BMW of Houston Midtown invites you to understand why your car ac is not cooling.
Your vehicle’s AC not working is most likely caused by a freon leak or a failing compressor. Though these might be the most obvious reasons for the air-conditioner not working inside the car, a dirty cabin filter or a bad belt may also be the problem. No matter how or why when you are expecting the relief of cold air it is extremely irritating anytime it doesn’t come through. Don’t get in a panic, because our experienced auto technicians will easily resolve any problems and are ready to cool off your interior long before the first heat wave arrives.
The most likely reason your AC stopped working is your car’s AC is leaking. The vehicle’s air-conditioner unit needs a freon to cool the ambient air temperature and produce refreshing cold air. Whenever there is a freon leak on your car there is no way to cool the air. Another source that your AC isn’t producing cold air is that your car is a hybrid. The air-conditioning system is powered by the engine, so if your vehicle is in EV mode then the engine has stopped running and won’t power the air-conditioner.
If your air-conditioner is turned on and the fan isn’t working then there might be a defective air-conditioning fuse. Fuses help protect car components from a power surge and even though it might just need to be repaired, however, if your air-conditioner fuse keeps popping then it’s likely there’s a larger issue. A low level of air-conditioner refrigerant or a possible leak might also be the issue, which our highly skilled technicians can repair.
If your AC is leaking, you could easily tell by the damp spots in your car or puddles under your car where it’s parked. For your AC to pump cold air inside your car, it has to place all the moisture it absorbs from outside and should go through the evaporator drain pipe. One more cause might be the AC Refrigerant amount being too low which leads to the evaporator coils freezing up and an overflow of condensation. You should also have an eye out for faulty seals in the AC compartment or the air-conditioner’s air filters if this issue continues to happen.
