Car Forum / Driving, Maintenance, Tuning / 4x4 Cars / June 2007Evaporator Jeep XJ
Just had the evaporator and heater block replaced 00' XJ. $525. The guy literally had to ripout the dash etc. Took him over 8 hours. Freezing now but just noticed AC or heat won't blow out under the dash, only from vents or defrost! I'm gonna take it back but do you think he'll have to go through all of this again to correct it? Is there some flap/door down there? Electric, cable? Just wondering as i'm really not too excited on a second dashboard surgery. Any thoughts? Thank you! > Just had the evaporator and heater block replaced 00' XJ. $525. The guy >literally had to ripout the dash etc. Took him over 8 hours. Freezing [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] >there? Electric, cable? Just wondering as i'm really not too excited on >a second dashboard surgery. Any thoughts? Thank you! I had the same thing done to my wifes 2000 XJ when it was less than a year old under warranty. When we first go it back it had duct routing issues too. They took it back for several days and finally fixed it. It seem that they got the control lines messed up and finailly wound up taking another one apart to figure it out (it does not say much for dealr does it) ----------------- TheSnoMan.com So they probably had to pull the dash again? This is a local shop. He's not gonna be too happy. Will he try to charge me??? > So they probably had to pull the dash again? This is a local shop. He's >not gonna be too happy. Will he try to charge me??? Why should they even think about charging you when they just had it apart and obviously did not put it back together correctly. Be firm and tell them that this problem did not exist before they "repaired" it. ----------------- TheSnoMan.com Fixed today by mechanic, no hassle. Just a flap or door under the right side of dash. Blows great now...and SUPER cold too! At 55000 miles i just got it ready for many more miles. New axle u-joints, rear brakes, AC evaporater replaced, new heater core, all fluids changed including 4x4 and cooling. And a nice new set of BFG AT KO's from Costco! Or...what i did with my tax return! yes, if the cruise control also quit, it is a leaky vacuum line between the canister up by the grill or in that line someplace. repair the vacumn line and all is well.
