AC PROBLEMS

[rningonfumes]

The whining noise.

There isn't a filter in the inlet from inside the cab. If you have loose stuff like napkins or paper in your glove box, it might find it's way into the fan compartment. This has happened twice to me, the first was a napkin and the most recent last week was a coupon (lol).

Easy fix... just open the glove box, to the right is a dampener ( to keep the box from slamming open), gently take it out. You might have to squeeze the tip of the pin to allow the hoop to come off. Then the glove box is resting on it's hinge. Tug on it and it should come loose. Then take it out.

Behind the glove box is a little compartment ( white). Open it and look inside. If you can't see anything, put your hand in there to feel if something is in the fan blades. Take it out.



** of course have the engine and fan off when you're in there.



While you have everything off, turn it on with the fan on to see if that addressed your fan issue.


I'm not sure about having to hit the controls/ dash to get things to start again.
