My rear ac/heater on my 2006 pontiac montana does not (blow) work. When it 1st started giving problems it would come on when I'd hit a bump in the road but now it has completely stopped working. The front ac/heater both still work fine.

Get someone with electrical knowledge and a tester to check the supply etc to the fan. Also the switch if the rear is separate.

SOURCE: 2005 Pontiac Montana SV6 heater blows cold when slowing to idle

How cold is it there and does your engine cool down any while going slow? If it does it may mean you need a hotter thermostat installed, My first thought would be to check the coolant level in the radiator and the coolant reservoir! Hope this helps and Merry Christmas

SOURCE: pontiac montana heater works but doesnt blow heat out on defrost

If the heater core is good and the blower works, the valve doors may not be opening and closing properly to direct air towards the proper vents. This may be because something has fallen in and is obstructing their movement. The actuating motors may not work properly, or the linkages that connect them to the mode doors may be worn or improperly adjusted. You can get a look at the mechanisms by removing the driver side knee bolster (two screws) and a lower trim panel on the side of the center console.

Be careful fiddling with the linkages. Everything is plastic and easy to break, and replacing the heater box requires removing most of the dash.

SOURCE: I have a 2000 pontiac Montana. The problem is with the coolant

We have the same problem. It's an air pocket in the cooling system. The cause can be anywhere from not filling the system all the way or most likely a leak has developed and air has entered into the system as the coolnt level has dropped. The coolant light goes off and on as the air pocket moves around.

Our Montana has a leaky intake gasket, which is the source of the problem. A very common problem with the 3.4. It should go for another 100K plus though, once it is repaired.

SOURCE: I own a 2006 Pontiac

probably the blend door not opening fully. Do you hear a clicking under the dash by passenger's feet? If not, try calibrating the system:

  1. Place the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. With the Mode knob in the PANEL position, press and hold the AC button for 5 seconds.
  3. Rotate the Mode knob fully counterclockwise.
  4. Rotate the Mode knob fully clockwise.
  5. Rotate the Mode knob fully counterclockwise.
  6. Release the AC button.
  7. Wait 40 seconds for the HVAC control module to self-calibrate.
  8. Start the vehicle.
If this doesn't work, your actuator may have failed. Look under the dash to see if any of the actuators on the heater box are trying to turn when you change the temperature setting. Unfortunately, I cannot find aftermarket parts for your heater, so if the door isn't working you may need to go to the pontiac dealer. Let me know if you have questions.

I had a similar problem with my 2006 Montana. It ended up being the foam shield donut looking thing that stops the parking brake cable from hitting against the middle of the rear axle. Fixed it with foam plumbing insulation and electrical tape. Better than new. Hope this helps.

My 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6 front heater is just blowing warm. The rear heater is blowing cold. I felt the heater hose running to the rear underneath the van just before they turn up into the rear heater...

I suggest you try one of those instant download manuals. My nephew bought one for me when my car broke and we could fix it all by ourselves with the manual costing $10. This website reliable-store.com is very good for this.
?Try it.

I own a 2006 Pontiac Montana SV6, there is very little heat coming from the heater, a/c working fine, fan blowing full capacity. Could it be the thermostat.

probably the blend door not opening fully. Do you hear a clicking under the dash by passenger's feet? If not, try calibrating the system:
  1. Place the ignition switch to the OFF position.
  2. With the Mode knob in the PANEL position, press and hold the AC button for 5 seconds.
  3. Rotate the Mode knob fully counterclockwise.
  4. Rotate the Mode knob fully clockwise.

The ac blows hot air in the front and cold air in the back

Either the door that controls whether air from the heater or ac is stuck in between or the ac system is having trouble. Minivans sometimes have seperate compressors for the rear and front.

2004 Pontiac Montana blows cold air in defrost

There is a mix damper inside your duct that controls the heat over heater core and ac evaporator that to your floor and one to your defrost. it is probable an electric actuator, that is not functioning properly. If yu can locate it and manually move it, you might have to remove the actuator motor first, you should be able to figure out your problem, I hope this helps! merry Christmas!
