Introduction To Heater, A/C And Ventilation Diagnosis

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Air is drawn into the heater assembly from either the outside, or from the inside of the passenger cabin if DEFROST, maximum cooling or RECIRCULATION are selected. The air is then forced through the evaporator where heat is removed, cooling and de-humidifying the air. Depending on the temperature selected, a portion of this air is then forced through the heater core to achieve the selected discharge temperature.

If the system does not cool properly, look for a problem with the refrigerant, blower or air distribution systems. If the system does not heat properly, look for a problem with the coolant, blower or air distribution systems. In either case all system fuses, circuit breaker and relays should be checked.
