OK, guys, get this. I had this thing "FIXED" about a year ago and it worked fine for a while. The guy charged me like $150.00 for the parts and labor. I had a broken leg at the time and I couldn't mess with it, so I was kind of at his mercy. Today I actually had time to tear into it to see what the problem was. When I took the front cover off, which took about 90 seconds to jerk out 6 screws, I discovered that the guy DID NOT change a part, he just used a piece of vaccuum line to splice the line back together. He used a piece of line that was way too big. So it worked for a while, then stopped again. This is why sometimes we could turn it off and wait 2 or 3 minutes and it would come through the vents again. I guess pressure would build up in the loosely spliced connector enough to open the flap, then leak vacuum and let the door close again. So my cousin had some smaller hose which did a great job, and now the thing is blowing snowballs at me. LOL I really thought about going to have me a talk with the jerk at QUALITY TIRE in Savannah, TN, and let him know that I found out JUST what a crook he is!! I wish I knew his name cause I post it here!! I'm kind of apprehensive about going up there cause I know he never replaced the part, just ripped me off. Charged me $150.00 for a 1 1/2" length of oversized vac hose!! Makes me mad as hell and I don't know if I could refrain from dusting his A$$!! JERK!!! I'm sure you guys know what I mean.
Anyway, I am going to tackle that rear air, blowing hot problem. I noticed that when I took the panel off, (it's still off) the rear air control knob has two vac lines coming off the back of it. The white one has been cut. I guess that could be my trouble huh?? I guess I'll see. I have another length of that a vac line. I'll let you guys know how it went.
