Wh Statesman: Ac Control Removal. How?

[rclark]

Problem Solvered.

To help the next person, here is what I learned.

SYMPTOMS:
- Climate Control AC system
- AC Fan only works on HIGH position

CAUSE (MOST PROBABLE)
- The Ventilation Motor Contol (VMC faulty)

DETAILS
The VMC is a kinda electronically controlled resisitor. It is located in the SAME place as the fan resistor pack in the models with a manual fan speed switch. That location is to the right of the ventilation fan, behind the glove box. I used a Gregory's workshop manual for Commodores -1997-1999 to learn how to remove the glove box and get to the VMC.

MY VMC FAULT
It was a bad solder on one of the legs of the power transisitor of the VMC. I just resoldered that joint, and it worked fine.

Thanks for all the feedback from you guys.

good to hear it's all working, i had a feeling it was the variable resistor, and sure enough, it was, very very happy boy, (not bad, considering i havent had my greasy hands on a stato yet, still trying that
