Code Question

[cruzer99]

Can anyone shed some light on these two codes B0361 and B0441?
I beleive they are related to my AC or AC vents. The AC blows cool but not what I would call COLD air.
Thanks,

Thanks bluecoupe, great info. Is this a dealer only type fix?

Thanks again for the feed back.

It all depends on how mechanical and comfortable you are. See if you can get a hold of a shop manual. Most of the components are not too hard to get too.

Has this been an ongoing problem or did it just pop up? Did you try the old "disconnect the battery over night trick". If it is a gremlin it may clear up on it's own.

I'll email you some more info.
