Any Auto-sparkies here? Air-con probs

[raasclaat]

Is anyone an auto sparkie here or good with aircon?

Since buying my r32 gtst i have had the problem that my aircon doesnt go cold or hot. It doesnt respond when you change the temperature.

I did the diagnostics, it appears all of the sensors work well, so im not sure what it is. (i am told its the aircon-thermo??)

An after hours cashie job to fix this would be cool if anyone can do it

If it constantly blows warm air, then check the air intake pipe behind the console panel is still connected. It may be like the S13's in that manner. Easy job. Without this hose connected to suck air from the cabin properly, the climate control and A/C doesn't work right.

hey thanks - found that pipe last night and it seemed to make it work this morning.

by the time i got to work it was hot, then it responded when i turned it to cold

where exactly is this pipe u are talking about? where on a skyline?

[Guest F U Z]

The pipe i think from memory is located behind the console panel that surrounds your radio, climate control controls etc. It will plug up to the small vent at the front.

Sorry, i am an S13 techie... my brother has a skyline but i can't remember the exact location... i am sure raasclaat will point you in the right direction.

On the R33 it is on the drivers left hand side.

There is a small vent in the dash around/above the dimmer switch ( If I can remember correctly).
