So my 2012 equinox that I just bought couple months ago came with a problem that carmax can't seem to fix. Every time the car gets wet from either car wash drive through, hand wash, and rain the ac stops working. Then on the radio/ac control unit displays -40 degrees when its 85 degrees outside. Later on last night I found a plug just hanging behind the front bumper and license plate. On the old equinox that area is where the ambient outside air temp sensor is located but im not sure on this model. Looked under to see where it could be connected by had no luck. The color of the wires to where the plug is disconnected are greenand white. Need to know if this may be the issue. Thnx
I'm sorry to hear about this A/C concern in your Equinox. If you would like to take this into the dealership, and have this looked into, I would be happy to assist. Please send me a PM with your VIN, mileage, contact info and a preferred dealership, so I can better assist? Thanks!
My AC says -40 degrees when it’s burning up outside
Hi,
Si I’m wondering if this is a common thing and has an easy fix. The AC was fine and Then on the radio/ac control unit displays -40 degrees when its 85 degrees outside the “drive with caution roads may be icy” alarm came on then the AC started blowing really hot.
