try turning it on, make sure its set to the coldest and hit the recirculate button and then turn it back off, that should stop the hot air coming in. you could also do the a/c diagnostic and see what error codes pop up. there is a tutorial in the tut/diy section.

Sorry I think I used the wrong word. Its the old school analog aircon - with the levers. I can't do a diagnostic. And I tried what you said with no success

hi buddy you will probably find that your system is very low on a/c gas or have none at all this will stop unit from coming on as there is a low pressure switch in the system to stop the compressor turning on and siezing up through no gas or low gas level and no oil circulating since oil is carried by the gas in an a/c system need to get gas levels checked first by an expert and then go from there let me know how you get on .......By the way was in automotive airconditioning for 5 years so i have nt missed much ... let me know...........................

Its hard for the fastners to slip on the mechanical control arms. I would say your gas system has developed a leak. Take it to aircon shop and get them to pressurise the system with coloured die to show u leak

also check aircon fuses

Sorry guys, I kinda havn't had computer access for a few days. Onto the situation at hand -

Before taking it into the shop I decided to have a play with the system, just your basic schoolboy 'lets play with knobs and see what happens'. After a little while I ended up making the system fix itself. Now all it does is blow cold air on full.

I'm assuming now that is it actually the control arms... anyone to second that opinion? And how do I fix it???

Pull off your entire dash, you should see some rods somewhere down the side of the AC and a little link that fastens to it. Tighten that

Or its your blend servo motor, do a search in the forums for it but you'll have to also dismantle the dash

    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as 
    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy
