'98 Chevy Venture Air compressor quit working

Chevy Venture has an accessory air compressor located in the rear on the driver's side, comes with an air hose/tire chuck/pressure dial and can be used to inflate beach toys, tires, etc. Problem is, it quit working. Does not seem to be any power to the switch, it's a momentary contact membrane-type switch that locks in a self-holding relay to start the compressor. Thought it might be a fuse, but there is no reference to the compressor in the list of fuses either in the owner's manual or inside the cover(s) of the two fuse blocks (one under the hood, one on the passenger side of the dash). Really don't want to have to check EVERY fuse, does anyone know what fuse actually supplies the compressor??

    My compressor does'nt work when you attach the hose, yet it still makes a noise as if it is working. I checked the book and I think that the fuse is the one marked ELEC TRLR... let me know what you think

Heater hose diagram 1999 Chevy Venture with rear heat and air.

I couldn't find a heater hose diagram specific to the 1999 Chevrolet Venture with rear heat and air, but I can give you the general location of the heater hoses and how to identify which ones go to the rear heat. The heater hoses on a 1999 Chevy Venture are located on the passenger side of the engine compartment. There are two heater hoses, one that is hot and one that is cold. The hot heater hose will be connected to the heater core, which is located under the dashboard. The cold heater hose will be connected to the engine. To identify which heater hose goes to the rear heat, you can look for the hose that is connected to the heater core outlet that is labeled "Rear Heat." The other heater hose will be connected to the heater core outlet that is labeled "Heating Core Inlet." Once you have identified the heater hoses that go to the rear heat, you can reconnect them to the heater core. Be sure to use new clamps when you reconnect the hoses. Here are the steps on how to replace the heater hoses on a 1999 Chevy Venture with rear heat and air: Disconnect the negative battery cable. Drain the coolant from the radiator. Remove the heater hoses from the engine and heater core. Install the new heater hoses. Fill the cooling system with coolant. Reconnect the battery cable. Start the engine and check for leaks.

I have a 2001 Chevy Venture, this fall all of the sudden the air conditioner quit blowing cool air you can push the switch for AC but it doesn't light up or blow cool air. and the rear defroster quit...

I'm afraid I must recommend some professional help with this one. Or maybe a mechanic friend.
There's so many things..... For example the 134a (freon) may have leaked causing the Low Pressure Cut Out Switch, (in the hose under the hood) to keep the compressor off so as to not burn it up.
Could be a fuse or relay. Could be the switch controll on the dash... See what I mean?
Sorry but in my opinion you'll have to bite the bullet and pay the piper. Cheaper in the long run, though. You can replace many things before you luck onto the problem part.

Location of a secondary air pump on a 2002 chevy venture

The A.I.R pump is located on the driver's side of the vehicle, just in front of the front tire. If you remove the tire & look at the inner fender well, you'll see that it's designed with a "trap door". Remove the screws that hold the door closed, then fold the door back to reveal the pump. What usually happens is the pump sucks in the sponge filter on the intake side & it lodges in the impeller blade...this causes the fuse to blow & eventually a code will set & the Service Engine Light will come on. The fuse is located under the hood in the black fuse box on the passenger side...the box should be clearly visible & easily accessable. Look for a 30A fuse, probably in location # 39.
