It appears that you need to replace the temperature console. You can't just replace the slide bars. The whole unit needs to be replaced. Goodluck.

Steve, my son-in-law has the same problem but do you still think its the temp control unit if: when the slider is up, heat blows, when mid way, outside air blows, when down, outside air still blows? Also, we swapped vaccum hoses on the back of the unit behind the sliders but no change. It seems the working side has no vacuum pressure but the non-working side does (assuming they correlate to the sliders). The unit is about $100 and probably non-returnable. Your further advice would be big bucks appreciated!

2006 A/C drain

My wife has noticed a musty odor coming from the ac vents during operation. I believe it may be a clogged condensate drain. However for the life of me, I can't locate the a/c drain. Before I take the vehicle in to the dealer for this "small problem", does anyone know where the drain is accessible from? I can see the freon lines going to the evaporator through the firewall, but no drain anywhere near. Sounds like an easy fix once I locate the drain. Any ideas?

I have an 05 Chevy Impala and the A/C works great but when heat is engaged I only get heat from the passenger side of the vehicle, regardless of the setting on the dual climate control...Others have the same or similar problem but no one can pinpoint the solution. Can someone please help???

I'd check the heater core, especially if the steam smells at all like antifreeze/coolant.

I had a 2004 Impala LS with the same problem. The dealership diagnosed it with as a bad temp. actuator. I just found the receipt the part number was 15249473. The total cost to be fixed was $195. The part was $45 and the rest was labor. I hope this helps.

A/C Heater Contol problems

I recently purchased a 2000 Impala Base. The AC/Heater fans only work on level #5. I assume that the control is bad. Is replacing the control hard to do yourself? I also am having the turn signal problem (not working). Is that something that could be replaced at the same time since the dash would be taken apart too, or is that an even bigger project? Any ideas or assistance would be great.

The problem was a Blower Motor Resistor (GM Part 89018643). Its located between the blower motor and the firewall under the passenger side dash. It was a little difficult to get to, but if you have reasonable mechanical aptitude you can replace it yourself. Just make sure you get the newer version of the part...it was poorly designed and overheated and melted...but the new one seems to be a lot better designed. Cost of part was approximately $30...add approximately $150 to have replaced at dealership.

Update,That part number 15249473 has been changed to 15844096 and there are (3) of these actuators on this dual air control. And if the heat doesn't work on the drivers' side then it is the actuator on the drivers' side that is bad and needs replacing. And just the opposite for the other side. And it cost me $43.47 including tax. And it took me about an hour to replace it. Thanks guys, As I have talk to plenty of my mechanic buddies and none had a clue about this problem.
