Air Conditioner quites during idle

if it reached temp it will turn off

Good idea is to drain the coolant from your radiator, then replace the hose that is leaking and then fill with coolant to the proper level. Drive your car and have heater running to remove any air in the system.

Did you get an answer? We just took ours in for compressor replacement to the tune of $1000.

The A/C may need to be recharged.

You have a fan temp sensor located on the engine block that controls when fan turns on or off.

check the compressor with the ac running and make sure the compressor is kicking in and out in not the compressor might be bad or te clutch on te front of te compressor, sometimes u can get to much freon in them to i did it ounce

hello,seem you need to send your car to authorized dealer to scan the problem,maybe the solution is only synchronizing all the flap,ty

CHECK YOUR CONDENSER IT MIGHT NOT BE GROUNDED. MINE DID THE SAME THING IT WOULD COME ON AND THE CONDENSER WOULD RUN FOR A FEW MIN. THEN KICK OFF AND NOT COME BACK ON MAKING IT BLOW COOL AND NOT COLD

the a/c condenser has a fan in front ( there is actually 2 fans if you sit on the car it will be fan on right side ) if this fan does not
come on immediately when you are parked and engine in idle
there is a problem with power to it, or motor failure. If you drive it
on the highway and a/c operates fine that's because air is circulating though condenser (thats what the fan is supposed to do at idle or slow traffic)

Possible solution for susuns: turns out my problem was an improper freon charge. If your problem is the same as mine your a/c cools very well, but stops blowing air after about 20 minutes. If so, your evaporator core is freezing over and the ice is blocking air flow. Also after parking the truck water will continue to drip from the truck for a long time. To test this theory next time it occurs, switch the selector to vent and the fan to high. You should notice the air flow return within 5-10 minutes or less, however the air will still be quite cold due to the ice formed on the core. If all this fits your situation, take your truck to an experienced technician and have the freon pressures checked. My system needed to be charged a little on the high side to prevent the freezing up.
Hope this helps, capn0623
