A/c

ok so im not sure whats going on, when its cold out my a/c works fine when the speed is on 1 and 4 on the speed controll for the air, when it is hot out it only works on the 1 dial on the speed and doesnt work on any other speed, any help at all? do i just need more refrigerant but then why does it work when its cold fine on speeds 1 and 4 only. thanks for your help, sorry i dont know much lol

Oh snap!

MSPs have A/C?






j/k

Probably just overworking the system. The A/C system in this car is garbage. I forgot I even have A/C, I never use it, even in 100 degrees.

There is a resistor pack that is acting up I replaced mine and no more problems . I got one from a parts store rather than Mazda ,here is the info on the part
The resistor came in a Standard box (brand name) the number on the box is a RU332 resistor . The UPC # 0 91769 61800 1 Hope this helps guys

That really makes very little sense. First you should check you refridgerant, then check to see if the fan comes on then check the compressor. That not really particualar to you car though. Those are just common faults.

The heat exchanger is more effective when there is a big diference in "Heat"

When you make the inside Cold... All that extra heat (There is A LOT) ends up under your hood, if it's hot the heat exchange cant get rid of the heat as well, so it stays hot in your car at the same time that you are superheating your engine..

Do some research for it, i believe there is a TSB out for it. It is somewhere on the forums, and a rather common problem with the A/c control unit. It has started to me....starts with 2 going out then 3 then 4, and all you are left with is 1.

ok im going to check all my stuff then go from there i was just wondering if this was normal for our cars thanks again.

I'm pretty sure it's the resistor pack that was mentoned earlier. Seen it happen on my girl's ford focus before too. The fan would only come on 1-3 with no a/c then on 4 the blower wouldn't work at all.

So was it the resistor pack? Mine is doing the same thing. I know it's getting colder now but I still would like to now how to fix it. Anybody?
