Ford F-150 (2009-2014) :: 2010 XLT - Blower Control - When In Floor Air Keep Going To Windshield

In the last few weeks I have noticed that when I have the control set to floor only (manual system, not dual) I still have more air going to windshield than the floor. I can switch to Windshield/Floor, Center Vent and all seems ok. Just when in floor only it seems to keep going to Windshield. Asked the service rep at last oil change and he said it's normal for some air to always go to the windshield/defrost. I'm going back to dealer and check a new F150 XLT to verify I have a problem.

Ford 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel :: Windshield Defrost And Floor Vents Won't Work

No matter what I do with the settings for my heater in my lariat air only blows out of the dash vents. Defrost and floor vents don't work it still blows hot air out of the dash vents. I'm not sure what the deal is maybe the vacuum system? I did a search and all I could find was people having trouble with air ONLY blowing out of the defroster and my case is just the opposite.

Monte Carlo :: Heat On Floor Mode - AC Compressor Clutch Is Engaging

I recently purchased a 2005 Monte Carlo, it has the 3.4l V6. I live in Pa. and like others our winter has been real cold, I was waiting to pick up my wife from work the other day, while sitting in the car i was changing the heat selections from defrost to floor to bi-level and realized that the A/C compressor clutch is engaging when the selector is on defrost and floor, it disengages on bi-level. I know that it is supposed to engage on defrost. Is it normal for this car to activate the A/C on floor? if so it is a first for me.

Lexus GX 2004-09 :: Windshield Wipers Go Into Intermittent Mode When Stopped?

Okay, to start i've disconnected my rain sensor so i do not have auto wipers, instead the wipers are intermittent when in the first, AUTO, position. with that being said....

When I was driving and had the LOW wiper position selected (not AUTO) and the wiper speed dial set to (-) , when the car comes to a stop or is parked, the LOW wipers switch to intermittent where they will pause in the (-) dial setting, for about 2.5 seconds. if the dial is set to (+) you do not notice this happening as the wipers re-engage too quickly. and then once you start moving again, the wipers return to the LOW setting and run continuously.

Does it also happen when your rain sensor still works? My guess is it's a luxury function so when you are nto moving, less rain hits the water, and you don't have to deal with wipers on a drier windshield making the low squeegee noise.

Camry 2012+ :: Floor Vent Only Mode Doesn't Put Out Much Heat - 60F Coming Out Of Bottom

I've had this 2012 SE I4 for about 6 months, but since it has been cold, I've noticed that when switching heat to floor vents only mode, that most of the air still flows through the upper vents (I'd estimate about 50% still flows through the upper vents).

I've taken a thermometer and read 80F coming out of top vent and about 60F coming out of the bottom.

When driving my face/body feel like they are on fire but feet still remain cold. Took to the dealer and they said there is a temp/and airflow difference but appears normal.

If this is normal, it is totally different than any other car I've owned. Does most of the air still come out of the upper vents when on floor vent only?

Prius (Gen 2) :: Red Triangle Remains After HV Battery Swap?

I have an 07 and replaced the HV battery. Before swapping battery, I had Red Triangle, (!), VSC, Check Engine (took car to dealer who diagnosed it as needing HV battery). Now new battery is in but error-icons remain. The LCD display shows battery as more that half-charged. I connected an old Actron ODB2 scanner (circa 2000), but it doesn't Read any codes and doesn't Erase the codes causing the problem.

Prius C :: Cigarette Adapter Lighter Always Remains On

I just bought a 2012 Prius 3 and sold my wife's BMW 3. I still have my X5 though and one of the convenience I'm missing in the Prius is having the cigarette lighter adapter always supplying power even though the ignition is in 0 position and key out of the socket as in my X5.

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Bluetooth Always Remains Connected

Just got my Prius III last week and I've noticed that every time I leave the car, the bluetooth on my phone shows its still connected, even though the car is off and I'm no where near it. What's worse is that when I return to the car, it doesn't reconnect. So I'm not sure if its the phone or the car. I had bluetooth in my Tacoma for years and it worked fine, so it has to have something to do with the car. Its a Droid 4.

Gen 3 Prius (Audio/Electronics) :: Clock Is Always Remains Off An Hour

As others have mentioned, changes you make to the time don't stick. My clock is always off an hour. Someone suggested changing the time zone setting to compensate for this. I've tried multiple time zones and the clock is always off an hour (either fast or slow).

Prius (Gen 3) :: 2010 EV Mode Will Not Work / Throttle In PWR Mode

I have a concern about my 2010 Prius V(five). I've noticed some issues lately that may all tie in to one big problem.

1. My ev mode will not work at all. My battery will be fully charged and not in "B" mode. Turning car off and on will not work.

2. Engine will not turn off when coming to stops. Mind you when the battery is above 3 lines.

3. Throttle response feels like it's in PWR mode(super sensitive) but the engine is leggy. If I floor it for a sec the RPMS are super slow to come down.

4. The Eco line is quick to go in PWR portion and I'm not pushing it any harder than I was before all of this started. It seems like when I push the gas it skips the electric and automatically pulls from the engine.
