After having a new deck installed, my a/c in on constant cold. While this is fine for now, ill eventually need heat :P

With the temp either on 18c or 32c, the air is pretty cool. "FH" and "FC" doesnt make a difference, nor does the car running for an 5 minutes or an hour....

As I said, its only come about after having a new deck put in. Are there any sensors round that area that could have come out? Any ideas welcome ;)

not sure with the 32s but on the 33s there is a sensor in the dash front left of the steering column.

it looks like a little breather vent and has a hose connected on the other side from memory.

If this hose is disconnected (at either end) and is close by to something that generates a little heat, i guess it could make the AC work for colder temps.

check it out... wont hurt

Check the sensor near the deck, to the right of it. You may have to pull the deck out (not sure what type you put in there, single or double DIN) two wires and a hose to the sensor. This is the interior temp sensor, mine wasnt connected (actually, wires were cut, damn thieves :( ) and only hot would work. Try look, you never know ;)

for now yes...but what about when its cold?

Anyway,

I ripped out the climate control sensor (next to ure left leg) and all works correctly now, bar the climate control. I cleaned the sensor with wd40, hooked it up, no go. So looks like i need a new sensor :(

Any1 have an idea on $?

something would have been disturbed around the control area.

the venturi near the clutch pedal draws air from the sencor in the dash to test you can blow through the pipe slowly.also put a rag over the light sencor.

other problems ive had with my passage [same as later mosels]is the hot water sencor reading cold[on the wrong pipe] so the blend door/heater tap motor shuts off to wait for the engine to heat up.a crook thermostate will do this to.to check the door motor will move a little on start up to let a little water through.then close.

my passage R31 climate control freezes up regular to stop this R32 on have a sensor before the evaporator to compare before and after.if these are faulty or dirty it wil go into defrost and go full heat no A/C.

    • No not yet.  Hopefully this weekend if I can pluck up the confidence!  I had to sit in the car at one point yesterday to unbolt the rear struts.  As mentioned in an earlier post when I was putting it together there is still a bit of rotation possible so when I sat in the car, it rotated a little bit.  I near shit myself thinking the whole thing was coming down!  I do 99% of my own shit in the shed but I think I might call on some assistance the first time I spin it!
    • Strong first post. On a Skyline-centric forum. Have you considered actually going out into the world, visiting the actual dealership, and asking the parts guy over the counter? Or at least just call them up on the phone?
    • Should shit that in as for the driver ability probably not
    • Trying to find the plastic under cover for an 04' Forester X. The main under cover that covers most of the front of the vehicle under the engine. This has turned out to be a crazy experience. Normally I can find parts for vehicles, if I have the correct info, no problem. But not this! The Forester is a non-turbo btw. In a Forester parts catalog, for model years 03'-06', it shows part# 56410SA070 as being the correct part. So I go to the local Subaru dealership's website to order it. I type in the part#, hit search and there it is, the under cover. "DOES THIS PART FIT YOUR VEHICLE?" I type in my VIN# and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle. See Similar Parts For Your Vehicle." I click on that and part# 56410SA000 comes up. Looks absolutely nothing like the previous part. Not even close. So I go to a different Subaru dealer website and put in that 2nd part# (56410SA000) and "This Part Has Been Replaced By" 56410SA070, which is the first part I looked up. I thought OK, makes sense. They replaced the strange looking part, with the one I looked up first, so I add it to the cart. "Does This Part Fit Your Vehicle?" I type in my VIN#, and sure enough, "This Part Does Not Fit Your Vehicle." I've basically been doing this with various parts suppliers and dealerships, for the past 4 hours! Does anyone know what the hell is going on?? Thanks in advance!
