AC and Heat at same time? by jking5

When the AC on my 2004 Yukon XL is running, sometimes the heat comes on...just on one side, while cool AC continues to blow from the other side? Any suggestions besides taking it to the dealer's. Warranty has run out and can't afford their rates.

I have posted about this before a couple of times. I had the same problem with my '04 tahoe and I fixed it by disconnecting the A/C control unit wire harnesses.
 
Easy job to do. Take the bezel out and unscrew the 4 screws. You need to hold the clips on both sides to pull the controller out. Disconnect harnesses at the same time and then replace all.
 
Worked for me.

Thanks for the help. Pretty straight forward job except for disconnecting wiring harnesses. Not a lot of room to work with. Blower is working fine at the moment.

Problem:
 
My rear A/C blows really cold regularly and the front blows cool for only a couple of days after a couple cans of 134A.
 
Question:
 
Is there a leak? Are my valves clogged? Or does something need to be replaced?
 
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
 
Thanks,
 
Coach

All I can say is A-W-E-S-O-M-E!!!!!!!!!!!! My son has a 2004 GMC Yukon and first it had a short in it that was draining the battery. I got that fixed. Then the speedometer cluster went out. $600 at GM to fix it, but I found a guy on E-Bay that fixed it for $64. (Brian's Speedometer Shop-Muldrow, OK) Now the AC was blowing hot air out the driver's side and cold air on the passenger's side. I just went out and took it apart and unplugged the harnesses on the back of the AC control and it works GREAT! Thank you very much!

Is this something so simple a layman can do it? I'm not sure I'd know what a harness is?

From what you say it sounds like your A/C system refrigerant charge is low.
 
To check for this you would need to have refrigerant pressure checked. Normally this is easy by running the engine with A/C on MAX cool and check the pressure in the low side service port but as your truck is 1994 model it could be more complicated as you might still have the old R12 refrigerant system. I'm not sure if pressure gauges etc. are available for that system to buy without a permit.
 
If you have the R12 system you should have it converted to 134a system, which you can service yourself.
 
If you have the 134a system get a pressure gauge from a parts store. Check pressure and if low charge system but first add oil charge as it is an old system. You might also want to add a charge with O-ring conditioner as if you are low in charge then you must have a leak somewhere.
 
Add refrigerant until pressure is at required level.

Climate Control Issue 2005 yukon by needlenose
Sep 04, 2009 (9:55 pm)

I am new here; I have been reading up on climate control issues after battery reconnect. I have tried removing Neg batt terminal to reset; would next like to try to reset module by pulling fuses. There are several that refer to front, both under hood, and on side of dashboard. Does anyone know the exact fuse that I should pull to attempt this reset. My system is blowing heat only, and I have no control over where the heat exits. Rear air is just fine.
