Just wondering if anyone have similiar problems with the F/L. Prevously my temp settings were at 24 and it was cold air. Nowadays even at night, 24 it will blow out warm air. Have to set to 22 in order to achieve cold air. Is that a sign that my A/C is dying.... :(
-
if the aircon can blow out cold air ,the comp. is fine .maybe the sensor ba.
-
I hope so as well

hi!
wat i notice mine is when the weather is cold, the aircon not so cold leh. think mayb the sensor playing trick ba :confused1:
-
I experience it b4. Send to TC to reset your aircon, it works for me.
Our aircon is digital, so i guess need to reset it periodically? Like the way we reset our PDA which hangs occasionally :confused1:

It is not the sensor playing trick....it is the function of the sensor.....our car is JDI cars hence comes with a heater function for winter.....when you set a temperature lower than outside, it will blow cold air and when you set the temp higher than outside...it will become a heater and blowing hot air....so on cold days....set your temperature setting lower so that it will not be higher than outside temp...... :D
-
I did realised that whenever the difference between amb and preset temp is less than 2 degrees, the a/c would blow out warm air. However if the difference is more than 2 degrees is fine.
For example, recently outside temp is ard 25 and set temp is 24 I'm getting wram air. Worst of all recently even if the difference is more than 2 degrees, at my pevious preset of 24 I'm still getting warm air. :glare:

hi Toalson
should turn on the A/C button right?
-
hi Toalson

Yo Bro,
You are funny. :clapping:
-
hi Toalson

Wat do u take me for? :glare:
-
Just did some trials and realised the problem with A/C only happens when using the climate control but when using the fan directly at 24 it still blows out cold air. Maybe that is also the reason why my SE told me to stay away from using the climate control. Anyone using the climate control and did not encounter the problem?

eh, sori har. wat is climate control har? our car got such function button har :confused1:

I think he is referring to the auto button in the air-con control.

Side track a little:
I was driving with the windows down and aircon ON for a while. After that i wind up the window and white 'smoke' come out of the air vent, after a short while it stops. Anyone can describe this phenomenon?
-

Indeed it is....when you use the AUTO button on the climate control....the sensor in the
A/C will base on the temp u set against the temp outside & temp inside the car to decide the fan speed and cold or hot air to be blow.....but if u dun use the AUTO button and manually set the fan speed and temp, i think as long as the temp u set is below 26deg, cold air will always blow out irregardless of temp inside and outside the car......

my latio aircon is behaving quite funny recently ...
sometimes when i start the aircon , blowing direction is from bottom ... :confused1:
the day b4 i remember i didnt change any settings of the blowing direction. :confused1:
this problem is occasionally ... happen like once per week..
another problem i encounter is the temp sensor ...
seems like hay wire liao... yesterday i check once its 43DegC !! :confused1:
something wrong with the temp sensor liao ??
temp sensor is inside cabin rite?
-
How to see that the temp is 43deg? Yours is FL? If FL, then there should be a button labelled as AMB....and is referring to ambient temp which is the outside temp...i dun think the a/c control shows the temp inside the car....for pre-FL, the temp on the control always show the temp set by you.....

There is nothing wrong with the blowing direction. Your aircon must be set at auto, when in auto mode, the aircon sensors inside the car will try to achieve the temp that you had set, and same time the different sensors inside the car will direct the air flow to blow at different places, to achieve maximum comfort for the passengers in the shortest possible time. This feature is very useful in countries with four seasons, where hot/cold air blowing thru ducts at the deskboard or feets, not only directly at passengers.
Your aircon will automatically change the air flow back to directing at passengers once it reach certain temp. You can deactivate this feature by turning to manual. In maunal mode, the air flow will not slow down even the aircon has reached the temp you had set.
I agreed the temp sensor for outside is not accurate. I have the same problem. I believe is the placement of the sensor, must be too near to the heat source - engine bay, exhaust, facing the road surface or even the car metal body that indirectly transfer the heat to the sensor. Need to talk to TCM to understand where the sensor is located to conclude whether the sensor is faulty.

sorry to confuse u....yup ..i check by pressing the AMB key... it shows 43DegC.
i just check manual,yes, AMB means outside temp....but shldnt be 43Degc ..outside where got so hot.. ;)
-
When back to TCM last weekend and they couldnt find any problem with the AC thus they cheated by changing my setting to -3 degrees of the setting display. :out: This is so silly. So now I set at 27 degrees but occassionaly still not getting cold air... I give up on going back to TCM.
However, did notice that I can detect exhaust and external smell.... sianz have to go back to TCM again.

just collected my car jus 3 weeks ago...
I 2 noticed that all exhaust and external smell can be detected.... if you go to switch on the external air button...lagi worse = like open window....not sure if that is normal for a nissan.

It is possible...as your car can get heated up to a very high temp after a long day parking under the hot sun....and the sensor which is on the car is getting the same amt of heat the whole day might show a higher than outside temp....u need to drive off for about 5-10mins before checking the AMB temp again...and it will be more accurate....

So we both have the same problem... :glare:

i never have this problem. i always set to manual.
I like my temp to stay as what i set. if not cold enough, i set fan speed higher.
no smell at all unless i open vent which not advisable in local as pollution and smell of petrol, diesel from taxi can seap in.
