Let's not confuse the air conditioning , heating and ventilation of your Jeep Commander. Heating and air conditioning are systems that offer the possibility of decreasing or increasing the air temperature. The first through the heat produced by the engine, and the other with a fluid refrigerant . The famous ventilation is the set of circuits and mechanisms that give the opportunity for air to reach the interior. The main component will be kicker which emits air in your automobile. If there is little or no air, it is probably a malfunction of ventilation. We will see in this guide how a ventilation works, so as to better identify concerns and understand the technique to resolve it.
How a ventilation works on a Jeep Commander
Ventilation is used to begin to regenerate the air inside the interior of your Jeep Commander. For the pulser, the latter is usually composed of a resistor, a turbine, and a motor. The lower the total resistance of the electrical system, the faster the turbine turns. By turning the button in the passenger compartment, the resistance is therefore reduced.
Jeep Commander: common ventilation issues
Dirty air ducts
If the ventilation works but little air arrives in the interior of your Jeep Commander, it is plausible that the air shutters are blocked. Using a screwdriver flat, it is possible to dismantle the valves of the air vents. It is only necessary to look into it if these are blocked. When this is happening it is possible to scour them, as well as the shutters.
Dirty cabin filter
If you feel fumes and this ventilation lacks power, the malfunction is certainly due to the cabin filter of your Jeep Commander. The latter clogs and accumulates bacteria with the years. It is completely normal that it is clogged, it is there to purify the air which reaches you. There is no manufacturer's instruction on when to change it. It is advisable simply to dismantle it, check its condition. If it is completely black, it will be better to replace it.
Resistance of the blower HS
If the Jeep Commander’s ventilation control is working poorly, or even really not, it’s certainly due to the resistance. This resistance increases the voltage to increase the speed of the turbine. A strange malfunction of this ventilation can be due to a malfunction of resistance. This microchip is complicated to troubleshoot. It will have to be replaced.
HS blower motor
There are two relatively recurring concerns about the kicker. The brushes are deteriorated. As time goes by, these can wear out and generate electrical faults. Your fan may run very randomly, or stop spinning at all. In addition, the malfunction may come from bearings of the fan motor. If the ventilation makes a sharp noise, like a rusty mechanism, it can happen that its bearings lack lubrication.
