AC Problem and Interior Lighting Question

[dobaas]

Hi,

Just bought a used 2001 T&C LTD AWD, nice van, plenty of room for the whole gang, stylish, sleek and very accomodating. After I bought it, I started reading this forum and kind of got the feeling that these vans have their fair share of nagging problems. Shame, I thought this was the best of the mini vans because Chrysler/Dodge created the minivan in the 80's and you would think that they have a handle on it.

Anyway, my A/C has three zones, driver, pass, rear. The drivers side zone blows warmer air than the other two zones, and the setting for all 3 zones are identical (72 degrees). Is there a separate a/c system for each zone? What could cause this condition?

The lights for the drivers side heated seats and some of the lights for the radio and a/c panel do not illuminate at night when the headlights are on. It seems that all these lights that don't come on are on the left side of the center console dash. Any ideas, possible fuse or are these individual lights that need to be replaced.

Thanks for reading my forum and if you can offer any assistance, that would be great.
