Climate control
« on: 10 October 2008, 16:29:58 »
Brace yourselves another stupid question coming up  :-[
I am not even sure if it is a problem really, I have a 98 miniface lift CDX which has the climate control .
 With the climate set to its lowest setting LO and in auto mode cold air blows from all vents like a goodun ,this where I make an arse of myself  :D.
If I then leave the climate in auto and change the setting to the highest setting HI there is not the same output of air from the vents in fact it hardly seems to come from the center vent and the side vents but heat is getting in to the car .
I can hear the main fan running still to . If I then take the climate off auto and run the fan at speed 9 and select flow direction ie face or feet or screen it blows out like a goodun again .
 Question is do I have a problem or is this normal  ::)

sounds right to me. Cold air blows out of the face level vents but when it warms the air it re-directs the flow to windscreen vents and footwell vents.
