SUBJECT:
UNEVEN AIR FLOW AT WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER OUTLET
MODELS:
1988-89 C/K TRUCKS
Figure 1
Some 1988 and early production 1989 C/K trucks may experience a reduced air flow condition at the upper right side defroster outlet during the defrost
operation. This condition is due to an insufficient amount of air flow directional vanes within the windshield defroster nozzle assembly. To address this
condition, three (3) vanes have been added to the inside of the defroster nozzle assembly (P/N 15530575) to redirect the air flow (See Figure 1).
IMPORTANT:
The addition of the three (3) directional vanes to the defroster nozzle assembly will correct the uneven air flow condition. It is
normal for the defrost output air temperature to be cooler on the right side than the left.
Parts are currently available from GMSPO.
Beginning with the following VIN breakpoints, the redesigned defroster nozzle assembly was incorporated into production.
