What Is the A/C Service Process?

When you make an appointment for A/C service, an auto technician will first measure the pressure in your A/C as well as the temperature output. If these readings aren't normal, then the technician will try to diagnose the problem. Your technician will look for obvious signs of a leak such as a cracked line. If there is no visible damage, he or she may use tracer dye to see where a leak is occurring. Any leaks will be repaired and fluids topped up. Your auto technician will also inspect the components of the air conditioner making sure they are in good operating condition. If necessary, they can make repairs or replace parts. These services can be performed after you discover a problem with the A/C, but annual A/C maintenance service helps keep problems at bay.

If you have any questions about A/C Repairs and Maintenance of your vehicle, our friendly team is always available to answer your questions.

Keep your vehicle’s A/C in Top Condition

Reduce the risk of problems with your car’s A/C with these steps:

  • Run your A/C at least once a week for 10 minutes on the highest setting to maintain pressure in the compressor.
  • Run the system on defrost mode for 5 to 10 minutes weekly to avoid mildew.
  • Use your A/C in winter to remove humidity from the vehicle cabin.
  • Get annual A/C service.

Signs of Problems with your vehicle’s A/C

Signs of Problems with your vehicle’s A/C

Some signs that you have an issue with your car’s A/C are obvious, while others are more subtle. Make an appointment for A/C service if you notice any of these issues:

  • Your car is not cooling as much as it used to. Obviously, if the A/C isn’t keeping you cool, then there is likely to be an issue with the system. If you still feel hot after running the air conditioner or if you don’t feel cold air coming from the vents, then your vehicle probably needs service.
  • You see fluid leaks under your car. There are many different kinds of fluid leaks that can occur with cars, but leaking coolant, refrigerant, and compressor oil are common culprits. If these fluids are leaking, the A/C will not work at all or will have diminished power.
  • There are water spots on your floor mats or dash. When this happens, it usually means that the water drain from the A/C is clogged. This will eventually prevent the A/C from working.
  • You notice strange sounds or smells when you run the A/C. If you hear knocking, squeaking, or other strange noises when you turn on the air conditioner, then something is likely wrong with the compressor. A strange odor from the A/C could indicate a blockage or that there is a problem with your air filters.
