Where is this thing located? I have a 04 Stratus Sedan.

 

It's under the dash near the middle on the bottom of Hvac housing,what kind of problems are you having if its not working right could be body control module calibration,

 

Well, I had a collision and once they had the body work done they inform me that the blend door was not functioning and all you get out of the vents is warm air not cold air. The ac will cycle between defroster and every setting in between but it will not get cold, the AC compressor is running but no cold air. I was under the dash the other night and watched the motor spin when I turned everything on but I do not know what it looked like prior to the collision so I can't tell if the collision broke something or jammed a door shut. There are white parts that look like they sit on the wheel that spins and move the linkages I can't tell if they are supposed to look like they do and I cannot find a single picture of what its supposed to look like. The AC was working prior to the collision. The collision was a front end collision the air bags did not deploy but the radiator, condenser, hood and intake manifold got wrecked They did put a recycled radiator and condenser on the car wonder if something is wrong with that.

 

try unhooking battery(not sure which fuse m-1 would be) for at least 10 minutes,rehook battery start car let run for at least 5 minutes see if that helps .years 01-05 have a technical service bulletin heres a copy

THIS BULLETIN SUPERSEDES TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 24-002-04, DATED MARCH 30, 2004, WHICH SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM YOUR FILES . ALL REVISIONS ARE HIGHLIGHTED WITH **ASTERISKS** AND INCLUDES ADDITIONAL MODEL YEAR.
SUBJECT:
A/C and Heater Performance

OVERVIEW:
This bulletin provides diagnostic information for A/C and heater performance complaints.
MODELS:
1998 - 2004 (LH) LHS/300M/Concorde/Intrepid2001 - **2005** (JR) Sebring Convertible/Sebring Sedan/Stratus Sedan
NOTE :Perform Customer Satisfaction Notification no. 857, reprogram Powertrain Control Module (PCM), for 2000 model year LH-vehicles built prior to August 30, 1999 (MDH 0830XX).

SYMPTOM/CONDITION:
Erratic operation of the A/C and heater systems including:
^Lack of cold air
^Lack of hot air
^Unrequested mode change - Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) only)
^No control of mode or temperature control
^Tapping noise from blend door

The above Symptoms may be accompanied by the following Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs):
^Blend door feedback
^Blend door stall
^A/C control mode door input shorted to battery
^Mode door stall
^In car temp sensor failure ATC messages not received

DIAGNOSIS:
^Do not attempt to remove A/C control until after this entire Diagnosis and Repair Procedure has been performed.
^Verify customer reported symptom(s) if possible.
^Check for the presence of DTCs with the scan tool (DRBIII(R)) and record on the repair order. If a DRBIII(R) is not available reference the appropriate Service Manual - Heating and Air Conditioning "Self Diagnostics" procedure and record any present DTCs on the repair order. If Symptoms and/or DTCs other than those listed above are present, repair as necessary. If a Symptom(s) and/or DTC(s) listed above is present, perform the Repair Procedure.

REPAIR PROCEDURE:
1.With the vehicle at room temperature 10°- 27°C. (50°to 80°F.), remove the M-1 circuit fuse for ten minutes to erase DTCs.
2.Install the M-1 fuse and start the vehicle, this will initiate the HVAC system calibration. Allow approximately five minutes for the calibration to complete.
3.Operate the vehicle and HVAC system to verify that Symptoms and/or DTCs are gone. If tapping noise or Blend Stall/Feedback DTCs re-occur, additional diagnosis will be required.

 

Ok did this today, the M-1 fuse is the #5 fuse and its the only one with a special cage around it so it sticks out like a sore thumb. Anyway this did not work so something is physically wrong with the door or they didn't recharge my ac properly when they put it back together. I suspect something is wrong with the charge as it sounds like running water when the AC is turned on and it never sounded like that before so I guess I'll have to get back under there and see if the door is jammed and/or take it to someplace to have the system checked
