A/C not blowing in front, only when moving. Rear, ok.
I have a 2005 Chevy Tahoe. 58k miles. A/C worked perfectly until recently. Ok, So here is the problem. It started in late July. I have yet to take it in. I would like to see if this is something that I can repair myself. When the problem started, the front a/c would kick on only when it wanted to. Then about a week after this, the front a/c went out entirely. It only blows cool air when the truck is moving and if its NOT n recycle. The controls do not work either. The a/c and controls for the back passengeres work just fine. I do not know where to begin! lol Please help me!

Sounds like the main blower motor is shot. I believe the rear HVAC is on a separate blower. Does the defroster work? You're getting air while moving because it's being forced in when the control in on fresh air.

Thanks for your reply! I have to double check, but I THINK the defroster does work.. Ill have to re-post tomorrow a.m. to confirm this. Yes, that makes sense that I only get air while moving. Its cool air. like having a/c, just not blowing hard and no control. Do you this this may be a vacuum hose leak? Thanks!

I checked it, and it actually DOESN'T work. So you're probably right. I think I may take it in next week. It's under extended warranty. I will let the mechanics know to check the main blow motor.

None of the speeds worked. The screen displays its on max A/C. It doesnt respond to anything.
