R33 Aircon Help!

[Spook33]

Hi guys after looking at many past posts and taking my dash apart i still can't find what the f@#k is going on>

Symptons

Air con is engaginging pipe going into fire wall goes ice cold

Hot air blows regardless of what temp its on

thought it was the sensor left of the steering wheel as i left off the pipe thing when putting in stereo but i put it back on still nothing

did the air con diag thingy and got error 25 (sunlight senor)

also when i change the temp from hot to cold sometimes (only sometimes just random) i can feel the cold air coming through (stuck my hand down the vent) but its clearly over powered by the hot air!!

is it this blend flap or what ever its called ????

if so where is it??

some one must know how to fix it HELP!!

sounds like it. I think there's a mechanical switch on the heater box? Does your dash make a bunch of clicking noise when changing the temp?

nope! i just don't know what the hell it is

the first time i took the dash off it was fine then after the second time it sh$t it self

maybe a wire is loose ??

do you know where the blend flap/door is located

[RANDY]

Not in particular, but there was a pic of the switch on the heaterbox in the for sale section, and I asked about it in there.

I'll have a quick dig.

"Anyone who has that clicking noise when you start your R33 from behind the dash, the bit you need is shown in the 3rd pick down - black box on top of heater box. "

Oh.. maybe the clicking is BAD? My temps all work though!

But some guy wanted the actuators... might be an idea to look at the pic, and sus out the wiring to the actuators?

"I am after the 2 control actuaters that go on the side of the heater unit if you can give me your details i will call and arange something to get them of your hands, cheers .Andrew "

any one know if you can reset the climate control

[RANDY]

Pretty much disconnect it, or disconnect the battery. In either case, it needs to be for 30 minutes or so. Note the settings that it was on when you turned it off, and when you disconnect and reconnect it, the settings should be back to default. Then it's reset.

cheers mate i'll try it when i get home tonight

Finally !!! found the problem was the blend door after all

where the rod thing connects under the unit had just fallen off ???

don't know how!!

Funny! i spent hours trying to figure this thing out and ended up only taking 10 seconds to fix <_<

my advise is to check this before anything else as its so easy to fix and you don't need to remove the dash

And where abouts is this blend door located?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

the blend door itself is in side the aircon unit in directly behind the stereo and climate control unit if you take the dash off and stick your hand in the vent

its to the left and it blacks

on the outside of this unit (drivers side foot well) there is a motor with a grey rod looking thing that runs the opppisite direction (back towards the passanger side)

when you move the temp from hot to cold the motor should move the rod back and forth which should be attached to the blend door.

in my case rod had fallen off where it connects to the blend door (motor was fine)

from the passanger side foot well you should be able to see this clearly

just clip it back on
