Hello, I've owned my 1998 Pontiac Grand Prix GT since it came off the Dealer lot in 1998. The only real problems that I've ever really had with it is basic wear and tear except for the replacement of the altenator 3x after having to replace the speakers. I have had the low coolant light come on, due to corrosion of the sensor. The only real problem I've had with my Pontiac Grand Prix GT is my Air conditioning system went out on me after 7 years of use in Florida weather and had to have a new compressor put in. Now for the real problem. My Air Condition is doing this absolutely weird thing of only blowing the cold air out of the passengerside vents and not the driver side. My Husband has taken the dashboard out of the car to try to find and fix the problem. Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this to happen? I'm thinking that the "flapper door" is stuck in one certain position causing it to only send the cold air to the passenger side instead of both sides, but would like to know what/if there are other possiblities that may be causing the problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Cherokee P.S. My low coolant light is still on even though everything else has been fixed.

So after that I changed out...ACC unit, checked actuator, changed driver side temp sensor, changed outside temp sensor. Finally took it to my mechanic and he said he just added more freon. Blowing out freezing cold both sides!! If that is not your problem then the first thing I would check would be driver side actuator if it is an automatic dual climate control system. not sure if it is same on your car( i have a 2000) but it is fairly easy to get to. Remove kick panel under steering wheel, take steering wheel kick panel off(metal one). First time took awhile to take out, when I re checked it, took about 15 mins. Search "Morads" on ebay. He deals in used parts and has theses available.

| The heating in my 2002 Grand Prix is not working as it should. Now that fall has arrived, I've noticed that its taking much longer to heat up, and the temp is not as hot as it should be. I've also noticed that when it does heat up (warm/not hot), it sometimes reverts back to a cooler temp. I recently replaced the resistor that caused speeds 1 & 2 not to work, but that should not impact the temp. Any ideas? | |

Replying to: shadow83blk (Sep 18, 2007 9:05 pm) The car is my son's and he is away at college. He just called and the blower is completely dead, the connector is melted. Earlier he was able to get it running by wiggling the wires and the connector made contact. He didn't tell me that he had to keep doing this though. He is frantic and hot since I am not there and have no idea what it looks like. Does anyone know if the connector is wired to the blower and can be replaced? He said that it looks like it is part of a plastic housing.
