Town North Nissan invites you to understand why your vehicle ac is not cooling properly.
Your car’s air-conditioning is not working because of a freon leak or a bad compressor. Though these may be the obvious reasons for the air-conditioning not working in your vehicle, it might be something as simple as a bad compressor belt or a dirty cabin air filter. No matter how or why when you are expecting the sweet relief of ice-cold air it is incredibly disappointing whenever it doesn’t come through. Don’t sweat it though, because our well-versed technicians know what to spot and are ready to cool off your ride before the first heat wave arrives.
The most likely reason your air-conditioning stopped working is your vehicle’s air-conditioning is leaking. The car’s air-conditioning system needs a freon to cool the ambient air temperature which produces needed cold air. When there is a freon leak on your car there is no way to cool the air. Another reason for your AC not producing cold air is that your car is a hybrid. The AC system uses the engine power, your AC isn’t getting any power if your vehicle is in EV mode and the engine isn’t running.
If your AC is turned on and the fan isn’t working then you might have a blown AC fuse. These fuses protect car components from a power surge and while it might just need to get repaired, if the AC fuse continues to pop then it’s possible there’s a much larger problem at hand. There’s also a chance that the vehicle’s air-conditioning Compressor is affected by a low amount of air-conditioning refrigerant or a possible leak that needs to be looked at.
If you’ve seen some damp spots in or around your vehicle recently, that might be a result of an AC leak in your car. When your air-conditioner is producing cold air inside your vehicle, it needs to place all the moisture it’s used from the outdoors and should go through the evaporator drain. One more cause could be the AC Refrigerant level being low which leads to the evaporator coils freezing up and an overflow of condensation. You should also keep a lookout for faulty seals in the air-conditioning compartment or the air-conditioning’s air filters if this problem continues to occur.
