AC troubles, need some help please
I have a 16' 320i (US), and my AC stopped blowing air one day. So, I immediately replaced the blower motor and resistor after noticing the motor appeared to have coppertone-looking rust dust, but there was still no air blowing.
I have checked the compressor; it is spinning/running, and the refrigerant is in the green, but I noticed that the low-pressure line is freezing. I assumed it was because there was no airflow. I have not seen any other freezing except that line. Is there a hidden fuse for the blower I don't know about, or am I missing something here? I've recently had a lot of maintenance costs on the car, so I am trying to DIY it as much as possible, even if it's just diagnosing it at first. I've had many shops do the trial-and-error fix, and I'm tired of blowing unnecessary money. |

But really my challenge is always putting it on the correct setting to test. I have a multimeter and I know to be on volts but would it be a 12v setting or would it be different? I appreciate the help |
