I apologize if this is not appropriate to ask in this forum. My other vehicle is a 1997 Mustang GT, and I think it has all the symptoms of the broken blend door in the plenum[ie: warm air instead of airconditioning] dealt with here with the great fix posted. When it first occured I noticed some resistance in the cold-hot knob, making me think it is the same defect. Does anyone know if this is also a problem in the Mustangs of that year, or should I look elsewhere for the problem?

You may want to check the vacuum lines from the controls to the door. It would be a good place to start.
 






Thanks for the tip, I will look at that tomorrow. :)
 






OK, it turned out to be the clutch in my compressor. I took it to my friend the tech foreman for a shop. Let me know if anyone wants to know how he diagnosed it. Thanks again Horseplay for your efforts.
 






Anytime, just glad you found out what the problem was!
