Climate Control got funny sound

[DT2001]

Hi guys,
I have this "krog krog' sound when i turn on the air-con and it's on and off thingy, some days yes some days not. Read fr OZ/NZ forum it's due to climate control motor servo contacting points being dirty and needs to be cleaned. Any body encountered this problem bef? Went to Vision last Sat but they couldn't hear the sound so kenot check, asked me to service the air-con instead:sad_smile:

Any advice is appreciated.

cheers

Hi,
Was there during lunch time, didn't look for Yong, d manager but one young chap (new i guess) came up to me. Yong used to tell me there's water inside the hose (for heater) he can get rid of the sound by just cut off/by pass the hose. Any other ways to do this probably like cleaning the contact points?

cheers

bro rinagi,

bypass the hose ?? I had the same suggestion by vision (like DT 2001's) to just cut the hose to make the sound go away ...

I'm having same problem with "krog krog" sound... even without turning on the aircond, the sound is there.. whenever I turned on the swith (before cranking engine) it starts to sound.. is this to do with climate control thingy?

u r having the exact prob fellows here having. it only take u 5-10 minutes to clean it. think u all can go together as to learn and clean it urself. charges at vision are very very expensive nowadays.

 

[bluedemon]

funny enuff, i experience the same sound just after cranking on the engine. i tot it was normal for altezza :_:

 

[DT2001]

Vision's charges has always been on the higher side, perhaps we could get Trial to check? we go together, can?

cheers

fellas ...

i have the same problem last time

went to trial and they spent half day to sort the problem out

u know what they found out, there were not enough fluid in the cooling system

just try to put in water to the tank at the back of the radiator

no more problem

tyr that

 

[RTS200]

bro jahax .. tried doin as suggested but the sound is still there ...

bro DT2001 ... if you're ok, let's go together to trial.. agreed with you that vision is killing ppl with their charges ....

 

[JayDM]

Could there be little creatures living inside the aircond vent??..LOL

Just kidding guys..

 

[martinchan]

same problem here... just don't bother it only...

but maybe we go vision by a group then we get discount ....... hehehehe....

 

[rinagi]

maybe like this.. u all come out tomorrow night and i'll show u guys how 2 deal with it while we finalize the logo that Lam created for our altezza club. how?

 

[RTS200]

see you there bro rinagi ....

Hi guys,

I had the same problem. The sound comes from somewhere between the aircond panel and the glove compartment. I checked with the guys in Singapore and one dude mentioned about the servo arm not properly lubricated. So, I removed the motor (it's in the glove box) and greased it. Now, no more sound at all!! To reproduce the sound, just try fooling around with the temp control.

 

[ashivadas]

Encountered similar problems. Then when i played around with the guage to the left of the aircon temp guage, then sound went away. Apparently it's to do with the air direction control mechanisms

However, the sound does come back again occassionally only ....then i adjust the gauge again....:shades_smile: hehe.

 

[JaHaX]

it seems like all of us encounter the same problem

do u know what, when i first encounter the problem, i thaught there was a mouse in my dashboard ... serious man ... hahahah ...

 

[Test]

Bro you don't talk cock here laa as you will get serious problem la if got mouse inside your car.:X-:

So now we confirmed that the problem is not as bad as what we thought before right..? Yes, It can be fixed! Thanks lot guys as im having the same problem.

 

[Z_Edition]

[RTS200]
