Hey gang-
My 88 XJ has a new issue today. For a while now, whenever I turned the AC on (been using it a while now in SoCal so far this year), I got a long low GROOOOOAAAAANNNN (like chewbacca from star wars) from the vents. It lasted abuot 10-15 seconds, then would stop for the most part. During the whole thing, the air would blow out fine and it was cold and there was plenty of it.
So today I put the ac on high/max, and got....a bit cooler, but no air blew out from the vents. No matter what I slid the switch to: high/med/low or hot/cool or defrost, etc, I got no air. It DID get cooler in the cabin, as the air came out of the lower half of the vents that are used whenever I use the DEFROST setting. So I know the AC works, and it cools, it just ain't blowing out of the dash vents.
Any thoughts? Could it be something behind the dash? Or under the hood? I hope I won't have to yank that PITA dash panel off again, but I'll listen to anything at this point.
Thanks-
