The Nissan Path

So I have the auto turn dial ac controls and the issue is I can turn the temp to far left cold and it blows cold and all is well. If I turn the dial one notch up (warmer) is goes from cold to hot not much variation between it and full hot. I am thinking it is a resistor of some sort or possibly the ac panel. It is a cheap part to find but just seeing if anyone has anyidea.

Thanks

I have same vehicle same ac system...I do notice it's gets quirky down in that first to second settting...has since I bought it in 97..but not to the extreme of being little difference between second click setting and full hot....good luck.

I have the same problem with my 04. A/C only comes on at 18 degrees setting and anything higher (even 18.5) it starts blowing warm air.

If you look at the top of this forum (when you click for the R50 Pathfinder) there will be service manuals. These are Nissan manuals and helped me out a ton !!! Anyhow with about a half of an hour of diagnostic testing (as per the manual an no tools required) I managed to have the computer on the a/c unit flashing an error code which showed me 2 parts which could be faulty.

I havn't had the time or pacience to attempt to fix either of them yet.

Check out this manual, it has helped me out a few times !!!
