Blowers won't go cold?

[Craig_t]

Can anyone help, I have a 02 plate 172 and my blowers have stuck on hot. I can adjust the temperature option down to min but they still come out hot, both with A/C on and A/C off...

any help would be appreciated.

Does it have climate control or the normal heater knobs?

climate control i assume as i have the buttons with a temperature screen. I had the dash board out on the weekend but I am sure that it blew cold after that. I had the dashboard out as just above the steering column and left there is a letterbox type thing where a part of the heater blower leaks water in and the previous owner tried sealing it with silicone. It was still leaking slightly so I put a bit more on around that opening. Not sure if that has any affect on it though as I don't know what that thing is for?

mine will only blow cold if my car goes above 50mph. any slower and the engine just warms the air up.

Likely to be the heater resister

Could be the flap control cog broken. Have a look at this thread, pics if you scroll down

A faulty resistor pack will effect the speed of the fan, not temp. The climate control fault is well documented on here and an easy repair. Had to do mine when I bought it.

Cheers fakeConcern I had a look into it last night and found that very same thing when doing a bit testing, all sorted now

Mines not clunking when I turn air con on, I've looked for the broken cog but it's all ok. Appears to be the leak I've got at the dryer /receiver on mine so might be worth checking you haven't lost gas resulting in the pressure switch not allowing the air con to kick in.
