SOURCE: AC compressor will not stay on during hot days

THE COMPRESSOR TRIPS DUE TO TWO REASONS, FIRST ONE IS THAT EXCESS GAS IS CHARGED IN COMPRESSOR CIRCIT AND DUE TO THIS COMPRESSOR OVERLOADS AND TRIPS. THE SECOND ONE MAY BE DUE TO THERMOSATIC VALVE LOCATED IN CHILLER (IN SIDE CAR SWITCH BOARD/DASH BOARD). FROM [email protected]

Hi.

The R134a is colorless. In its dyed version it will be red. If the system has been flushed properly the dark gray color of the fluid coming out from the service port is probably due to the fact that the R134 is mixed with oil inside the AC system. By flushing the lines you get rid of the refrigerant inside the system but you do not flush the oil that is there to maintain and lubricate the parts of the system. Test the system and ensure that you do not use more R134a than specified. The oil getting mixed to refrigerant shouldn't be matter of concern. If the system is still not working, there may be an additional problem, or the flushing did not get rid completely of the original gas charge. If system was not flushed properly, by using a gauge you will notice pressure going up too soon before completing the recharge.

The system needs to be cleared of r12. Then there are two r134a fittings to put on the system ports you have (they screw on). then you can fill with r134a. No need to change any thing else.

91honda prelude ac pressures good, no cooling

Sounds like low charge or poss defective AC compressor or the expansive valve has moisture in it. Did you pull a vacuum on the system for 45 minutes before adding refrigerant?

On my BMW 325XI Wagon, the ac is not cooling, the drier, expansion valve, compressor & ac control module have been replaced. Starts to cool as low as 65 degrees & then compressor shuts off.

sounds like unproper ac evacuation before charging the freon to your ac system. do a proper evacuetion to the system check the ac compressor oil charge the proper freon & amount check the vehicle tag for the amount of freon under the wood close to the radiator

AC does not blow cool air. They put a new compressor in, but that did not fix problem. Now they say it is the condensor. I don't think they know.

did 'they' check the pressures on the low and high side after the compressor replacement? low pressure with a full charge on the low side would indicate a blockage. unless you had massive compressor failure (metal shavings in the lines) then most likely the condenser is O.K. the most common problem is the expansion valve sticks and doesn't allow the refrigerant to circulate fast enough to cool.

Hey I am haveing a problem with My 2500HD ac system. I have changed The Condensor, evaporator, and the Compressor. I have charged it to the correct levels. It blows cool air, but it doesn't get cold....

Did you change the Receiver/ Drier and the Orfice Tube/ Expansion Valve? The Receiver/ Drier takes moisture out of the system and the Orfice Tube/ Expansion Valve controls the Hot/ Cold air. If that is bad it may not be opening or closing fully which would not let your A/C get as cool as it supposed to.

Ac compressor does not turn on when car has been sitting & it's hot outside. Works fine in the morning.

either the freon charge is about 1/3 low, or the expansion valve needs to be replaced. Freon is getting into the evaporator, but not in great enough volume to cool the air unless it is coming in cool to start with. check your ac charge, and if it is full, then have it emptied, change out the expansion valve, and recharge it

I haver a 1989 cadi. and the air condi. compressor kicks on and offa and doesn't cool

if the compressor kicks on and off and doesn't cool this is the first sign of not having enough charge in the system. the a/c clutch will always kick on and off while running becuase this is dictated by the expansion valve which regulates the system, however you should have cool air about 50 degrees F for 134a at 35 psi on lowside and 130 150 psi on high side. the undercharge can becaused by degration of the 134a overtime or a leak in the system. have a certified ac tech look at the system and do a vaccum check for leaks if it holds a vaccum for 15 minutes at -29psi then there is no leak and the system just needs recharging.. please rate this

Air conditioning not cooling properly

It sure sounds like a restriction, but you seem to have covered most all the bases I would (I am a ASE Master technician) see if the fixed orifice is plugged or restricted??, maybe the system is freezing up, is the compressor cycling switch set correctly to approx 28-32 psi??
