A/C Goofed off.

Post by OrangeTheCarGuy »

So since I bought my 03 Bonnie SLE (with the dual zone auto climate control) When I first turn on the A/C, I get cold air on the passenger side and hot air from the drivers side, what's weird about mine is that after running for around 30 minutes, the drivers side slowly starts to cool down, but never gets as cold as the passenger side. Sometimes It does it quicker. Could it simply be my airmix actuator? Or something else? My A/C system has a good charge. Even after I replaced the battery a few weeks ago it's still no different, any ideas?

AC does not have a good charge. This is a symptom of a weak charge. Give it another 12oz can and it will be all good.

Alright, I will try this and let you know what happens, why is it that it is still ice cold on one side? Because the A/C system is on that side of the car? Just curious.

Probably has to do with what side the freon enters and exits the evaporator.
