Hello all! I have an 03 sahara I bought in july. Currently has 128K miles on the clock. When I bought the jeep, the dealer said they noticed the A/C wasnt working and they would have it fixed before I buy. So after a week, they said that the HVAC control panel and A/C compressor was bad, and they were replaced. The compressor was new, but the HVAC control panel was replaced with an 05 wrangler. When I picked it up, he said "Idk why, but the controls are backwards in a way, like face is really face and feet". I said okay, no problem. Havent had the time to figure it out, but today I spent some time looking into it. The vacumn lines are all good and sung. I even disconnected and reconnected them to make sure. So heres the problem im having.... I have realized that the controls arent neccessarily backwards, but I never get full face. I did some researching, and it might be the bleed actuator doors or a vacumn leak.

Off=Off
Recirculation works like it should

A/C face = face and feet
A/C face/feet = face and feet
Face= face and feet
Feet=feet
Defrost/feet= defrost and feet
Defrost=defrost

Is this normal? Or should I be getting 100% face like it says? Has this happened to anyone else? Any places to check? Thanks guys
 
Somebody just dealt with & resolved it in the last 2 days here. The ended up needing to replace the actuator, I think. You should get a full facial on those settings.
