Ac will not turn off - 2005 Chrysler Town & Country

  • Anonymous Oct 07, 2008

    The HVAC fan never turns off. even when I turn off the power in the console.

  • wiswelt Oct 07, 2008

    AC/heat blower runs full speed and when power is shut off, it goes into recirculating mode

  • tjsmash Oct 07, 2008

    My description of the problem was not detailed enough for you to properly troubleshoot the situation. My apologies for not fully understanding your rating system. I meant to imply that the response was not a fix for the problem, not that you were inappropriate. The problem should have been described as the "Bower wil not shut off" I have since found the harness connector burnt on the black wire for the Blower resistor. Chrysler wants to sell me a new IP harness and tear the dash out to replace it. Since I do not know how to check the blower resistor, I will get a new connector from the salvage yard, **** connect the 3 wires and see if that works. If not Ill replace the $73 resistor and hopefully save about $800 over the Chrysler Dealerships cost.

    I have the same problem. 2002 Town and Country LXI. Blower motor will not turn off, even when you turn off the power to the a/c system via the controls on the dash.

Had the same problem on 2003 T&C; go to the attached site; answer and procedures (good pics!) were spot on...fixed in a couple hours. Went to the dealer for the replacement; given it was an electronic board didn't want to screw around. If you have the resistor type, might give a junk yard a shot. In any event it was easy to do & worked like a charm:

Be sure when you want a/c off you have in fresh air mode if it is in reciculate a/c will cut on regardless of switch and a/c cuts on when in defrost

    please reconsider your rating!!!! this is how system works if all you have it in none of these settings and a/c is still on then we can further diagnose

    inappropiate ratings are designed for rude and off the wall comments

    WHAT YEAR?

    no problem

    We have that problem on our trucks. I work at chevy dealer.

    I think you will find that the resistor is gonna also be burnt it is usually best to replace both the connector and resistor. Chevy sells just the harness pigtail, I would think dodge does too. sometimes you get a parts guy that doesnt wanna look up. good luck to you

I have a 2011 Mazda CX-9 V6 3.7L The problem in

first off learn how AC works, for sure this, set of hard logic, in the system for self preservation.
and if you had used the OBD2 SCAN TOOl first after fuses checked
you'd already know this.
  1. high/low, R134 pressure switch tripped saving the full destruction of the compressor. a volt meter finds this truth also.
  2. the controller AC also cuts AC if engine overheats or the sensor lies.
  3. the control AC cuts AC at wide open throttle.WOT
  4. AC cuts AC if engine IN gross DTC errors, or in limp-home mode to protect it and the driver, so more power is on tap from engine.
  5. evap core sensor , sees freeze up and icing, Ice can do damage so it cut the compressor dead(means clutch off line)
  6. the controller detects ambient temps WAY to low and cuts AC.
  7. The dash controller AC is failing, but manual AC? not really if it's lamp glows for AC , the main controller is BCM on most cars.
  8. the dash HVAC blower must not be dead or AC stay off line

Hi my 2009 mondeo 20ltr titanium fan will not turn of. Start car without ac on fan comes on at full speed for a few seconds then goes of I turn ac on that comes on so does fan back to full speed not slow...

The fan is connected to the ac circuit to move air through the condensor in front of the radiator when the ac is turned on . This is to stop high head pressures in the ac and prevent damage to the compressor. There may be a problem with a coolant sensor that is turning the fan on otherwise so run fault codes and see if anything comes up

Serpentine belt slides over AC pulley when AC is off

The ac pump has a clutch coil,it is activated with the ac button,and then the middle of the pulley will turn this is the clutch,it only turns with the ac on,then when it is turned off,the pulley just turns not the whole clutch,so this is normal.

When the ac is on car vibrates

Something is not telling the computer to step up idle and is probably an ac pressure sensor. A scan tool will give you that info.
