The rear climate controls in the center consule on my 02 DeVille will not blow cold air! :rant2: Even if you put it at the coldest setting its warm air. Has anybody heard of this happening before? :confused:

Most likely a rear air mix door problem. Have you pulled the DTC's?
I have no idea what a DTC is.... Im fully capable of taking interor stuff apart tho, so if you can get into some detail Ill take a look.
DTC = Diagnostic Trouble Code. Pull the codes.

ahhhhh, ok. I think I bookmarked a thread on this forum that showed how to do it off the dash. Ill give it a shot, thanks!
OK. Sure as shit, here's the code....

IPM(instrument panel module) B0429 -"temprature control #3 rear circuit range/performance.


Now..... what do I do?? :bonkers:
I think that temp control actuator is under the dash on the passenger side. I had the same DTC but it did not seem to affect the rear temp so I told the dealer to leave it alone and I would monitor it even though it is under warranty. If yours is not working at all, I guess you'll have to replace that actuator. A FSM will come in handy.

you are right, I need to watch ebay for one.
Took me about 9 months to snag a set. They where far and few between and went for high prices. Maybe '02's are more plentifull. Happy hunting.
