The refrigerant is one of the main components used to cool your vehicle. Without adequate refrigerant, your AC is not able to function. The most common causes for a leak would be a ruptured evaporator or a hole in a connection, condenser, hose, or compressor.

If your ventilation fuse blows, you will then lose power to your blower motor. The blower motor is what pushes the air through your vents. Without a blower motor, you will lose air circulation.

Like a blown fuse, a bad relay can cause the electrical current to become nonexistent. A bad relay will cause you to lose power to your blower motor, which will cause you to lose air circulation.

Your blower motor is what is needed to push cool air through your vents. Your blower motor can malfunction due to age and wear and tear. Your blower motor can also be damaged in an accident.

There are two areas where air can enter your vehicle: vents below your windshield and the air recirculated from the cab of your vehicle. If one of these intakes becomes blocked, you will notice that your AC is providing you with little to no air. Common causes for a blocked intake could be debris or a dirty or clogged filter. It is important to make sure that these vents are kept clear of debris.

Damage and/or a leak in one of the belts or hoses used by the air conditioner will prevent proper airflow from the vents, causing your air conditioner to not work properly.

The condenser helps transfer heat from the passenger compartment. It helps the refrigerant go from gas back to its liquid state when it removes the heat. If your condenser becomes blocked or damaged, your AC will no longer be able to push cold air out of your vents into the cabin of the vehicle.

Cabin air filters collect debris, dirt, and moisture. It is important to have a clean air filter in your vehicle, as a dirty filter can cause multiple problems. A few of those issues can range from your AC having an odor when it is turned on to causing your AC to no longer be able to pump out cold air.

Debris can get into your air vents, especially if your vehicle is parked outside and not driven often. Dirt and leaves can build up in the vents if not properly maintained. When your air conditioner is turned on, the airflow can cause the debris to move around, causing your air conditioner to make some unpleasant sounds.

A blocked expansion valve can stop your air conditioner from providing you with cold air. The reason you may no longer be receiving cold air out of your air conditioner is because the expansion valve has become blocked and is no longer able to allow the refrigerant to get to the evaporator.

If your AC has any leaks, it may have a low refrigerant level. A recharge of your air conditioner can help fix this issue. We will first find the cause of the leak and then fix it. The leak will need to be fixed first for us to keep the Freon charge. EPA regulations require that the leak is fixed first before the AC can be recharged. If for some reason your AC system is losing a charge and we cannot find the leak, we will fill up the system with refrigerant and add a fluorescent UV dye. We will then ask you to drive the vehicle for a couple of weeks with the AC system fully charged. Once the AC performance starts to deteriorate, the vehicle will need to come back in to see where the dye/refrigerant is leaking and then we repair the leak and recharge the system a second time.
