ey all,

thanx guys

either the motor drive to shut the valve is stuffed or the valve is stuck, With mine I turned the temp up & down for about a week when it did the same, works fine now and I do it every now and then just to keep it loose.

got the same problem, i thought it might b cause i havent got a aircon in mine anymore so was going to see about getting it blocked up by my mechanic but will definatley turn it up and down first to try close the vent.

if you still got the aircon then my first guess was wrong lol, if so let me know thanks.

peace

got it in my 33 aswell, and my thermostat seems to be out. I can stop air coming through it yough if you press the button which changes the way the air comes in the cabin (the butting with the bent arrow in a car, next to the A/C button) if you have it so the light is on I found it at least stopped the air from coming in.

I have noticed this in alot of cars when the temp is left at the same position for ages.

Turn your aircon on, set it to the coldest temp, turn it off...

The vents open/close somewhere in the middle, 22 degrees is the changeover point I think...

That should fix your problem, otherwise you have a serious malfunction...

just press the recycle button. if everything is off its automatically set to have fresh air come through. at least thats how i stopped mine.

cant stop it mate. windows up, passing air passes thru the vent to your feet. if u have a window open, more air comes in. all u can do is push the RECIRC button, or redirect the air flow

[sh@un]

just get in the habit of hitting the 'recirc' button every time you start the car

why oh why couldn't 'recirc' have been the default setting, Nissan?

Take it to a air con place to get it fixed.

[antonirabic]

i get that all the time hot air .... u can stop it from going hot air by pressing mode and turning the temp down and then pressing OFF it then turns off and goes back to ur feet but this time its cold air...
