UPDATE;
another member has installed and tested my resister mod. Railfan413
His AC is colder than ever on a 21.So thats makes 2 of us now. All it takes is a resister of 28.5, or 29K ohms. With a couple hours of removing the glove box and finding which resister works to get the vent temp down to...
Iv been trying to find the evap sensor specs for a while now. When i uad it on my workbench it was around 20-23 degrees celcius. My fluke meter mesured 3200ohm approx. I did a ice bath test and it was approx 8000ohm. My truck is a 19. I uploaded a youtube video showing some resistance values...
So i ended up adding 1 more 4.65Kohm resister the other day, cause the AC was too cold! Lol.
I measured the resisters i added, its at 29,000 ohm, or 29Kohm. The temp sesor on my workbench was at approx 3200ohms. With the parallel resisters added it measured around 2900ohms.
Getting 43*F vent temps
UPDATE,
So iv basically gave up with the dealership. Today I torn the glove box out and gained access to the evaporator sensor.
With the sensor in an ice bath it wwas reading about 8.5Kohms.
Sitting in ambient air, 20*Cish it was around 3.5Kohm
I ran a bunch of tests with the sensor removed...
Yu0 same issue here..... i have a 08 tundra and a 2011 Sequoia. They both blow so cold you uave to turn the fan down.
This Ram is garbage.... for a 100K truck Limited. This is complete ********. All it needs to do is run the compressor longer and cycle at a colder temp. Makes me think they...
I been thinking of insulating the evao sensor, to fool it into running colder. I like your idea of a resister. Big question is how hard is it to locate the sensor or wiring? I havent looked at the HVAC box much yet. But yes the compressor cycles off to early. Nothing to do with R134a ect.
Im thinking if we can develope a new software or add-on that alters the compressor cycling this issue will be solved..... anyone figure out how to reprogram the AC cchip yet??
So iv been following this issue for poor AC for 2 summers now. I have a 2019 3500 Limited. My AC is pretty pathetic. I have been to the deler 4 times now. Last week they did the so called TSB for housing and eveap replacement. The AC is only blowing 50 degrees...... I am experienced with AC as a...
