[DML] Re: Another AC Problem

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

You haven't provided enough info yet to know what "no cold air" 
really means but, it sounds like the vacuum motor that operates the 
recirculation door is either not working (read leaking vacuum) or 
the small hose that operates the motor has come loose. It is not 
that difficult to locate and check. You can always seal-off the line 
if the motor is bad. Take off the motor and hold the door open with 
a piece of string or wire while you order a new vacuum motor. Seems 
like I used a rubber band once too.

There are about a million other things that could be wrong too but I 
would start there.
