AC blows hot air, Heat works fine

Was in a recent front end accident, got the Tahoe fixed ever since then AC is not working only blows hot air. Heat works fine though.

    Thank you guys for the respones...I actually did get that checked out and the condensor is fine and it currently has freon. I found a wire that seems to have gotten cut somehow and cant find where it should be attached to...took it back to the body shop and he couldnt find the other end either. He is sending me to some other place but I'm trying to avoid any excessive fees. Could a cut wire cause this problem?

You may have damage to the condensor, this is common lots of shops dont check it,i would call your insurance co. and tell them, you may have a hole in the condensor and all the feron may have leaked out, or have the body shop check it, the shop who repaired it, the condensor sits in the front of truck behind radiator and bumper,

Chances are you got it fixed in the winter and they didnt think to check your A/C condenser. The Condenser sits next to or in front of the radiator cooling unit. THey get punctured and leak freon. The heat being blown is indiciative that your blower and control unit is fine. If the repair was done by a reputable body shop or the dealer they should have checked it. If they havent checked it then they failed to do their job properly and you should have it reviewed. A lot of times they will see the radiator is undamaged and overlook the condenser. Take it aback to the dealer and have it reviewed. Tell them to specifically check the condenser unit

My 2000 Chevy Tahoe front ac dosnt work but rearworks blows hot air

Sounds as if you have more than one problem. If the rear is blowing hot then the AC is not working. The front should also blow hot if the front fan motor is functioning.Youi need to have the system pressures tested for proper freon levels and have the front blower motor system tested if it is not working

My gmc yukon 2000 slt rear ac blows hot air when i have ac . on and the front works fine .

I have a 2000 GMC Savana Van SLT with front and rear AC/Heat. My front would blow hot while the rear blew cold with AC on. It turned out to be low on Freon. It's hard to know if you have the right amount of freon installed because pressures vary depending on the ambient temperatures. So the best way is to remove all the freon then reinstall the recommended amount as listed on the evaporator housing near the firewall. This worked fine for me... works like new after installing the correct amount of freon.

2001 tahoe front heater not working, rear heater blows warm air

I have the same problem with my 2001 Tahoe. The front blower is working, its blowing strong, but its cold air even with the temp setting as high as it can get. The rear blows hot air. The engine temp guage is at about 210ish which is close to being normal (220). I just replaced the thermostate a few months ago, I don't know if its bad again, or it I deluted the antifreeze too much and it frooze the heater core, or if the heater core just went bad. Any one know what the cause could be?
