Honda Car Forum

I have a 2004 Honda Pilot LX and seem to have a problem with the rear
AC/Heater. When the knob is turned to the left for cooling,
everything seems fine. However when the knob is turned to the right
for heat, there is no airflow. You can hear some air noise in the
console but nothing comes out.

Before I bug the dealer, I was wondering if anyone hear had any
advice.

THanks in advance!

Read your owner's manual.

Trust me.

You bought a $30,000 vehicle and haven't even bothered to crack the book
yet. You came here first and expect to be spoon-fed the answer.

Jesus.

Go check out www.hondapilot.org/www.honda-pilot.org. I believe there
was a TSB about this. Also, do a search for "rear heater" or "rear
vent" and you should be some hits.

What?? What would reading the manual do in this situation? The
poster said that when the knob is turned to the left, it functions
correctly, but when turned to the right, it doesn't seem to.

There still should be some airflow no matter which way the rear
climate control temperature control is turned. He can read the manual
until the cows come home, but won't solve his problem.

Thanks for the advice Steve, and don't mind Elmo. His penis envy
problem is showing again.
