Default a/c system only blows HOT air

anybody??

2001 RX 300 heating and a/c system only blows HOT air. I removed the glove box and watched the air servos redirect the air properly, but it only blows hot air (temp setting only affects the air distribution and not the air temperature). Is there a main air vent/valve that could cause this?

TIA

Mine didn't blow "hot" air..it just blew semi-warm air when the A/C was turned on (i.e. The A/C wasn't as cold as it could be). All I did was recharge the freon and I was good to go. A/C is nice and cold now. Not sure how long you've had your vehicle, but I had to recharge the freon after 6 yrs.
