Solution

1. Preparation

• Gather necessary tools and parts.
• Disconnect the battery to ensure safety while working on electrical components.

2. Cabin Air Filter Replacement

• Locate the cabin air filter access panel (usually under the glove compartment).
• Remove the screws or clips securing the panel and take it off.
• Extract the old cabin air filter and replace it with a new one.
• Reassemble the access panel securely.

3. Blower Motor Inspection/Replacement

• Remove the dashboard panel to access the blower motor.
• Disconnect the electrical connector from the blower motor.
• Unscrew and remove the blower motor from its housing.
• Test the blower motor with a multimeter to ensure it operates correctly.
• If defective, replace it with a new blower motor and reassemble the dashboard.

4. Inspect Heating Core and Hoses

• Check for leaks around the heating core and hoses.
• Ensure that the hoses are securely connected and not blocked.
• If a blockage is found, flush the heating core with a suitable coolant flush solution.
• Replace any damaged hoses.

5. Verify HVAC Control Module

• If previous steps do not resolve the issue, inspect the HVAC control module for faults.
• Remove the module from the dashboard and check for damaged connectors or circuit board issues.
