Try Auto Sport Engineering in Stow, MA. I've use him, and was very pleased. Reasonable and thorough.by JohnClap - Main Forum
Also, try putting the defroster on. If it blows hot, you know you have heat at the core, and that the temp control head unit is OK. That being the case, it's probably the heater flap control (actuator). It's the little motor under the dash with the pink lever. I had the same problem last winter, and switched everything in the system with no luck. Out of desperation, I took the actuator apart, cleby JohnClap - Main Forum
I think it does point towards one of the temp sensors. Everything else seems to check out. I hate to, but I may take it in and have it looked at. Thanks to all for your help. I'll let you know how I make out.by JohnClap - Main Forum
I have a hardtop on it, so the draftiness (?) isn't like when I just have the soft top. The heat has always worked well in the past. When I had it set at 70 degrees, it stayed around 70. Now I have to put it up to around 80 and after a few minutes the actuator closes a bit and you can feel it go colder. The cabin temp never gets anywhere near the selected temp. If I crank it all the way up to Higby JohnClap - Main Forum
Unfortunately, when the outside temp is in the teens like it is now, the compressor automatically switches off. I wonder if the climate control is somehow out of calibration?by JohnClap - Main Forum
Hello all. I have an issue that just recently popped up. After getting up to normal operating temperature I noticed that at my usual 71 degree wintertime heat temp setting, I stopped getting heat. If I crank it up to 78 or so, I can hear the actuator open and then I have heat, for a while. If I go to 80 degrees, same thing. The Interior Sensor Fan at the side vent is working fine, but can the senby JohnClap - Main Forum
