Air Conditioner not blowing as hard as it should.

Asked by Dwayne2004 May 03, 2012 at 06:15 PM about the 2004 Chrysler PT Cruiser Touring Wagon FWD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 2004 PT Cruiser which I just had a new blower motor installed in for the air conditioner system.  The blower was not putting out as much airflow as normal so I took it into my mechanic.  He checked to make sure there was no blockage or other problems and the final diagnosis was the need for a new blower motor.  However I just picked up the car and the new blower motor is still not blowing as hard as it should.  I know that when the fan is on high speed I am able to feel the air blowing on my face.  Now I can just barely feel the air on high speed.  Is there something else my mechanic (whom I trust) might have missed?  Summer is nearly here and I would like to be cool and comfortable.

Maybe the new blower is just defective and not able to spin as fast as it should.

Did You make sure the cabin filter is not blocked with dirt? It is under the cowling at the bottom of the windshield.

Hi Dwayne, I know this was a long time ago. Did you ever figure out what was wrong. My PT is doing the same thing . Tried 3 different blower motors. Changed out the resistor and cabin filter. Still blowing weak .
