Do not confuse the air conditioning , heating and ventilation of this Seat Mii. Heating and air conditioning are devices that give the possibility of reducing or increasing the air temperature. The first with the help of the heat emitted from the engine, and the other with the help of a liquid refrigerant . Ventilation is all of the circuits and devices that will allow air to enter the passenger compartment. The essential component will be kicker which sends air into your cabin. If there is very little or no air supply, it is certainly a malfunction of ventilation. We will discover thanks to this post how ventilation works, in order to better discern dysfunctions and understand how to remedy them.
How a ventilation works on a Seat Mii
The ventilation is used first to circulate the air in the passenger compartment of this Seat Mii. As for the blower, the latter generally consists of a resistor, a turbine, and a motor. The lower the total resistance of the circuit, the faster the turbine runs. By turning the knob in the vehicle, the resistance is thus reduced.
Seat Mii: frequent ventilation problems
Dirty air ducts
When the ventilation works but a small amount of air reaches the interior of this Seat Mii, it is plausible that your air shutters are clogged. Using a screwdriver flat, do not hesitate to dismantle the valves of the air vents. It will be enough to look inside if they are cluttered. When this is happening do not hesitate to scour them, as well as the valves.
Dirty cabin filter
When you perceive odors and this ventilation is weak, the malfunction must undoubtedly come from the cabin filter of this Seat Mii. It clogs and piles up bacteria as time goes by. It is completely normal that this one is dirty, it is there to clarify the air which reaches you. There is no manufacturer's instruction on when to change it. We only advise you to disassemble it, check its condition. When it is really dirty, it will be necessary to change it.
Resistance of the blower HS
When the ventilation buttons on your Seat Mii do not work well, or really do not, it is probably due to the resistance. The resistance is used to raise the voltage in order to increase the speed of this turbine. A strange malfunction of this ventilation is probably related to a resistance malfunction. This small electronic chip is complex to repair. It must be changed.
HS blower motor
There are several relatively regular malfunctions on the blower. The brushes are deteriorated. Over time, these will be able to deteriorate and generate electrical faults. Your kicker will be able to function very randomly, and even not be actuated at all. In addition, the malfunction may arise from bearings of the fan motor. When the ventilation whistles, like a rusty mechanic, the bearings may require lubrication.
