A/C not working?

Hi agg2,

You won't see any codes. You would only see the indicators on the air modes showing. Eg. Air flow to upper, air flow to legs, A/C on, A/C off, fan speed at minimum, fan speed at maximum, fan speed at 2nd point only.

If there is none, you need to check for dislodged or stuck air mix vent linkages.

Hi don-harriet,

Try disconnecting the battery negative terminal for ten seconds and try again.

If it did not work, try this and see if there is anything on record.

How to retrieve a dtc (without hds):

The audio-HVAC display panel has a self-diagnosis function for climate control. To run the self- diagnosis function, do the following:
1. Turn the ignition switch ON (II).
2. Set the driver's temperature control dial or button on MAX Cool.
3. Press and hold the OFF button.
4. While holding the OFF button, press the rear window defogger button five times within 10 seconds.
The self-diagnosis will begin.

If there are any problems in the system, the temperature indicator will light up the segment (A through Q) corresponding to the error. The temperature indicator will then alternate every second between displaying "88" (all segments lit) and the error code segment (A through Q).

NOTE: The system will only display the DTC when the AUTO and OFF buttons are pressed. If you release the buttons, the display will go blank. To return the display, simply press the AUTO then the OFF buttons again.

If no segments light up, the system is still not operating properly, check the sensor inputs to the climate control unit, or refer to SYMPTOM TROUBLESHOOTING INDEX .

Cancelling the Self-diagnostic Function
5. Turn the ignition switch OFF to cancel the self-diagnostic function. After completing repair work, run the self-diagnostic function again to make sure that there are no other malfunctions.

Hi again,

Looks like you have to check the control unit or the internal linkages for fault.

Hello,

Have you checked your climate control display for any Heating Ventilation Air Conditioning (HVAC) Direct Trouble Codes (DTC)(s) yet? I have included the directions for pulling them up in the diagrams down below. Please go through the guide and get back to us with what you are able to find out.

Thanks,
