Good Day all
I have a 2009 Jeep Liberty and I have an issue with my HVAC system. The driver side blows cold air and the passenger side blows hot air.
This is what I have done so far:
1. I have determined that its not an Actuator Issue, as the passenger side will rotate between Defrost, Feet and Vents without any issues and so will the driver side but it blows cold on all stages.
2. I have ready in one forum that the heater core may be the issue, but I have good heat on the passenger side. I also flushed the heater core and passed compressed air threw the system just to be safe.
3. I can press the circulating button to recirculate the cabin air and its hot on both sides as you would think.
4. I have Re-calibrated the doors.
5. No faults on any actuator as per the scanner.
So I have concluded that a blend door in the HVAC unit is either broken or stuck. I know the whole dash has to be open to properly fix it and that's an 8 hour project and I have ham hocks for hands.
What I need to know is the junk yard fix, I've seen some post of people opening a hole in the side of the box behind the glove box; but this was for a Grand Cherokee. Has any one done this for a 2009 Jeep Liberty? or do you have any other thoughts of what might be going on.
