or 107 UART Serial Data Line Fault
08 or 108 Solar Sensor Open
To clear codes from the CJ2 Unit, press the A/C Mode button.

so yeah, I watched the video and read a couple posts and I'm still lost as far as how the "trouble codes" work. Does it mean I have a trouble code of 01 (inside air temp sensor short) for -07 and 05 (LH electric actuator open/short) for -10?

He's another thing that has me boggled, I noticed when it's warmer out (i.e. above freezing) it works just fine. But sure as **** in the morning when it's fricken freezing is when it doesn't work...:th_angry-censored:
