Climate Control Problem??

[Beaker™]

My climate control has been acting odd for a month or so now. If i set it to 28 it blows out cold air, yet if i go up one to H1 then it gets really hot! When i 1st bought the car 28 was also really hot, whats going on?!

Do you have a FMIC?

Do you have a FMIC?

No i don't and all other engine temps seem normal??

I think mine has a similar issue to it! Blows out cold all the way up unless on HI???

So any explanation would be good!

Mine did this when i bought the car, i topped up the water to just over full and its been fine since

Can't really see how that would help as the heating sytem is obviously capable of heating the air because it does it on H1. But theres no harm in trying it, cheers

Can be alot to do with external temp sensor, if it nots working properly it will make the heater blow out cold air unless its set on HI, mine did this when my external temp sensor went to ****. just a thought anyway lol

 

[kieran_cupra]

They are in the small mirrror arnt they, do yoiu have to cut them out and re solder them or r they plug in n out??

well i did want to just plug mine in, i took the door card off and the plug is up abit from the speaker on the door, but the plug has lots of other wires in it for the electric mirror....and i couldnt get the pins out of the plug on the new sensor. so in the end i just cut the wires in the wing mirror and soldered them on and heat shrinked it job done. i would say disconnecting the battery after uve done it to reset it

Oh bugger, well that may well be it then. Cheers guys i'll get on and sort that when winter comes
