Default Blower problem - Only Hot Air coming out of vents.

I've tried searching for other posts, but can't find anything that relates to the issue I'm having. Only things I can find are to do with AC...but I don't have AC.

I have a 99 Civic DX and for the last few months only get hot air coming out of the vents regardless of whether I have the dial set to cold or not. When the dial is moved to cold I also hear a clicking noise coming from behind the right side of the dash; it's hard to tell exactly where the noise is coming from.

The issue started after the CD deck was replaced. I checked the connections going to the climate control console and they were a little loose. I reconnected them, but that didn't fix it. The car is not overheating and there aren't any issues with the thermostat as far as I know.

I've been searching around for possible causes and can't really find anything conclusive..hoping you guys can help me. Thanks!

Is it any easier to switch from hot to cold on the selector now than it was before? The installation may have loosened up, so your lever now controls nothing (ie separation occurred)

Thanks for the reply.

It feels the same adjusting the ****, and when I do adjust it to cold there is a clicking noise which leads me to believe that it's working.

Much appreciated....nothing is as frustrating as hot air blowing in your face on a nice warm day.

its not your blower, chances are its your wire that goes from your climate control...
if you reach under the right side you'll find and heater coil(metal wire) that is looped around a rod, if the coils not in the right spot than it wouldnt adjust temp. right from cold to hot

It happened to me after i dod amber climate control in my EK.... try this and get back to me
