Windshield Cowl Screen (for vehicles built prior to Jun. 6, 1994, MDH 06-06-XX).
REPAIR PROCEDURE:
This bulletin involves installing a fabricated screen over the cowl plenum air inlet openings on all vehicles, and on some vehicles cleaning air outlets
and/or installing a revised windshield cowl screen.
1.
For vehicles equipped with A/C, proceed to step 5. For heater only equipped vehicles, remove all upper panel air outlets by pivoting them
downward with adequate force. Remove any debris/leaves from the outlet louvers.
2.
Check the defroster outlet for any debris. If debris is evident, remove the instrument panel top cover as outlined in the 1995 Neon Service Manual
(Publication No. 81-270-5025), Page SE-7 and remove the debris.
3.
Check the heater duct openings and remove any debris. With all outlets removed, turn blower to high and move the temperature control back and
forth from cold to hot while cycling through all air distribution modes to blow out any debris in the duct system.
4.
Install the instrument panel top cover, if removed. Install the air outlets. The outlets can only be installed one way, with the large diameter hinge
on the left side. If noise was heard from the blower motor wheel, proceed to the next step, otherwise go to step 8.
5.
Remove the blower motor and wheel assembly as outlined in the Service Manual, Pages 24-11 through 24-12. Remove any debris/leaves from the
blower wheel and in the heater-A/C housing.
6.
Remove any debris from the A/C condensate drain tube.
7.
Install the blower motor and wheel assembly back into the heater-A/C housing.
