A/C problem
I'm having a problem with the A/C.
A/C seems to work great, until I stop the Van and turn off the engine. If restarted within several minutes, the A/C cycles between hot and cold air.
This may continue for several minutes or longer while driving. If I stop and turn off the engine and let the Van sit for a couple of hours, the A/C works OK, again.
This only seems to happen if the van is turn off for a short period, like if I stop for gas, and then continue on my way with the A/C on.
I have a climate control system in this van. When the problem is happening, and I set the climate control to auto, I can see the fan speed control changing from high to low and back and the air diverter changes from vents to floor and vents and back. It's likke it has a mind of it's own.
The temepure display always shows low, but like I said it blows cold then hot air, the cold again, and cycles like this for awhile.
Thanks
