If its heat you want and not ac.. try disconnecting the ac compressors power lead..this will shut that pump off..then no cold air will come in unless its set for vents..but still not that cold..

tip

Climate control settings,on all vehicles

When using the ac on a hot summer day,or a mild spring day,the compressor runs all the time.If you set it to low,and turn the temp to cold or toward the warmer side,lets say cool,then the ac compressor runs also,it just cycles,on,and off.No matter what setting you are using on your ac control,the ac compressor stays on,using fuel.Get the most out of your ac,while it uses your fuel,to keep you comfortable.All vehicles have a MAX setting,or a recirculate setting.Always use this setting.I say,always use this setting,not only that,but use this setting.I stress this because you are pulling in air ,from the out side,that is warming the evaporator,and making the ac work harder to give you comfort.In the hot ,hot summer,the settings MAX,and recirculate,keep the air that is in the vehicle,in the vehicle.It recirculates the air,instead of bringing hot air inside the vehicle ,and bringing the temp,up,to a warmer temp.A lot of people don`t even know that this is on the control,or don`t know what it is for.Some times the recirculate button,or dial,will have a picture that looks like a C,but squared off at the corners.So folks,get more out of your vehicles cooling and heat system.Yes ,this will work on heat also,maybe not defrost,but on some cars,it will work.

2010 Ford Escape had it diagnosed by someone I think knows about AC. He says no ON getting to MAX AC button. Any quick fix he thought he may be able to put a toggle and wire?

Why not get it fixed correctly? The max AC activates the compressor but also changes the setting on where the air comes from so that it recirculates. The AC also runs when the defrost is set to on. So it you are having a control issue, get the proper control installed.

Ac not working

Might be your AC clutch isn't kicking in(actuating).OR you might not have enough refrigerant in the system to tell the low-pressure cut-off to actuate the clutch.
Staying clear of the engine with any loose clothing, look down at the AC compressor while someone starts the engine and turns the dial from OFF to MAX air and you should be able to see the pulley end of the compressor grab and start pumping.
If it doesn't,it could need more refrigerant,but more likely it is a blown AC fuse or circuit breaker.There is sometimes a row of relays in a box in the engine compartment.They occasionally need replaced just like a fuse. don-ohio (:^)

Toyota Avalon 1998 A/C Push Button

If when button is pushed in it stays in the AC-light lights up, then you may have another problem like a leak in the system N0/low Freon in system and AC would n't work. But if the switch doesn' t stay push in when its pushed then the switch is BAd and needs to be replace and that will solve the problem. If the switch stays push in with NO AC light on then you may have a bad Ac fuse. Good luck and thanks for using Fix Ya

Flashing lights

Hi, had the same problem today. Solution: Start engine, blower on max, air direction to cabin, press rear wiper and rear wash buttons simulanteously for 5 seconds (all lights now on steady). Calibration test starts and lights flsh alternately. After first test, AC and recurculation lights flash for the cool down test. If all test pass then rear wiper light blinks slowly (press to exit self test). If AC and recurculation test fails then just 2 lights stay on. To repeat this part of the test press just AC and rear wash simulanteously ( may take several attempts and usually best when engine is cold). Again exit by pressing the rear wiper button once it is the only one flashing (slow blink).

This does work but it took me 15 minutes to finally switch them off!!!
