You missed a very important part! The AC on Hyundai Tucson 2017 was blowing cold air for 5 seconds and then warm. On and off and I took it to three different body shops and they didn’t know what’s the problem! Everything was working fine except a small tiny thing called: Thermistor! Located at the dash right beside the gas pedal! 36$ CAD and my AC is Icy Cold! Thanks to Google and UA-cam that taught me this! Otherwise I would be spending this summer melting down
The small ac condenser fan, under the hood by the radiator, could just be stuck. Easy fix if so! Start your vehicle, open the hood, if the fan isn’t turning then take a screwdriver and tap one of the fan blades to “free it up”. Worked for me. Watch your fingers!
in 2010 i bought a 94 previa, didnt have ac, bought new compressor, condenser, drier, all expansion valves, evaporator, and tubing basically replaced the entire thing with help from a shop where i knew the owner. cost me 1200 plus parts, best investment i ever made, still have the van, it started not blowing as cold 12 years later so filled it with one of them cans and it got cold again. has been fine since. ill never own a car with non working ac.
Yes fuses do burn out on their own & DOES NOT mean something is wrong with the vehicle. They do get old and will need to be replaced at some point 👉 👈.
Happened to me when I turned AC on,it still not blowing cold,just cool. I went to local mechanic that I need recharge. He said that ac is fine. Checking engine light on later ,I went to check it out, radiator one fan stopped working. I have diagnosis. It's said that I need to change cooling thermostat. I replaced thermostat and radiator fan and still not blowing cold. I went back to local mechanic to let him do the job on my drum brakes. So when he test drive my car,he realized that my AC is not blowing cold when it hot outside after I kept telling him that my car need AC recharge Lol.
If I added Freon and it only worked for 2 weeks, what could possible be the reason? And does this mean those diagnoses in the video won't be necessary?

Hey everyone, My car optra/nubira/ lacetti is 10 years old. For about a year until a month back the AC performance sucked during daytime and was extremely good at night. But for a couple of weeks, it only blew hot air during daytime and nighttime. So, I took it to a car AC repair service. They checked the compressor and said it's good. But they changed the compressor control valve and refilled the gas. And that made the performance of AC like a new car. But all that's only for two days. Now, it's back to blowing hot air 😢. Could someone please tell me what the problem might be? Thank you for your help.
Nice Video! If I want to hook up the AC manifold to your car to do some measurements for the pressure, should I purge the blue and read lines from air once I connect them or no need as the air will not get into the system? please clarify thx
Thank you! I have a small recovering machine but never used it before, so I need a Freon tank or does it have one internally to recover the Freon? My car ac was working poorly a year ago and after changing pressure sensors, and adding Freon, I found out my fan wasn’t working. On a Lincoln Towncar there’s no ac fan as it’s only one fan so it started overheating the engine. A week or so ago, started working poorly again, I checked the amount of Freon that was a little bit low only so I added but went to far and had to remove a little, after that it blows hot air inside! The low pressure aluminum pipes are hot as well. I’ll be checking the fan clogged this weekend but would appreciate any insights here! Thank you folks!
Also, with Mitsubishi's like my boyfriend's 2020 Mirage, for some stupid reason the venting for the whole system goes through the glovebox. We found out the hard way that if you leave napkins in it, they will get sucked in and clog the system.😅
My air conditioning. Compressor is kicking in and out everything seems to be working right but it takes 30 minutes to an hour before it starts cooling. What's wrong with it

Ah, so that condenser fan should be coming on immediately when the ac is on and for me I noticed it's not most of the time. The ac had only been working when driving on highway so I'm assuming that the only time I'm getting cold ac is when the fan comes on for the radiator?? sounds like a relay or fuse maybe as I just replaced the fan resistor. strange thing is, the fan came on right away last night and blew cold air when I really didn't need it, but today at noon the fan wouldn't come on, so it just blew warm air until I drove around for about 10 mins, then the cold air kicked in quickly. I'm hoping there's a fuse. Thanks for sharing the knowledge
I had to replace a leaking accumulator on my 2004 Ford Crown Victoria LX and upon disconnecting the upper AC line to the evaporator core, I had to pull really hard to disconnect it. When I charged my AC with the machine a mist of freon sprayed from the evaporator core housing around the top side line. Does this mean I broke the seal around the line or did I crack the evaporator core inside the housing? Just need to know before I replace the whole evaporator core. 🤦🏻♂️
Symptoms: marginally lower temp when AC is on. The high pressure line is warm to the touch while in operation. No condensation on the ground while in operation. The system still defrost the windshield. What could my problem be?
my AC smells weird when I turn it on, and I know there’s a leak somewhere because the car AC has run out, when I filled it three days ago…what are my options in fixing it? I was advised to put some sort of solution that fixes the leaks, but apparently it’s temporary.
Everything works on my truck. The coolant must be leaking,when I charge it the compressor works,then it slowly quits cooling. A friend said to look at the low pressure valve. He said the needle valve could be leaking. How do you check and change it?
So i found my 2010 honda crv ac not blowing cold. I check the fuse but cant tell if its bad or not. I checked the compressor its still spinning. I put freon and it went straight to red for instructions. Ehat should i do?
I have a faulty AC and dont need it and dont want to repair it. It is constantly running, I can't switch it of. Can I dissable it by removing the AC fuse?
Not sure if my ac clutch is engaging. 02 GMC SIERRA HD 6.0 L. Do you have a way to test to see the clutch engaging and disengaging? Also, do they get stuck sometimes and need a little rap to get freed up?
another secret is the car shops dont tell you the same place you add the frion has a plug and you need to decompress hot air out of the engine similar to deflating a bike tube tire..then you inject the frion...so now because theres no pressure in there it will circulate
Why does my ac blow cold air in the morning when it's not so hot outside than in the evening when it's hot with temperatures up to 95??? Can you help me out

Thank you I found my issue! I have no ac compressor...
I like your tip saying that both fans should turn on immediately upon engaging the AC compressor switch..thank you!

Could have saved me weeks of frustration in 10seconds had I seen this sooner. Thank you!
It look like you get really baked and tell the best jokes
All of the mechanics I know are super straight edge. Just like your typical chef or carpenter.
People don’t understand there is a limit to how many degrees an AC can physically cool.
in 2010 i bought a 94 previa, didnt have ac, bought new compressor, condenser, drier, all expansion valves, evaporator, and tubing basically replaced the entire thing with help from a shop where i knew the owner. cost me 1200 plus parts, best investment i ever made, still have the van, it started not blowing as cold 12 years later so filled it with one of them cans and it got cold again. has been fine since. ill never own a car with non working ac.
You are a blessing to self taught mechanics. 🤝🏾 Thank you.
BLend doors are common too, especially if blowing cold out some vent and not other
My problem was low engine coolant. As soon as I added engine coolant to the reservoir and the radiator, my AC went back to blowing cold.

Excellent explanation
Simple to the point..great job
Don't forget to check the temperature blend door actuator it could be stuck on heat because the door can get stuck and the car will only blow heat.
If I added Freon and it only worked for 2 weeks, what could possible be the reason? And does this mean those diagnoses in the video won't be necessary?
