schematics and diagrams: fix ac

Many car users face this problem.
There is a possibility that the Freon in the AC system is too low. Normally, the AC system has a pressure switch to keep the AC from running if the runs out or is too low. This helps prevent damage to the AC system.
Does your compressor cycle on and of. It should cycle every five minutes or so. You should see the clutch engaging or at least here it when it does. If not you have one of two problems. A bad compressor (bad clutch, ceased compressor piston, ((or badcycling switch))) or your system has a leak.The leak could have formed anywhere in the system. Most common places are the shrader valves in the high and low side service ports.These ports are usually located on the aluminium lines or near the compressor.Leak will commonly form as a result of old and dry o-rings. I would suggest finding your high side port and test bleed it. Do this in an open and well ventilated area.Freon is harmful gas so cover your nose and mouth with a wet rag and avoid breathing in any freon that may be expelled from the system.If no white mist comes out then the system is dry or at low pressure. You can buy a leak detection kit from your local parts store.This basic troubleshooting will help you.

Thanks.

If you need dis-assembly or replacement instructions for any other auto/car part, or you want to ask question related to your car/truck jeep problem then please leave the comment with your details, so I can provide you the required instructions and solutions.

Its a leak,confirm leak problem.

If you charge the system and works for a time ,(hour, week, year) and then quits it sounds like perhaps the Freon is leaking out somewhere. Freon does not ever get converted to air. Freon is in several states of existence while it is in your system. It is a high pressure liquid, high presure gas, low presure liquid, and a low presure gas, but it is still always Freon.
There is a valve called an expansion valve. What it does is to take the high presure "liquid" freon and allows it to pass into a low presure zone called an evaporator at a regulated rate. When you take freon at a liquid state high presure condition and expose it to a low presure environment it "evaporates" ( thus the name evaporator) and it gets very cold when it does this. This is where the cold air you feel coming out of the vents is made.
But the freon is in an enclosed system. By this, I mean it is never exposed to air, moisure (water), or anything else. It goes through all of these changes while inside this enclosed system.
Therefore, if the enclosed system is good then the amount of freon inside it will not change. If the amount of freon doesn't change then adding more will only make things worse.
I would suggest having the system checked with a hologen leak detector and/or system dye to find the leaks. Remember, if you have to add freon, then the freon that was there before must have escaped from somewhere.
Find a reputable shop to check the system for leaks. If it is leaking bad enough to run low in a hour it should be an easy to find leak.

This basic troubleshooting will help.Thanks.

Car ac problem are very common,faced by many car users.In some cases,the ac components like compressor,clutch,relay or fuses,gets short/burnt out or gets melted due to over heating.There are many different types of problem noticed with car AC failures.

If your are sure that the destination is close by, please try to switch off the A/C. You will save a lot of fuel allowing the engine to trim back the temperature before switching off.
This would also improve the life of the A/C specially if you can switch off when the thermostat has switched off.
If you repeat this it would be good so that you will never crack the engine witht he A/C powered on. Your battery life will improve without any strain on the starter.
