Good Morning, I'm a new poster here,but I have read the archives and have not really found the same issue i am having with the ac/heater ...I bought this car a couple of years ago,it has 123 mi on her and I bought her from a good friend who is also a MB mechanic ....The issue currenly is as we drive that we get door heat and floor heat when we don't want it and the AC works thru the center vent ,the side vents and the defrost vents blow a little warm air also ....What we have done so far ....Replaced the monovalve (the original was fine)voltage at the mono valve is 12+ volts ,or .7 volts,we swaped out the control unit with another ,and we have swaped out the heater core sensor ....all out of a known working w126....still the same issues ....My MB mechanic ,is still trouble shooting the issue,but I would like to help speed this process along so I can drive the car ,and he can work on another W126 for me ....that I want to buy.
He suspects vacuum issues,but his memory is a bit foggy after all these years ,I know in time he'll resolve this ,but it never hurts to ask...any reponses would ne most appreactied...TIA JIM
