I have a 2000 Bonneville with the manual controls (not climate control)that blows warm air all the time. Above 50 degrees outside air temp, the passenger compartment gets enough warm air that I eventually open a window. The air conditioning performance is also poor, I think due to warm air always mixing with the AC. How can I get to the control door, if that is the trouble? Is it reasonably doable or more work than its worth. I can see the control on the passenger side behind the dash and it is moving with the rheostat so I think the door has gaps, holes or is bent. Could I just add a solenoid valve in the heater line on the engine side of the firewall to stop all hot water or would that make trouble? If I take this apart, are there special bleeding procedures to get the air out? Thanks.
