A/C evaporator for 2000 Wrangler...
Just got back from the shop. My a/c is blowing hot and I am missing the
middle two fan speeds. They told me they'd have to order the main piece for
the fan speed from the dealer. Said it should cost about $150 installed.
This sound about right?
The big hit is that they say I have a slow freon leak somewhere. They put
some dye in the system so they can find the leak next time I'm in. They said
it is probably the evaporator. As I understand it, these things are rather
expensive to replace. Any ideas to save some money?
Thanks.

The fan speeds are most commonly the resistor:

I would gladly pay someone else a grand to replace the evaporator:

Jason,
You can buy just the 4-way switch from the dealer for about $14.00.
You don't need the whole control board. Takes all of 20 minutes to
change. Don't know about the evaporator.

Re: A/C evaporator for 2000 Wrangler...
Thanks for the advice. Any idea where I can get the instructions for
replacing the switch? I'm no mechanic so I hope it's very easy. :-P
