Folsom Lake Toyota invites you to understand why your vehicle air conditioning is not working properly.
Your car’s AC stopped working because of a bad compressor or a freon leak. Though these causes may be the simple to spot reasons that your AC isn’t cooling inside your car, it might be anything as simple as a bad compressor belt or a dirty cabin air filter. No matter how or why it can be very disappointing when cold air isn’t on to battle the hot weather outside. Don’t sweat it though, because our well-versed technicians are trained to easily resolve any problems and are there to cool off your interior before the first heat wave arrives.
The most likely reason the AC stopped cooling is because your vehicle’s air-conditioning started leaking. The car’s air-conditioning system needs freon to lower the ambient air temperature and creates some refreshing cold air. When there is a freon leak on your car there is no way to cool the air. Another reason that your air-conditioning isn’t producing cold air is because your car is a hybrid. The air-conditioning system is powered by the engine, meaning your AC won’t be getting any power if your vehicle is in EV mode and the engine isn’t running.
If your air-conditioner is on and the fan stopped blowing cold air then you may have a defective air-conditioner fuse. These fuses help protect vehicle components from a power surge and while it may just have to be repaired, however, if your air-conditioning fuse keeps popping then you likely have a much larger issue at hand. A low amount of air-conditioning refrigerant or a possible leak might also be the cause, which our very skilled technicians can repair.
If you’ve noticed any damp spots in or around your car recently, that could be because of an AC leak in your vehicle. When your air-conditioning is pumping cold air inside your car, it needs to place all of that moisture it uses from outside and flows through the evaporator drain. Another cause might be the AC Refrigerant level being low which leads to the evaporator coils freezing up and an overflow of condensation. You should also keep an eye out for faulty seals in the AC compartment or the AC’s air filters in case this problem keeps happening.
