Year: 1992
Make: Mercedes-Benz
Model: W124 - 230 CE
Engine: 2.3L
Air Con: None
At the mo I have intermittent/no heat. Here's the problem. If I set the control wheels to the warmest setting (fully red) and switch the fan on full the air gradually gets colder and colder.
If I blow it onto the screen it starts out quite hot then stays luke warm for a bit but eventually gets very cold.
If I select floor that starts out lukewarm and then gets colder quicker and eventually all the vents end up blowing just cold air.
If I leave the fan on position one I get a trickle of warm-ish air almost all the time. The inlet/outlet pipes into the matrix are too hot to touch as is the metal pipe running behind the dash.
The sensor vacuum pump behind the glove box is spinning but doesn't seem to be drawing in any air as it won't hold a bit of tissue on the other end of the pipe (I removed the light and pulled the vacuum pipe off and did the tissue test).
With the car running if I move the control wheels I can't see the flap control level arm move at all on the air distribution box.
Duovalves are hot up/down stream and their bodies are too.
Any ideas how to fix this?
I'm just cold!
