Burning smell from AC
Hi all,
Would like some thoughts on where to start diagnosing. During the Florida Summer, you could imagine my AC is always on. A few days ago I noticed a burning plastic or burning metal smell from my vents. I've turned off the AC and I think it does not smell with the fan on and vent open or closed, but you can smell it a couple of minutes after hitting the AC button. Even stranger, it seems to go away after a couple of minutes. It may not be related to hitting the AC button at all but that's what I found when I tested.
I have a 95 C2, fairly stock. Any advice on first places to look would be appreciated.
Happy Labor Day!
