Default air conditioning problem

I am having problems getting air through the ducts. Some comes through, but not near as much as it used to. Someone suggested I might have an air conditioning filter that is clogged. Never heard of an a/c filter. do I have one and where is it located? thanks for any help

I don't want to ask the obvious, but you have checked the mode position, so that the air isn't split between the heater floor and the air conditioning ducts.

Just checking...

Never heard of an A/C filter. I did however recently have the first two settings of the blower not do anything. Here is a link to my thread as well as pictures of the part and repair. About $25.00 and 30 minutes of your time.

thanks for the info, but yes the mode is correct and it is the high settings on the a/c that don't seem to work

Default Check vac lines

Had similiar problem, turned out a vac line under battery tray was brittle and cracked due due old battery leak, I sectioned the line and now works perfectly.
