  • this is to fix the problem of Air not blowing through the vents. AC is cooling fine and Heating is working too. The only problem is air is not blowing through vents.
    If this does't fix the problem and the absence of flow it comes back every time you drive the car, after few minutes or 1 hour, then the problem could be the heater core and AC condenser...much worse situation...

    I have a 2015 VW Passat TDI with 100K mi. The shop was ready to pull the dash to replace the actuator. I estimate it would have a been about $1,000 job. We both agreed to hold off while we did more research. I found this video and wala!! It worked like a charm. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!

      @@connallykendrick9350 When the vehicle is started with the climate control fan on the highest setting or “max” it was cause some of the “doors” inside the heating/AC vents to stick and left me with dash air from the two outer most dash vents. None of the other settings would work in getting it back to normal. It still happens to this day if I am careless at start-up, but when it does I use this self-diagnostic to get them all to work normally again. Sometimes I have to use this feature 10, 20, 30 times for it to work. Very frustrating.

      @@dennisbutler349 geez.... That's insane. Seriously inconvenient I'm sure. Thank you for the reply there! Fiance has a 2016 Passat that's cold on the passenger side when heat is on. I had the issue with my truck and it was the blend door actuator. Pulled it apart and rebuilt it. I'm not sure where the one is on the passenger side in a Passat, but I'm betting that's the issue here too

    VWs have a common issue with A/C fan blowing but no air coming out vents due to a faulty A/C control solenoid. Part is available on eBay for ~$17 and shop will charge $300 to $400 to replace.

    If its all vents that are acting weird, does this calibrate work for everything? Or do you need to select the vent that arent working. For example here you gold down the front vents and AC, do you also need to hold down the floor vents and AC to set those?
    Thanks for the walkthrough!

      @@crifix. we’ll check the relay, thanks. We checked the connector to sensor in compressor, it’s getting ~4.5v & ~ 1 amp. I read it should be .6 -.8 amp but multimeter is kind of cheap so we’re not sure if it’s accurate. My understanding is if the sensor isn’t getting that spec it’s upstream from it(like high pressure sensor/switch) but if it’s getting that spec then it’s the compressor control sensor. Still though we’d like to be sure before replacing it.

    I have bought a used vw golf 7 1.6 tdi 105hp 2014 model. The last 5 days i am hearing a sound like liquid is running through pipes in the dashboard. Also i hear the sound before i start the engine (for 30sec), as i drive (all the time i am driving) and when i turn off the car again for 30sec. Do you have a solution for that please; Thank you.
