Bad solenoid

 

Same problem
I lived with it for alittle while.
Couldn't bare it much longer in the NE. Fixed in 1 day at the dealer.

 

Carlos: Did you try the suggestion of turning the temp way up to max to activate the solenoid?

Yes I did, max, +85, a/c off .. Moved all vent positions.. Nice cold air haha, good thing Chuck this weather its been nice

 

This is why I like forums like this. I decided to take my 991 out for a Sunday drive today, only to find out once the systems were warmed up - one wasn't. Yep my heater decided to stop working. Blowing cold air on a cold day.

Frustrated but nice to see it should be a quick fix. I'm taking her in tomorrow for a front clear bra, polish and full CQuartz sealant. Guess I'll make an appointment for the dealer to fix the heat when get it back from the detailer Friday. Fingers crossed they fix the heat same day and I'll be back on the road by next weekend.

 

Suggest, you call the dealer and make sure they are in stock before you take it in. At the rate these things are failing, there may a parts procurement delay.

Oh I am - calling them tomorrow to explain what I feel the problem is. I won't be able to get it to them till the end of the week anyway so they should have time to get the parts in.
