  • In this video I explain why the A/C blows hot air at idle, at the stop light or when not moving and why it blows cold air when driving.

    Also check that the small condenser fan under the hood is blowing when you start your vehicle. The fan blades could just be stuck. If the fan isn’t blowing, take a screwdriver and tap the blades to see if they just needed to be freed up. Watch your fingers.

    What about the compressor if it bad? Will not have similar symptoms?

  • @mrsamsung8184
    @mrsamsung8184 11 месяцев назад +3

    And I see on here people questioning about the compressor clutch engaging on any car they also incorporate an AC compressor control valve in a lot of these cars that the compressor is engaged one hundred percent of the time even if your AC is off and that is the purpose of that valve in the compressor the symptoms would be that your gauge readings are almost correct but at idle the air gets a lot warmer that's usually a cooling fan problem or an AC compressor control valve only not the compressor itself

    Hey, I have a g35 with a p0024 and it gets 9 mpg which is terrible milege, I took it to the dealership and they said it could be magnetic retarders or faulty timing chain.(I watched your video on timing chain and I have no bad symptoms and my car idols, starts and accelerates very nicely.)Can you please tell me what the problem could be. I would really apreciate it

    • @Top5AutoRepairs
      @Top5AutoRepairs  Год назад +3

      Start by checking the timing chain. Issue could be caused by stretched timing chain, worn guides, weak tensioner etc...check connection and broken wires at the camshaft position sensor as well.

      @sunshui6114 2 месяца назад +3

      Means you need to bleed the pressure off. Hold the pin inside the thing down, it'll bubble green stuff. Hold it down until the pressure is in the range you need it to be and it should start cooling. Your ac system is OVER charged.

    You know I see different vehicles with different AC symptoms and I see a lot of questions on here with people trying to fix their own air conditioning if you guys are not mechanically inclined and you do not know how an AC system work you could be actually causing more problems for yourself

    • @AmericanOne9621
      @AmericanOne9621 11 месяцев назад +1

      It's impossible to see exactly what a AC system is doing when you don't use a regular set of AC gauges for the low side and also the high side. I guess these little blue low side hoses and refrigerant cans sell good. I've used the cans myself but I use a regular set of gauges.

    I did this. Filled in the green just as instructed. My car still blows hot when stopped but cool when driving. I can hear the compressor turning on and off quite a bit while stopped. Is it possible that air somehow got in the line and that is messing up the pressure?

      @@africanlifeempire8108 No. Pressures are all over the place. I was told by the mechanic that the compression is going bad. This is why it can be puzzling when you watch RUclips auto repair videos because the condition of each particular a/c system is different. I had so many RUclips "armchair" mechanics say, "It's this" or "It's that" when it was actually the other thing.

      Hello, I drive a Honda 2003 accord UK model, I've been going through hell with my car ac, changed compressor thrice and jst before it dies, It gives a sign of hot air at idle and only blows cold when my rpm was above 1000 rpm n gradually up to 2000rpm and now blows hot at all rpm. Am frustrated with spending money on short time fix with in the hands of some moron in a workshop suit claims to be an ac expert. Please, how did u fix yours and what was the failing signs, also what car do u drive. Thanks, hope to hear from you.

Well he had a big glass of STFU when it was in fact the wheel bearings. A nurse once laughed at me when I thought I had colon cancer. It turned out to be Stage IIIB colon cancer and I almost died.
