UPDATE 1/22/15** ISSUE RESOLVED FOR NOW. SOLUTION ON PAGE 2
Figured I should start my own thread here regarding the issue I am having vs continuing to hijack old threads.
Little back story. Recently picked up a new to me 97 CE. Upon driving it originally AC worked great as well as heater. Fast forward a week or so and I rolled the car into the local car wash(DIY), spray it down, wash it and away we go. It was getting chilly as we were leaving so I flipped the heat on...blows fine for a second, surges off..then on again. After having that happen I shut it off as I was fearful of having it permanently go wacky...and it did.
I now have no heat, not even from the rear. No air movement whatsoever from the front. Portion of the control unit lights are out, as well as a few radio lights (on the left side). When pressing the buttons for the vent selection I can hear it switching around. AC button is dead as well as the circulate/fresh air button.
I pulled the white control box under the dash on the drivers side, to find it clean, dry and looking normal. Pulled the AC amplifier from behind the glove box on the pass side...again clean, dry, and looking normal. Both the AC, Defog, and Heater fuses looked fine as well. So now what as I am getting stumped and all the reading/searching on here really isn't pointing me to another cause?
I was just reading tonight that the FSM states:
1) fusible link
2) circuit breaker
3) heater relay (square 5 connector)
4) a/c control assembly
5) blower motor
6) blower speed control relay (8 connector)
Regarding the Fusible link...where is it located for the Climate Control?
Any help or insight is appreciated its chilly here in socal as of late (go on flame away haha)!
Cheers!
