VS Climate Control problem

[miker75]

I'm sure there is a writeup about this problem, but for the life of me I can't seem to find it at the moment.

Got a problem with my VS Climate Control. The direction of the air will either be on the windscreen, or on your feet, but won't change to blow on your face.

I read somewhere that it's a vacuum hose from the engine or something that controls this movement, but if someone could point me in the right direction I'd appreciate it.

Thanks

^^^^^ that, plus it'd be the vacuum box that sits behind the head unit under the dash.

Look down the bottom of the web page you are on now - there is is section called "Similar Threads" which gives links to your problem.

The only similar threads I get are:
- Stalling when pulling up at the lights (not the same issue)
- Display won't turn on (not the same issue)
- Cross on the display (not the same issue)
- buzzing/grinding sound (not the same issue)

I did actually try a search for it but came up with nothing... if you do see a topic on it could you paste a link here?


I was told by the air-con guy that the vacuum hoses from the engine to the air-con have most likely perished which is causing the problem but he was very reluctant to fix it as he said it would be a pr*#$ of a job.. and I do remember reading about it about a year ago or more on here but for the life of me cannot find the posts again..
