After getting the knobs replaced recently on my AC unit, the other fan seems to work differently and intermittently at best, and I can't figure it out.
I recently had the knobs replaced on my AC, both fan strength and coldness. They were loose and needed to be replaced I was told. It seem that these were fixed fine, although it seems to really kick in only once all the way turned, as it should I suppose, but I thought it would be much more incremental. In any event, seems that AC is fine, and blowing from the vents above.
However, now, and I'm not sure if related or not, the normal fan seems to be working much differently from before. If I recall correctly, the normal fan would blow from the center console if I had the vent on, and would blow harder as I moved the fan lever over to the right. But now, it seems that the center counsel only provides air as a vent, with no fan, unless the AC is on. When the fan is turned on, it will sometimes blow heat/cold air to the floor or windshield and more air if pushed to the right. However, I have noticed that sometimes the fan works while other times it does not appear to work, which makes no sense whatsoever to me.
So, my questions are:
-should the fan operate for the center counsel, separate from the AC fan?
-has anyone had problems with the fan for defog and floor working intermittently?
Completely unrelated I hope, I noticed that several of the "plugs" for lack of a better term, near and around the battery have nothing attached to them. I'm not sure if this is important. I will snap a picture.
Otherwise, besides a fairly short list of minor fixes, e.g. can't lock/unlock passenger door with key, door is not shutting properly, it is running great and no longer smoking or losing coolant.
The car is running 1000x better than it was last summer. I can easily redline it and it sounds/feels great all the way to redline. A blast to drive, and feels quite quick. No real complaints.
