I believe if you look above your head and to the left while seated in the drivers seat, you will see a round plastic grill, about the size of a quarter. This should be your auto sensor. There is a fan in it that should have been making some noise for some time, almost like a sound over you speaker from the engine. I know I saw something on here about the part number and color code of this unit. I belive its about $25.00. Someone here took his out and cleaned and lubed it.
Update on my problem, it started again, not to work. I pulled the controller out and the plastic was somewhat melted again. It looks like the meatal tab that is suppose to come down hard and make good contact on the controler contacts was hanging up in the plug, creating a lot of resistance, causing the thing to heat at the contact point. I worked the metal contact down so it makes good contact, but the wires are now somewhat hard from the heat. Looks to have been a defective plug from the factory as I have never had this part out since new.
Good luck, Lyle

On my 2000 Yukon the carpet on the passenger side is wet all the way to the back seat. I think it is the ac drain stopped up. Not engine water, no antifreeze.
I have crawled under it but cant find it.

It is in the back on the right. Behind the right rear wheel. THe one for the front is inside the right front wheel. Been a while now but I finally carried mine to a mechanic. THey had to take the cover off inside the car; to the right of the rear seats to get to it to unstop it. My front one was ok.
My problem was that I didn't know there were 2; one for the rear and one for the front. I thought everything worked from the front but there 2 complete systems, only one compressor tho.

97 Yukon - AC & heat sporadically failing, for years... by lousyac

I've got a 1997 GMC Yukon (bought in 2001). Anyways, it's always had this problem: the fan starts blowing, I can feel the faintest leak of hot or cold air out of the vents, but no air comes out of the vents. This is an intermittent problem. Sometimes it works fine, sometimes it doesn't. No telling when it will fail or when it will work.
 
Of course, over multiple trips to the mechanic it has worked every single time for them.
 
This is driving me nuts! At this point, if there's a part that's a likely culprit I'll just buy it, hand it to the mechanic and have him replace the !#$ thing. Does anybody have any ideas what could be failing that would keep that nice cool (or hot) air from getting all the way into the cabin ?
 
Thanks in advance,
 
Pat

I have a 2004 Denali that blows heat and A/C through the defrosters only. The dealer has "adjusted" some sensor three times based on the TSB recommendations. What should I do??
