Why is there no air coming out of the two middle vents in the Sagitar's air conditioning?
2 Answers
No air coming out of the two middle vents in the car's air conditioning could be due to reasons such as the switch for the middle vents not being turned on, severely clogged filters, a blown fuse for the blower motor, or a damaged relay. Below are some tips for using car air conditioning: 1. Ventilate before turning it on: After the car has been exposed to the sun for a long time, open all four doors and the sunroof for 3 minutes to allow air circulation inside the car. This quickly lowers the interior temperature, making the air conditioning more effective when turned on. 2. Use the recirculation mode wisely: Recirculation blocks outside hot air, creating a sealed space inside the car, allowing the air to circulate quickly under the air conditioning's effect for rapid cooling. Once the interior temperature drops, it's recommended to switch to fresh air mode every 30 minutes to purify the air inside the car, then switch back to recirculation after 5 minutes. 3. Turn off the air conditioning in time: Turn off the air conditioning 5 minutes before parking to protect the engine and save fuel.
My own Sagitar also experienced the issue of no airflow from the central vents. It happened during summer driving when I noticed only the side vents were blowing air, while the central ones were completely inactive. Initially, I thought it might be a blocked air duct, so I cleaned the vents with a soft brush and a small vacuum, but there was no improvement. Later, I checked and realized it might be due to incorrect settings on the AC panel, such as accidentally switching to foot or defog mode, which doesn’t direct airflow to the face. Additionally, in some Sagitar models, if the air flap motor ages or gets stuck, it can also cause the central vents to stop working. In the end, I inspected the fuses and electrical connections and found a loose connection—replugging it fixed the issue. I recommend first confirming if the AC mode is set correctly. If that doesn’t help, try cleaning the dust around the vents or consider visiting a shop to have a technician inspect the air flap system. Regular AC maintenance can prevent such minor issues.
