So first of all, let's make sure we determine what you actually have going on there. Is it blowing out hot air like heat or is it just not cooling? Because there is a little bit of a difference. If it's hot, like it's heat, then there's a good chance that, there's some doors inside of your dash that control hot and cold then you could have a problem with an actuator that controls that door or the door itself.
Now if that's working, so you can control hot and cold, but you're not getting cold air, then you probably have a problem with the refrigeration system. So either your compressor's not coming on or you are low on Freon or something like that. So there's a number of different directions we have to go depending on what's going on there. We do have some videos that kind of tell you how to do some quick checks that might help you pinpoint that, we will link those below.
So there's what you got. You either have the heat on or you have a problem with the refrigeration system not making it cold. I hope it's been informational to you and until next time, safe travels and blessings to you!
