NC Constant A/C

alright so i did a quick search and cant find anyone having the air conditioning stay on. Ever since i got the a/c belt changed now all it does is blow cold, no matter what settings its on what-so-ever.

any suggestions on how to fix this? or where to look?

Thanks in advance!

Yes there is a known problem with the AC. Basically it will only read on or off. There is a 1 - 16 programmed into the AC control module.

Go over this thread first

tell us what happens after you do the procedure to check the controls.
