TJ Unlimited AC question
 
Hello All! Long time no post.

I have a 2004 Unlimited and it's doing a strange thing when running
the air conditioning. No matter if I have the directional knob on
recirculation or dash; I get air blowing on my feet. When I select Bi-
level the velocity of the air (on my feet) increases.

What's even stranger...my buddys TJ does the same thing. Anyone else
noticed this?

I would expect a broken vac line or return spring on the vac motor
that runs the doors. There are several motors that work as a team.
Don't have a 2004 diagram and I doubt the 93ZJ will be close.

My thoughts exactly, until another TJ did the exact same thing.
Anyone out there have a TJ they can test? Set the AC to anything
execpt bi-level, turn it on high and feel down next to your feet.

Regards to all.

I have a 05 TJ that had similar issues.

If you look under the forward console where it blows from the lower
vent directly at the driver foot, there is a flap that is "easily"
disjointed from its hinges, even a slight kick can dislodge the
directional blade. See if you can move it back and forth freely.
Mine was actually off the hinges. It is a real PITA to get back on as
you must have very small hands to get it back in, in fact you must
also be a contortionist. I had to have my son do it. I'm to big, and
I'm not a big guy.

Also there is a vacuum line in that same vicinity, make sure it is
connected. I let my son play in my jeep, and he must have pulled it
out and banged the directional flap. It is farily obvious to spot.

Hope this helps. Take care,
