How to Diagnose Your Car's Air Conditioning System
There is never a good time for your air conditioning in your car to stop working, but it typically seems to happen in the dead heat of summer. If your AC system has either quit working or has stopped working well, you're faced with driving your vehicle around with the windows down - which brings little relief when it is hot outside. Having some knowledge about how the air conditioning works in your vehicle can help you get the system functioning again.
Understanding the AC system and components
Your car's air conditioning system works just like a refrigerator or your home air conditioning. The purpose of the system is to remove hot air from the inside of your vehicle. It consists of the following components: 1: Compressor. 2: Condenser 3: Evaporator. 4: Metering device 5: Hoses or lines. 6: Refrigerant.
Though these are the primary components of the air conditioning system, your vehicle has a series of electrical circuits that allow it to function, as well as a dash system that contains numerous doors that move within the dash that can affect effectiveness. Below are the most common causes of poor air conditioning performance and what can be done to get you comfortably back on the road.
Tools and safety
When performing any air conditioning system service you must have the proper tools - and exercise caution when using them.
Reason 1: High pressure. The air conditioning system is filled with high pressure refrigerant, and can operate at over 200 psi, which can be very dangerous.
Reason 2: High temperature. Parts of the AC system can reach well over 150 degrees Fahrenheit so be very careful when coming in contact with parts of the system.
Reason 3: Moving parts. You must watch out for moving parts under the hood while the engine is running. Keep all articles of clothing tightly secured.
Performance check
Step 1: Park your vehicle on a level surface.
Step 2: Place the wheel chocks around the driver side rear tire.
Step 3: Open the hood.
Step 4: Locate the air conditioning compressor.
Step 5: Turn on the AC. Turn the air conditioning on in the vehicle and see if that clutch that was previously stationary is now engaged.
Step 6: Turn the fan to Medium. If the compressor clutch engaged, return to the inside of your vehicle and turn the fan speed to Medium.
Step 7: Check the air temperature. See if the temperature of the air coming from the main dash vents is cold.
