You’ll notice the air seems to be getting warmer over time. This sign usually warns you before the compressor dies completely. Hot air could also be a sign that your refrigerant is low.
Hot air is a sign of AC compressor failure. Still, if your AC system hasn’t been maintained, you might find yourself with hot air instead. The whole point of turning on your vehicle’s AC is to get cold air to come through the vents. Turn your AC off to see if the sound stops and then back on again to see if it resumes. These sounds are the result of internal components, such as the bearings, going bad.
Once this part begins to fail, it might grind or whine when it’s activated. You might hear some strange noises when you flip on your vehicle’s air conditioner and if you do, it’s probably the compressor. If you notice any of the following, however, bring your car, truck, or utility vehicle into Auto Solutions for an AC compressor test because this part could be going bad. Factory maintenance on your automobile’s AC will keep you comfortable every time you turn it on. Because the weather is tropical, many people run their vehicles’ air conditioners all year long, too. This is why we have so many snowbirds in the winter.

The refrigerant then moves through the A/C lines and into the condenser, where the refrigerant cools as heat is released outside of the passenger compartment, and the refrigerant returns to a liquid.įor the system to work optimally, the system must have the proper amount of refrigerant and be free of contaminants. While in a gas state, the refrigerant passes through the evaporator, capturing heat. Inside this closed system, the refrigerant is exposed to high and low pressure, forcing it to change states between gas and liquid in order to capture and then release heat. The compressor, driven by the vehicle’s drive belt, pumps the refrigerant through the A/C system. Your vehicle’s air conditioning system, or A/C, cools and removes moisture from the air inside of your vehicle using three main components: the compressor, the condenser and the evaporator. The Jiffy Lube ® A/C evacuation and recharge is designed for periodic maintenance rather than A/C repair, but rest assured that Jiffy Lube ® can recommend the next steps to be taken to get you’re A/C system up and running. Jiffy Lube ® does not recommend servicing systems with detected leaks or damage. If no leaks or damage are found, they evacuate the refrigerant from the system, vacuum test and recharge the air conditioning system using the appropriate refrigerant according to your vehicle manufacturer's specification.
Then the team checks the operation of the air conditioning compressor.
Jiffy Lube ® visually inspects the air conditioning compressor drive belt, serpentine belt and all accessible components for cracks, leaks and damage. A properly working A/C keeps you and everyone else in the vehicle comfortable and cool all the way to your destination. A vehicle without cool air conditioning can be a sweaty and uncomfortable ride.
