Most Sunfires have a 'valve' on the A/C unit that you use to fill the unit with refrigerant. I say valve because it looks like a valve, but really its more of a nozzle. All vehicles from the mid to late 90's and on are forced by law to use only R-134a refrigerant. How much refrigerant your cars unit holds can be determined by finding the refrigerant charge label under your hood. It should be located near or above your A/C unit. The easiest way to ensure no mistakes or damages to your unit is to get a professional A/C fill. But the cheapest way is to buy a can of refrigerant (you can find these at most auto stores and even Wal-Mart) and follow the instructions given in the box. It will show you step by step how to add the refrigerant to your unit.
if the radio is not working in a 2007 Pontiac g6 sdn what is the problem
Hitting it is not going to fix it - that will only make matters worse. A possible problem is a loose connection inside the radio or in the dash. Remove the radio and check all its wiring and the connecting wiring that leads to the radio. You'll need an Ohmeter.
I had the same problem on my 2000 Bonneville, its low on refrigerant in the AC cooling system which means it has a leak somewhere. Have the pressure in the AC cooling system checked by a professional. They can inject a dye into the system and check it with a black light to find where the leak is and fix it.
Dodges are good for blowing fuses. If that is not it, the fan switch might need replaced.
It could be electical like a fuse, but I had a problem on my 2000 Astro that was caused by a rubber vaccuum line that was split. I replaced it for about 2 bucks and it corrected the problem. Hope this helps
What, exactly, is the problem?

i have a 2001 pontiac sunfire antitheft problem will not start anttheft light flashs on dash i can turn motor over buy jump starter but will not start
Have vehicle scanned to determine the problem
The radio on your 2000 Sunfire is probably reading "loc". If this is the problem, you need to go to a Pontiac dealer and pay them to unlock the radio. This is an anti theft device to insure your radio can not function if it is removed. The cost is from 10 to 20$
I had a similar problem in a Pontiac Sunfire. The guy at the dealership said it's a common problem with the switches they use for fan control in Chevy/Pontiac vehicles. It's about a $10 part.
I have the same problem. Refrigerant is low due to a small leak in the system. They came out and added refrigerant to my system and it worked fine. Now after a long power outage (hurricane IKE) I am having the same problem. It appears I have a small leak in my system and need more refrigerant installed!
There are three main possible causes to explain why a car air conditioner is blowing hot air. These causes are a worn out compressor, refrigerant leak, and an electrical problem.
check if your battery is low than usual ..might be alternator problem
i had it looked at and they said it was the oxygen sensor could that be the problem if so how hard is it to change.
A bad PCV valve or a problem in the PCV system will cause this
We need a bit more information about your problem. Does the fan work? Does the car take a long time to warm up? (possible thermostat problem) FriPilot
