adaddo Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 Anyone ever experience similar problems? My heat will blow properly on the "drivers side" But continually blows cold on the pass. side I had a similar problem awhile back on my wifes 97 plymouth voyager ...It was the "Climate controls" ...where u turn the heat/air off/on Dealer charged about 600 to fix it Am I looking at the same situation? Any help appreciated.. Thx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Might be a sticky actuator. Try running the temp up to 90 then back down to 70 or what ever you set it at to exercise the actuator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruzajc1 Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 actuator door. if it's the passenger side it's cheaper than the driver side because of the work they have to do to get to it. It cost me about 200 to get it done. Gus 96 STS see www.adumbrecords.com for my 96 STS smoking several cars at the track Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 Both actuators are located behind the glove box near the ACM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adaddo Posted May 1, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 thx 4 the info guys...I'll check it out and report back....... Is the door that I need to possibly lube, located behind the glove box as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted May 1, 2005 Report Share Posted May 1, 2005 I think so. Another posibility is a heater core pluged. Bottom half is clogged and air is stratified (hot on top and cold on the bottom). Flushing the heater core usually solves that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adaddo Posted May 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 Hey Guys... I took the cover off under the passenger side glove box... Only saw one actuator....and it is working properly....as i change temps Any other ideas? Guess I'm gettin ready to investigate the possibile heater core next Any feedback appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KHE Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 If the actuators are working properly, I would disconnect the heater hoses and flush the heater core with a garden hose. Adapt the garden hose to the heater hoses and reverse flush. Create backpressure by alternately pinching off and releasing the inlet hose. Blow out the water from the core, reconnect the heater hoses, and top off the coolant.

adaddo Posted May 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 thx... i"ll do that also......seeing only 1 actuator...under the glove box......would i be looking at the correct one? possibly the drivers one is on the drivers side? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranger Posted May 13, 2005 Report Share Posted May 13, 2005 If you have dual zone heating, there are two actuators. As I recall one is higher and easier to see thru the glove box and the other is lower and easier to see from underneath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
