About seven weeks ago, right in the dead of
summer, the air conditioner on my pickup stopped working. The air conditioner
itself was fine but the temperature control couldn't be adjusted. And of
course, it wasn't stuck on the cool setting.
Normally, a non-working air conditioner
wouldn't be much of a problem; I don't use it much anyway. But, I'm not really
fond of heat blowing out of the vents either - not when the outside temps are
in the triple digits.
Trouble is, I was busy. So, I didn't fix it.
For seven weeks I've been driving with heat blasting on me. Even with the
windows down, it was quite warm!
I finally got around to working on the pickup
this past weekend. The job took about an hour and a half - to take the dash
apart, diagnose the problem, devise a way to fix it, and put it all back
together. And yes, in case you're wondering, it works!
No more driving around sweating! Or feeling
faint! But then, it's now September and the need for air conditioning is
quickly fading. Soon I'll be needing heat instead!
Still, I'm glad the air conditioning is
working again; I might want to use it - next summer! ~
