I have a 2000 Durango SLT 4x4 5.9 with 92000. My AC only blows cold when i turn on the rear air conditioner. Anyone else ever seen that? It's still not real cold, so i'm suspecting it needs some freon. Any suggestions?
Yep, she's low. I tried to spend the money on all the gauges and stuff to do it myself with crappy results. Go get a good refill at a shop. It should cost around $99.
The rear air is re-cooling the air your front vents are blowing, that's why it feels cool there and not up front. The rear air setup changed for '01-'03 and they get the air sent to back vents just like our 2000 front vents. Their back vents are on the side and top but not in a seperate air conditioner unit like our 2000s are. I *think* '98s & '99s were the same as our 2000s FWIW.
UPDATE. The electrical fan isn't working.... Man these things are expensive. Does anyone have suggestions are far as taking the shroud off? or has anyone ever done this, and has some pointers..
How much is the e-fan you're replacing??? It might be worth it to you to just upgrade to a viper fan then you can ditch the clutch fan too and get some horsies and mpg out of it. [8D]
I replaced the electric fantoday, the clutch fan was fine. Took about 1 hr to swap them out. The electric fan brand new from Dodge is over $300.. I found one in a junk yard for $80. All is working good now.
