Well i was just wondering if anyone else notices this and if something is wrong with a heat sensor or something similar....ill just turn on regular air and if i turn the heat up (digital) there isn't a difference in heat from the lowest up to 84....once i hit the max 85 then it turns really hot....it doesnt get warmer as i increase the temp...any ideas?? thanks!

 

there's actually a way to test the temp sensors....

as soon as you start the car (within 2-3 seconds) hold off on the auto temp control until a number appears.

I forget how to cycle through but i use the temp dial and defrost some others... anyway, it has a real time digital read out of temp sensors and one of mine was frozen at 131 deg F. Thats why mine doesn't work... same exact issue though.

then look up which sensor it is and replace it.

peace

 

it's a bad "Intake Sensor" (what Nissan calls it). the sensor is at the downstream end of the A/C condensor under the passenger dash. The replacement sensor is about 5 bucks, but it is a MAJOR PITA to install....

 

so if i do this just for the hell of it, it wont screw anything up in my vehicle will it? Also what exactly does this procedure do, do you think there is any way you can hook me up with a link or something

 

grrreeat. ill get around to checking the temp sensor....then if that is ok. then ill to the PITA intake sensor after. anyone have a simlle how-to?? words will be fine pictures will be better...man i thought i was the only one with this problem....it has been like this for a long time i just never got around to asking to org about it. )

 

so, i could only find the sensor for 34 bucks it's a lot more expensive elsewhere, but rock auto has it for 34 bucks.... where is it for 5?

i have no idea, but i found it here, no it won't mess anything up, if you turn the dial it jumps from like 2 3 41 51 and then i recently found 61 i think .... but one tests vents (maybe 41) and cycle through with a button i forget which, but no i never hurt anything, i don't really think you can. oh 61 changes temp correction up to 6 degrees + or -

i played with it for a while to find out how but try anyway.

 

ohhh, kool. thanks for the reply, Im gonna try this out just for the hell of it,
