[s-cars] HVAC Error Codes - What do they mean?

[Wylie Bean]

Doug,
If you find the FAQ on the QW UrS4/S6 site it'll definitely be helpful. You can get to some of that stuff by removing the wiper ass'y and cowling instead of tearing into the dash.  I'm finally convinced this is the last winter I suffer through a FUBAR'd CC system in my S-car...

Thanks, Brian.

The air flow is obviously not going where it is intended.  I get very
little warm air on the feet and when I turn the front defroster on,
there is very little airflow to the windshield.  I was hoping that
someone out there has had similar problems and could point me to a
write-up or two.

I will search the places you mentioned, but was hoping to find a
shortcut.  Not looking forward to tearing apart the dash to access
flaps and motors.
