heater issues

Hi, I got heater issues with my RX8, all the control ***** and buttons seems to work but I only get small amounts of air blowing thru the vents ???

I can hear the blowers go from low to high as I turn the ***** but nothing hardly anything comes out of the vents…

Help please

Is your airflow set to recirculate, vs. pass through?

If you are talking about the dash vents; is the "MODE" button set to the "face" position?

Check the cabin filters behind the glove compartment, they are cleanable.

Check the DIY section for info on changing the filters; then check the ducting to the vents and the servos after you check the filters.

If there is no dead rat or clogged air filters.... then maybe the soldier joints are broken on the ****(s). There are threads about it and how to fix.
