Title: No heat from CC unit
Post by Christopher_Dean on Mar 13^th, 2006, 11:15am

I just bought a '98 2.3 Ultima and despite a few little niggles it's an absolute beauty..

However, I'm not getting any warm/hot air through the CC system. I've played with all of the controls, CC on / off, recirculation on/off but to no avail. Could it be that the heat exchanger is blocked or that somewhere behind the dash a cable/rod has come loose?

The fan works perfectly, I get air through all of the vents be just no warm/hot air.

Please help as it's geting colder out there.

Have you done a full system reset ? If not try that before anything else http://www.fordscorpio.co.uk/ccreset.htm

Hi Snoopy,

I've gone through the reset and I can hear lots of whirring from behind the dash (flaps opening and closing I presume). At one point the whirring is so regular it almost sounds like someone breathing. But unfortunately, still no warm air. I was not gettng an error code just the '00'.

I've got to replace some dashboard bulbs so I might just remove the whole dash an see if anything obvious is wrong.

Thanks for your help

Chris
