Replying to: njohnson1975 (Mar 28, 2007 11:16 am) Could be low on 134a, circuit board is not much to go on.

Replying to: mervs (Jul 25, 2006 6:36 am) It could very well be a compressor problem. I have a 91 Chevy Cavalier RS 2.2 ltr, automatic. It did the same thing from the time I got it in 2001. It just recently stopped working altogether and we took it in to the mechanic today and he called this afternoon and said the compressor was leaking all over the place, so it could very well be a problem with a weak/sluggish compressor.
#34 of 61 Any idea on labor costs? by k_erin Jun 12, 2007 (6:00 pm)
I have a 91 Chevy Cavalier RS (2.2 ltr, 4-cyl, automatic). We had to take it in today to have the a/c repaired. We live in Northeast Texas. Does anyone have any idea of what fair labor costs should be? Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 12, 2007 9:35 pm) k_erin (Jun 13, 2007 7:18 pm) Mr_Shiftright (Jun 14, 2007 7:47 am)

Replying to: k_erin (Jun 12, 2007 6:00 pm) no easy answer. The AC system has a lot of components and repairs could range from $150 to $1,500. If your compressor seized while driving, you can count on big bucks. If the AC just went warm one day, you might get lucky and only have a leak.

Replying to: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 12, 2007 9:35 pm) Hi, Thanks for your reply. We actually got the car back today and it came to a grand total of $791.82, parts and labor. They replaced the compressor, dryer, orifice filter, vaccuum, and replaced freon oil, and recharged with 2 cans of freon. We also had them replace the spark plugs while they were working on it because the head had busted not long ago and the mechanic failed to replace all of the spark plugs. All in all, it wasn't too bad. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Jun 14, 2007 7:47 am)

Replying to: k_erin (Jun 13, 2007 7:18 pm) Sounds like a very fair price for all that work. If the compressor seizes, that send debris throughout the system and that requires replacing even more than you had done. But I think you got a good deal if it was done competently.
#38 of 61 2003 Cavalier AC Vents??? by gpuck16 Jul 05, 2007 (7:19 pm)
My 2003 Cavalier is acting up. Air will blow from the passenger vent, floor, and defroster but not from the two middle and driver's side vents. This seems to be intermittent because the vents worked a week ago and now they have stopped. Any suggestions? The AC blows cool air from all the other vents.

#40 of 61 What is up with this? I need air.... by tweety10 Aug 13, 2007 (11:55 am)
I have a 97 Cavalier. The A/C goes in and out. I don't know what to do. I know that it its not the blower motor or the switch bc those both have recently been changed. Um, I think it maybe an electrically problem but i don't know where to start. Please Help, I need some air...
