    problem with the AC

    hi guys, my problem is that when i turn on the AC, the air only comes from the upper vents that are in the dashboard as it was selected to defrost the windshield. i took out the climate control unit (not digital) to see its condition, i even opened, but seems its ok; the fuse it's ok too, is there any relay for the AC?
    thanks for any info…

    They aren't electric doors, they run on vacuum, check for leaks

    Had the exact same problem.
    Took a bit of following vacuum diagrams and what not but I got it to function again.

    also, if there is no heater control valve could it cause overheating problems with the car?

    thanks

    Restore it, Don't crush it. They don't make them like this anymore.
