Auto Air Conditioning Repair in Tempe, AZ

Having trouble with your Air Conditioning system in your vehicle?

Need auto AC repair or service? Is your car’s AC blowing warm? Not blowing air through the vents at all? We at Elite Auto Repair obviously repair and service auto air conditioning systems but also want you to understand what we do in our repair shop every day. It helps you understand what went wrong and what we have to do to repair the issue. Automotive Air Conditioning systems are not that complicated but when they stop working, especially here in the Phoenix (Tempe, Chandler, Etc..) area, you know it. There are several components in the system and when you know what they all do you can start to narrow down the possible problem areas (see auto air conditioning video further below).

Here is a simplistic trouble shooting list to help aid you in determining the source of the the problem you may be experiencing:

Warm or Hot Air Blowing on Cold Setting:

• Is the air temperature coming our of the vents not as cold as it should be? This could be an indication that some of the Freon has leaked out of your AC system, the cooling fans are not operating correctly, the condenser (small radiator type unit next to the cooling radiator) has air flow obstructions, or the compressor is starting to fail.
• Warm air coming out of the vents? This could be many things. It could be that all the Freon has escaped the system, the compressor has failed, pressure sensors have failed, cooling fans have failed or it could be many other items.

Weak AC Airflow:

• No air coming out of the vents? This could be a faulty blower motor or switch that controls the blower motor.

Unpleasant Odors:

• Foul or musty smells when the AC is running? A thorough AC system cleaning can eliminate unpleasant odors. Additionally, replacing your cabin air filter can help.

Strange Noises:

• Unusual sounds, such as squealing or grinding, or screeching when the AC is on? The culprit can be a clogged filter or blocked vent. High pitched whistling sounds often indicate a clogged evaporator core. It could also be an issue with belts in your engine and completely unrelated to your AC. Immediate inspection to identify the issue and prevent potential AC system failures, or other engine problems.
