Read evidence and context

Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that performed work without a confirmed outcome: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

I tested the resistance on the cabin temp sensor in the passenger vent and it is working

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

1 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Myself and my mechanic are grasping at straws at this point - gone from Loving my 996 AC to being frustrated with it Initial Symptoms were erratic cooling - seemed to be losing cold air at idle, fans were not kicking in Compressor was engaged but no cold air Mecahnic did a lot of troubleshooting - replaced the fans and resistors in there front bumper and seemed to be better Worked better then quickly went back to the way it was (although the fans and coolant were all cooler / working better) Took it back they evacuated the system pulled codes, etc...talked to Porsche - they recommended lower Compressor refirigerant and more oil and said its something they are seeing in 996's NOW - it works "better" but i still randomly lose cold vent temps for no reason - sitting at a stop light...air stops blowing cold...i turn it off and back on (literally off and on) and it kicks right back in It seems to be the worst in AUTO mode....it barely works at all...IF i use the MANUELL mode it works much better I tested the resistance on the cabin temp sensor in the passenger vent and it is working I also have gotten into the car twice over the 4 years or so of ownership and the entire Climate Control panel/module is Blank and non-responsive - i pull the plugs plug it back in and it works So.....thinking about pulling the trigger on one of these refurbished Climate control modules from a reputable place but i am opposed to throwing expensive parts at a problem....anything else to check? Thanks
