    Yes, i don't experience any air coming out of the vents.

    Need to start with the make and model of your vehicle then....you will need to do some basic trouble shooting which i'll suggest after you post. it is either electrical or a vacuum related issue as it sounds simply as tho the vents are not opening. detemine as well if any air is coming out at all in one of the vent postions. defogger etc.

Hi ,as sugested by the other tech,you need to check if the vents are opening,if you can hear the blower coming on it should be the vents not opening, so cneck for disconected or broken vacum lines ,if the blower dont come one check for blown fuses ,or if the blower motor may have gone bad , also can be the speed control switch .C1.......

My 2000 Ram 2500 AC blows cold until I step on the breaks. As soon as I break it starts blowing real hot. Starts cold again after I turn it off and turn it back on. Break again, it blows hot again...

check for a fault in the climate control module that is affected by a power surge/ depletion from the brake circuit. It would appear that the ac compressor is being switched off by the fault and switches on again when you recycle the switch( could be a relay to the ac compressor.)

I have a 2000 Dodge Ram 1500 that will blow cold and hot air for only a few minutes. After that is only ambient air temps. It is a 5.7 ltr, automatic with only one set of climate controls. The heater core...

you say it will blow cold and hot air for only a few minutes. You don't say but I assume you mean will blow cold a few min. when turned on AC max , blow hot only a few min. when turned to heater hot. Assuming thats the situation and you say AC charged and shows good on the low side -you should charge the AC to a full charge on the low side will cause problems with the AC air compressor kicking on and off. I suggest while the engine is running and turned to AC cold max watch the AC air compressor clutch to see if it does indeed kick on and off if so charge completely. As far as the heater make certain you coolant is all the way to the top and the best way to do this is when engine is completely cold remove radiator cap and fill completely and completely close cap then fill overflow container just to the cold level. That should fix your problem.

AC blows cold or hot

if it is the same thing that is wrong with my frontier. check to see if the compressor is turning on when you use the ac. if not you might have a bad connection that is intermittantly preventing the compressor from getting the signal to turn on. get a service manual and a voltmeter and you can fix.
