My a/c will not work. 1996 Mazda B2300 I have checked the fuse, it is charged, and the compressor will cycle on and off, but it will still blow hot air. I have been told it might be a switch under the dash, but my heat works. When all is off there isnt any thing blowing, as should be. Anybody have any insight on what it could be?

CHECK THE ACTUATORS THAT MOVE THE BLEND DOORS INSIDE THE UNIT---RIGHT NOW THEY BE STUCK/ AT "DEFAULT" ACTUATOR BROKE/ (I'M GENERICALLY SPEAKING---I DON'T KNOW IF YOURS USES VACUUM OR ELECTRIC MOTORS OR BOTH. ONE MAY BE LACKING "VACUUM OR POWER")

A GOOD PLACE TO FIND THIS STUFF THAT OTHERS HAD A PROBLEM WITH TOO, IS "YOU TUBE"

ONCE YOU GET TO "THEIR SEARCH BOX" INSTALL "1996 Mazda b2300" THEN TRY THESE OR COMBINATIONS OF THESE WORDS BE SIDE IT "HVAC/ BLEND DOOR/ A/C / HEATER/ ETC"

I HAVE GOOD LUCK FINDING REALLY GOOD INFO THAT WAY, IT ALSO GIVES ME AN IDEA OF THE "SEVERITY" OF DOING THE NEED EXPLORATORY SURGERY TO FIX IT

IF "ADVANCE AUTO PARTS" IS AVAILABLE TO YOU AND YOU MUST BUY PARTS $30 OR MORE---I CAN SHOW YOU HOW TO SAVE SOME SERIOUS BUCKS. THIS SAME TECHNIQUE MAY WORK SIMILARLY AT OTHER STORES TOO. LEMME KNOW IF YOU NEED THIS INFO
