Yes, I am referring to the air conditioning brought into the hybrid battery via the coolant lines you can see on the underside of your vehicle especially near the rear driver's side wheel. i called it rear a/c. Coolant line get cold when i turned off front a/c and cools down battery. when i turn on a/c coolant line get warm and no cold air for battery. that is why i want to use cabin air to cool battery just like 2010 models.
FEH, A/C based battery cooling system to Cabin air based sys
My FEH 2006 has rear a/c problem and doesn't cool down battery. I thought that problem with belnd door. But when I turned off front a/c, rear a/c works well and cooled down battery. I has 3 options to fix
1. Change Compressor because of luck of pressure.
2. Change expantion valve.
3. Change a/c and heater switch.
Which one should i do first to solve issue?
Last night I removed blend door motor, inside panel driver back side and Hose. I also kept belnd doors open. Battery cooled by air form cabin now. It works but i have service light and message. anyone has idea how to convert cooling system from A?C based to Cabin air based?

I disconnect blend door motor and blend door. Blend door motor stays connected to elictric system. I made hole indeide panel, driver back side, and hose. Battery cooled by air form cabin now. It works but i have service light and message every morning. I turn off engine start again. No more light. I will post pics soon.
