Kev.O Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I was out driving today with the heater on. As the car warmed up I slowly turned the heat down. Once I turned the dial to as cold as it would go I tried the air conditioning but it wouldn't work! Does anyone have any ideas? After doing a few searches I'm preying it's not the matrix!

toyotasuprauk Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 I dont know but it sounds more like a problem with the controls than the matrix? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

domdotcom Posted April 5, 2006 Share Posted April 5, 2006 I was out driving today with the heater on. As the car warmed up I slowly turned the heat down. Once I turned the dial to as cold as it would go I tried the air conditioning that came on, but it STILL was HOT !!!! I have recently put a modified air intake on, and put two cold air intakes as well, and it is still HOT!!!!!! I am asking you because you seem to know more than others about this than any others on this matter! Please help and reply!? Many thanks Dom.

Kev.O Posted April 5, 2006 Author Share Posted April 5, 2006 My problem was a loose connector behind the heater controls. Have you had the dash out recently?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ardasaliah Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 Its not your matrix- so you can relax a little. Sound like the heater control flap, which directs air to the matrix when heat is required- and away from the matrix when cold is required. This might be stuck in the hot position. Try this With the ignition on setting two- just before the engine is started where all electrics work. Turn the heater temperature control from cold to hot. Listen out for a small a buzzing sound. If you don’t hear it then the flap motor or the connections to the flap motor may be damaged. Not a major problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a major problem. Nope there is a small buzz/motor sound coming from that area, i have been told to put/make/get a heat shield to place between my aftermarket air intake and the main fan of the car....
