    VOLVO VNL D13

    ... I have the control knob on MAX -- and there is very little air coming out of my vents ?

    there are many things that it could be like the in cab Blower motor ???

    any ideas on what this could be?

    the air WORKS but is barley blowing air - it got progressively worse.

    Thanks in advance.

    Sounds like the blower motor. But what truck do you have on my video love it did the same thing but was the controller that was bad

    Thanks for that -- dealer said the same thing - the controller was bad - will have to tear
    this apart to get to the controller.

    Not that hard just need to be careful when removing the trim tabs. Then it's just screws. On mine have to remove the radio and switches to get to the the screws for the controller. About a 10 minute job

    My truck is doing the same thing...... I was going to guess the blend door motor?? I'd rather it be the controller!

    check when the last time you changed you rcab filter was it's probably stuffed up maybe even blower motor but you should be able to hear if motor is working or not

    My Freightliner did that recently. Stopped blowing in a matter of 10 min. Replaced that and works fine. Vovo may be different
