Reach up above the accelerator pedal. there is a flap there you can push open and block open with a 2x4. With it pushed or blocked open, if you feel plenty of airflow, then you have a problem with control (PBU) vacuum, the vacuum solenoids on the block or the actuators. There is a

The fan sounds like it is running well.  The speed can be varied but very little or nil air is coming out of the vents.  If I am driving, and open the roof vent, the air comes out thru the vents nicely.  When I come to a stop, no air is coming out, but the fan is running and sounds like it is

Ralph, Are you getting air flow form the appropriate vents in each mode? I ask because that would pin the issue on the fan, as flow would be low regardless of the mode. In that case I would be looking at the fan. If the flow varies depending on which mode the ACC is in, you’ve got an issue

[MBZ] Heater/AC Blower Motor Problems

So I have been having this strange problem with the blower motor on my 1987 420SEL. Specifically the blower motor would slow down to a crawl at random times even if the switch was on high. So I initially thought it was the blower motor, but at last it was not, so I tried another blower control

A) - the center vents should only have airflow while in cooling mode - non while in heating mode. B) - buttons - you're using the Economy mode - the AC compressor never turns on. The middle button - outline Up arrow and solid Down arrow - gives full auto control with most of the air out the

I am freezing my butt off driving my car. I have no heat and I believe several folks on the list agreed it was the monovalve, but I just want to make sure. So pull it out (four screws, 5 minute job) and see if the solenoid is full of water and/or the rubber diaphragm is torn. Unplug its

Re: [MBZ] Heater cold air

Back monvalve, bad circulation pump, bad ACC pushbutton unit. A bad monovalve that has corroded the solenoid housing is likely -- it's energized to stop coolant flow to the heater core, so when the diaphram fails and water gets in the solenoid in the summer, it gets stuck closed, No heat.
