| My A/C on my 2004 Grand Cherokee only blows out of the defroster vent. When the problem first started, it would work properly out of the front vent, then it would work out of the defroster vent, but now it only blows out of the defroster vent. I made a plastic 90 degree deflector piece that fits over the vent that sends the a/c back to the passangers. Is there an easy way to fix this? If I can get it only to blow out of the front vents ... I'll be happy. | |

I have a 2001 JGC and my heat does not work. Air is coming out but it isn't hot. I checked the hoses running to and from the heater core and they are both warm but I still have no heat. It will switch from Defrost to front vents and floor ok also. Just no heat. I was told blend air door behind glovebox and that I should get the heatertreater for it. Does anyone have any suggestion or an answer before I buy this heater repair kit on a whim?Thanks.

Replying to: mbouch67 (Jan 22, 2009 10:43 am) I have been through this and can tell you that you might have a blend door problem or if not, you will in the future on this model unless someone has already been into it. The obvious sign that you have a blend door problem is there is lots of outside air flowing into the car and you can't control it. This means poor heat in the winter and compromized AC in the summer. Usually you will still get pretty good heat on the driver's side but nothing but cold air on the pasenger side, then the problem "migrates" over to the driver's side and you have poor heat there too. I would reccommend checking the "basics" first. Thermostat and heater core efficentcy. If the coolent level is correct and the engine temp is w/ in range (hafeway or very close on the gauge) check your heater core for flow. I had to disconnect both lines and "backflush" the core, you would be surprised at the junk that comes out of the core. I did this even after the blend door fix thing. If you determine that you do have a blend door issue, by all means check into heatertreater.net This is a great fix and completely "doable" by most folks who know which end of a screwdriver to hold. Good luck gwd601

My problem persist: I get the proper blended cold/hot air, but it only comes through the windshield vent. All the air bounces off the windshield and takes much longer to heat/ cool the Jeep. If I can only get the air to come out the front vents. The direct switch doesn't seem to work no matter what position I put it in. Any ideas anyone?

| The vacuum line under the battery box was cracked in several places. Why they would put a vacuum line line in such a hard to get area is beyond me. | |

Replying to: scootter1 (Dec 17, 2008 1:02 pm) Or any child, to possibly put there hands in the cutout section and get hurt by electrical wires and moving parts of the two actuator motors. Plus you have to cut about 6” off the end of the glove box compartment and HTer leaves you hanging on how to repair the cut off end of the glove box. How did you repair the cut off end of your glove box? If you have any children I hope you will keep the glove box locked at all times! What do you think the liability factor would be when you sell your vehicle with the end of the glove box cut off with the electrical wires and two actuator motors exposed!! HTer dual control kit has thirteen parts to put together along with cutting wires, spicing them and Repairing you glove compartment box. For future readers, please make an honest comparison. There is a Safe - Worry Free – User Friendly – three piece "Blen Dor Dual Control" blend door repair kit. |
