Climate control question

[TurboLexus]

I had noticed that if I set my climate ctrl to one click back from full hot (89deg) it will wait to start blowing until the motor is warm enough to provide heat, but if I set it to full hot (90deg) it will blow on full regardless of whether heat is available yet, basically blowing cold air until the motor is warm.
Does everyone's function like this?

Doesn't sound normal to me. Sounds like either you have a bad climate control board or a bad resistor. I would lean toward a bad cc board. If you're willing to pull the board yourself (it's not that hard), you can have them rebuilt for under $200. Member briank does them.

good luck

I think what he described was normal operation, he doesn't need to repair it.

Can anyone else confirm for sure that this is normal operation?

Thanks.

I would say its normal :smile: but I would be happy to do a rebuild on the board just to be sure $$ :wink: $$

Sorry, from your original post, it sounded like the dreaded "fan only works on high" symptom. Don't want to mislead you.
