Hey Guys,
Have this 2011 Sonata, here is the deal.
The AC works most of the time, but sometimes it will blow warm for an entire trip. Then I start it up and it works fine the next trip.
Took my wife to the movies last night, it was about 99 degrees outside and it was warm the entire 20 minute trip.
I thought it may be condenser fan, but this model appears to have one fan ,and its coming on fine. Car not overheating.
Before that it has been working fine, except one friday coming home from work it didn't run most of the trip (30 minutes, mostly highway).
I'm an IT guy not a mechanic, and I have done ok just throwing parts at this car before.
I purchased an OEM evaporator temp switch sensor for about $20 on ebay, should be here by Tuesday.
It seems to be easily replaced in the passenger footboard.
I also cleaned the front of the condensor with simple green and water, it was not too bad to start with, so I don't think that is the problem.
Put my hand on the high and low side, one is hot one is cold.
Cabin filter is new and clean.
Any other thoughts?
Thanks,
JH
