OK ,
I just wrapped up the DCCV replacement and it seems to have cured the heat problem ( where as we had no heat ) now we have full control of THAT part of the climate controls HOWEVER , the AC is another problem..............the compressor engages and you hear a "woooshing" sound , kind of sounds like a vacuum leak under dash and AC wont blow cold. Is there a vac controlled door under the dash that may not be actuating? I replaced the o' rings at the comp manifold and it engaged compressor and seemed to be holding a charge after 2 weeks since the compressor would continue to engage when turned on.
Before changing the DCCV.........
It WAS working on one side of the dash ( driver side , warm on pass side ). although not real cold but it may have been low on charge as I dont have any gauges to check charge so I dont want to over charge ( going to have it vac'd down and charged at a shop)...............now I've changed the DCCV and all I get is the "vac" sound and no cool air............geeezus.
Any ideas as to whats going on here?
Thanks in advance.
