Here's a weird AC issue

[fasteddy]

15 Escalade. So my front AC won't blow cold unless I turn the rear AC on then its fine. Weird huh? Gotta be a switch or a sensor somewhere but I'm not an AC guy so have no idea. Any thoughts?

When this happened to me on two other cars, it turned out to be a fan relay that needed replacing.

Maybe the control from the master isn't actually engaging the A/C. The rear calling for it may take a diffent path, or bypass the bad one? You probably need to replace the A/C control panel - seems common on these. Did it on my 2017 a couple years back already. In the Yukon it comes as one panel with the radio and everything.

Did you ever figure this one out?

The OP hasn't been on here in over a year.
