    Installed my FWI a couple days ago, tried to use the A/C today but nothing happens? Any ideas? Hoping to get this fixed before the 90+ degree weather comes

    I can't see how installing a FWI would have anything to do with the AC. Unless you unplugged something or put a hole in an AC line.

    Does the control show the AC is activated and it just doesn't blow cold air? Or does it not even show that the AC is activated. And digital climate control or analog?

    It's digital climate control, it shows the a/c is activated but no air comes out

    Yeah I don't think it has anything to do with the FWI install, probably just coincidence. When I turn it on I hear absolutely no noise, like it's not even trying to work. So that means blower motor I guess?

    I'll listen closer but I don't think I even hear that, I turn it on, sometimes a bit of air actually comes out but its just kind of...trickling out, theres still no noise from the compressor or the motor.

    there is a connection bellow the intake in the aluminum A/C line that if disconnected will cause about the same result. I replaced my transmission and disconnected this, and spent months figuring out what went wrong...until I noticed this empty socket and dangling plug.
