I have a 99 Saab 9-5 my HVAC is not working correctly it will not blow any air through the system. Some air will come out once I start driving and get a little speed going , it’s cold on the driver side and warm on the passenger. I ran the diagnostic test and came up with the code’s 0.……. and then 1.………08 do you know what this means and what I can do to fix it?

Replying to: eurospecialist (Jan 22, 2008 10:20 am) I had the same problem with my 01 saab 9-5. There is a shaft on the heater box which is cracked, also a plastic lever which controls certain linkages which could be broken. Go to a saab dealer part's department and ask for the 'service bulletin' which addresses this problem. The bulletin explains what to inspect for and how to fix it. The cost if you do yourself is about $70.

#18 of 23 Air not blowing! by tron77 Mar 14, 2009 (3:57 pm)
Ok so I fixed the blend door shaft on the heater box on my 99 Saab 9-5 it works. I'm still having trouble though no air is blowing out unless I'm driving at a descent speed even then it's not really coming out. I ran the ACC test and no codes came up is this my blower motor? Anyone have a suggestion?
#19 of 23 Messed up air conditioner by dslapo Apr 12, 2009 (2:35 am)
If you have a problem with cold air on one side and hot air on the other side this is a major defect in by the manufacturer and should be fix at SAAB's expense. No extended warranty will cover. We have to make a class action suit against SAAB if they do not take responsibility for defect in there manufacturing of of the 2000 9.5 SE model's air conditioning system.

Replying to: jonnyboy001 (Jan 24, 2010 11:09 pm) There are quite a few Technical Service Bulletins on this problem related to the air mixing damper shaft within the heating/AC system. The dealer should be able to readily call up all the instructions he needs to fix the problem. Looks like some little plasticky parts are involved and maybe an hour labor---at least just from looking at the instructions. So maybe couple hundred bucks?   Reference   Bulletin No.: 854-2577   Date: December 2006, 2000   Bulletin Number: 854-2578   Date: April 2006   Bulletin Number: 854-2411 utg. 2   Date: April 2006   Notes   Bulletin No.: 854-2461   Date: March 2004   Bulletin Nbr: 871-2322   Date: March 2002

Replying to: manny78 (Feb 12, 2009 11:33 am) Maybe a little late for you, but at least for someone else. I have the for-sure solution to the interior fan not working and the #22 40 amp fuse blowing all the time. This fuse is on the same circuit as the SAI (Secondary Air Induction) device. The SAI works with the Ox sensor at start up for only the first couple of minutes. I just figured this out. I removed this device (next to the battery - round, black, pump looking device that has two pipes and one electrical connector). Took the metal half off (don't mess with the plastic side). Looked inside at the motor. Wow, look at that, one of the wires (red) is touching one of the brush holders and is shorting it out through the insulation. Solution: cut this the slightest bit shorter and crimp another connector on there, boom done. You can also just disconnect this device all together if you like as it only effects the emissions in the first five minutes or so. This will probably help most people with a heater fan not working at all. Now to figure out why there's no hot air. Uuugh.
#23 of 23 9-5 Climate Control issue by dingo1170 Mar 18, 2010 (10:22 pm)
The fault came up with 1-08 left blend door problem which I have read here can be fixed with 2 parts. But nowhere have I read that its the rear where the hot air comes out in my car so I hope this fixes this issue ? At the moment I run the A/C on lo and get cold air everywhere including the rear of the console. Anyway I have ordered the sleeve and shaft and hope this will fix this issue any ideas or have I screwed up ?
