Pull your hvac fuse in car it may reset actuators if not have it checked out as the temp actuator may be bad. Pull fuse for 60 seconds with key on then reinstall. If it still doesn twork you may have to have the climate control programmed to your car by a pro.

I have a 2007 HHR LT. The temperature gage does not move and the a/c blows hot. HOWEVER, I can disconnect my battery and it will be okay for a day or so. This makes me think a relay is sticking but where?

Change the coolant temperature sensor and unplug and then plug back on the negative battery cable. I fixed yesterday mine

My ac was blowing hot air I took it in and they replace some part got it back still not working, now they said it need a part that was on the computer and they said it would cost 450.00 when I said I could not afford it (this was spring time) I would just go without they said they could turn something so I would just have ac but no heat. Now it is late fall and I need defrost and heat but still don't have the 450.00 would you know what part they are talking about so I can see if I can buy it cheaper. Thank you

You need to look at your receipt or call them back for the name for us.

At this point we have no idea
