Ac problems

Second time out in our new 2018 308 Vibe, the main air conditioner works but when you close the main vent to have the ac go through the vents it doesn’t work. Any ideas?

Ok, the air doesn't blow out the vents or the unit shuts off?

If still runs but no airflow out vents, there may be a blockage. Did it work the first time?

It worked the first time but it won’t come out of the vents.

If a dealer isn't close, pull the ceiling panel to check for blockage, may be some foam insulation blocking, you can also pop the vent closest and feel for blockage, too.

I have the same problem and was a blockage of the vent outlet with the foil tape from the manufacturer installation. Easy remove the main blow down cover and cut open the vent foil!
