Friends: 0 |  Solar Panel Ventilation problem With the car started (i.e. Power == ON), I depressed or turned ON the Solar Panel button, then turned the Power to OFF. I left the car in the sun for over 10 minutes. Returning with a long feather, I put it through the 2 inch opened sun roof, against the center vents, and NO air movement. What am I doing wrong? I haven't been able to get the Solar ventilation working yet. |

Friends: 0 | Re: Solar Panel Ventilation problem why did you leave the sunroof vented? the solar does not need the sunroof vented to work. leave the sunroof closed, leave the car for over 10 minutes in full sun on a hot day. you can enter the car and feel the air flow coming out of the center dash vents. the fans turn off when you start the car, not when you open the door. |
