Corolla Defrost Issue

My 2017 Toyota Corolla diesel has 189189 km. I'm having climate control issues, specifically with the defrost function. There's an error code and reduced heating. I suspect the defrost air distribution flap or a defective cable/plug. Anyone else seen this?

Hey, I have a Corolla too and had similar issues with the heater not blowing hot enough. Check the connections to the flap motor. Could be something simple.

Thanks! Could you be more specific about the location of the connections and what to look for? Were your symptoms the same, and did you fix it yourself?

Yeah, mine was blowing cold air sometimes, especially on the defrost. I didn't solve it myself, tbh. Took it to a workshop. They said it was a loose connection or something like that. Just take it to a professional.

Thanks for sharing your experience. I'll probably take it to a trusted workshop. Hopefully, it's just a simple connection problem; the mechanic estimated around 95€ to fix the connection. Thanks again!
