No defrost

From CEM to VEM, from LED to lightbulb and more. If you have an electrical problem, like a broken info-centre, search for answers in this category. This is also the place to be when you expect the problem to be of an electrical nature...

No defrost

Post by Janet » Thu Nov 06, 2014 11:06 pm

There is something very wrong with my car. The air ventilation wont change directions no matter which button I press. The buttons and lights inside them works, but the airflow wont change. I really need the air to go up on the windscreen now!! :( :cry: Its a turbo -90 w. A/C

Janet can you hear any hissing from the VEM (the box with buttons on to control the direction of the air)?
