#63 of 72 Climate Control Issue, Fans Not Kicking On by steelcitybelle Jul 20, 2008 (8:52 am)
Stumbled across these car forums a few months ago and found them quite useful for a female who had a dad who worked with cars for a living, and refuses to have the "shop guys" stick it to her. However, I haven't been able to find a solution to an ongoing problem that I am having, and would love any assistance you can offer.   I have a 1998 Dodge Caravan, SE that overheats when stopped in traffic or running idle for any extended periods of time. I had it at the shop and they said they believe it is the computer. They said everything they tested worked, wires, relay I believe, but the fans would not kick on.   Also, I had previously fixed a 'flashing lights' issue I was having on my climate control, but that too has defaulted again to being a problem. The same solution no longer fixes it this time, and when I hold the two top and bottom, left most button to recalibrate the system (the solution that once worked), the top left one flashes once, and then the middle one seems to be counting out a code of 24569 and then repeats itself. We also have no heat in the winter, or AC in the summer. I'm also pretty sure the only vent the air blows out of is the defrost button on the dash. Any ideas on what this could be and how I can fix it without getting a new computer?

#65 of 72 location of filter for a/c systerm by pvvoyager May 05, 2009 (7:26 pm)
I have a 99 voyager and was told that there was an a/c filter that could be accessed from inside the cabin of the van. There is no mention of it in the owners manual, can anyone tell me where it is located or if there is a downloadable diagram how to access it ? thanx

#69 of 72 Air conditioning Problem 01 DGC EX - 3.8L w/112,000 miles by masterpaul1 Jun 19, 2009 (4:46 pm)
Hi All and Happy Fathers Day. The weirdest thing happened last night while driving home from work. I was driving all but 15 min. with the air on, then all of a sudden, all the squares lit-up for the gear selection, the air bag light came on and the air was warm blowing out of the vents. I thought that maybe the engine cut off, but it didn't, so I kept driving. I tried turning off the blower but it wouldn't turn off. So, I though to stop and turn off the engine. After I did that everything went back to normal. I drove for about an hour today and didn't have any problems.   Was just wondering if anyone else experienced this and if this is a sign of a bigger problem down the road? Thanks
#70 of 72 air conditioning problem by scott133 Jul 28, 2009 (8:32 am)
Hi   I have a 1996 VW jetta that I top up the freon every year on to get the air conditioning working. I just this week put some in but I'm afraid I put too much . It was supposed to be 800 grams of freon and I put 1000 grams. The compressure still works but I don't get any cold air coming out the vents. Could I have damaged something permently? can I take some out? if so do I take it out from the high or low side of the system?   I would be thankful for any help

Replying to: mauriciog (Jun 11, 2009 4:44 pm) Hi, I have a 1998 Plymouth Grand Voyager, I just bought it in February 2009. I have been using my a/c and using it properly, turning it off before I turn off the vehicle. Things like that, I have had enough vehicles with a/c units that go out and no money to fix the problem. However, I have small children and live in Sacramento CA. I need an a/c. Today when I left my house I used my air like I normally do, however, when I got to my mom's house 3 miles away. I turned off the car, got out and heard some bubbling sounds. Then I called my husband at work told him what was happening. Put water in the coolant resourvor. Just like he told me. I left my mom's house about an hour later and turned on the a/c however it was only blowing out hot air. I took it to a place that I thought could recharge it and it would be fine. He told me that neither of the fans are turning on. I called Kragen's they said it might be a relay, but I don't know how to check those and my husband isn't quit sure either. They also said to check the fuses which my husband is going to do later today when he gets off work. I'm not sure what's going on with the air, but I am open to suggestions. Please email me and let me know if you have heard of this problem or you have had it. Replies to this message: xwesx (Aug 17, 2009 9:10 am)

Replying to: kjwhite09 (Aug 16, 2009 12:29 am) If the fans are not coming on, then the van will be prone to overheating - especially at low speeds or idle. The relays and fuses are located in the power distribution center, which is just to the right (looking at the van) of the battery. Inside the lid of the PDC is a diagram that labels each of the fuses and relays (the relays are the black boxes). If you pick up a Haynes manual, it will show you the testing procedure (I have done it, but cannot remember which prong did what and therefore do not want to steer you astray). You will need a multimeter and a set of alligator clips.   If the relay is fine, check the connection on the fans themselves to make sure it is getting power.
