You may have to have the body computer "flashed" by a dealer scan tool. Sometimes the body computer looses data when the battery is disconnected. Sometimes it relearns itself after a few trips.

SOURCE: driver side ac not cold

It is not a coolant leak. Nice try though. It is possible that the infra red temp sensor is faulty, also it may be a mode door(directs air flow in the heater box) or a mode door actuator. Your dealer can test for proper door actuation, and can also check temperature difference, some is not uncommon, but it depends on the temp setting, is this a dual zone, or tri-zone atc unit?

SOURCE: Heater only blows cold air

Check both heater hoses under hood to see if they get hot, if they do the heater is fine. need to check to see if the selection doors inside the unit are opening and closing.

Having problems with the vents when the AC is running. Drivers side blows hot air / passenger side is cold.

You have actuators which direct the air in the heater/vent/AC system. My first cars used metal cables, then came along vacuum line control and most now use electric control actuators. They control things such as how much air from outside the car come inside, air flow to windshield/floor or dash, control mix of air for temperature adjustment. Your problem more than likely actuator issue. You can try google vehicle year, make, model temperature different from ac vent, when search you can change wording. If vehicle is older and used vacuum lines could have line leak, my 2000 GM van once had vacuum line laying on engine melted line and leaked. My 13 Chrysler, I have changed 2 actuators they are controlled by electric and started clicking when they went bad.

2008 Honda Accord A/C blows cold from left vent, hot from right

It sounds like the actuator is stuck open on that side, forcing heat to be mixed. The actuator looks like a little shock-absorber and forces the mix of hot and cold air. They are usually way inside the dashboard near the firewall. You might need a mechanic to fix that one.

I have a chevy venture 1998. I put freon 134a in the low valve near the radiator in the front of the van. It blows cold air in the back of the van but not in the front. Is there another valve to put freon...

No ,there is not another valve . One low side service port an one high side service port . An only one A/C compressor . Under the hood in the engine compartment there are A/C lines going into the firewall . These go to the front Evaparator unit . With the vehicle running an A/C on do this line's (pipes) get cold ? If yes , your problem is probably the temp. actuator . Control's how hot or cold the air coming from the vent's get . If stuck half way , hot an cold air combine to make warm air . Replacing some of these actuators can require the dash to be removed . Your best bet ,take it to a qualified repair shop .

A/C not cycling and blowing hot and cold air.

Hello msbrig,
This is a REAL SWAG
(stab in the dark... (a bit reasoned))...

Confession... I'm no GM expert... but
General Motors & FRIDGIDAIRE
are the "GREATS" in automotive A/C.

and

This is the BEST DOCUMENTED QUESTION I have
ever seen (congratulations)...

I hope I am not doing a disservice by attempting an answer...

If your vents blow al any time... you ought disregard their behavior.. Likewise temperature controls...
and DUAL EVAPORATRS... front & rear...

The fact that your troubles are intermittent in the FRONT & REAR is a really great SYMPTOM...

You are MOST LIKELY looking at only two POSSIBLE PROBLEMS....

1. - Either your CHARGE is insufficient to keep
the compressor running.(pressure switch monitored)

OR

2. - You have a SATUATED DRYER which is allowing moisture to block your EXPANSION VALVES (internal ice) ...

External frosting is expected...
a lot of external FROST is an indication of #1. (above: low charge)...

A descent refrigeration person should be
able to tell you the HIGH and LOW pressure loads... and watch your system cycle for a few minutes... Which should be long enough to DETERMINE if you are experiencing
INTERNAL MOISTURE ISSUES...

Some folks ROUTINELY replace the ""DRYERS' (desiccant)


I do not... I use brains, gauges, experience... and your vehicles HISTORY

I am here most every day... Push comes to shove... I have the
Lincoln Navigator... dual EVAPORATOR system...
(I'll pull the book & take a look).

You can comment me back...

I bought ALL THE TOOLS years ago... NOTWITHSTANDING my amateur standing... I only let the JAGUAR DEALER jam me for an $800 Schrader Valve since 1965 (Mustang(all the rest... I did myself)).

Happy to chat... comment me back.
(again: here daily)


- Hope this inspires...
