SOURCE: ac inop -button flashes when pressed 2007 GMC Acadia

{: ) Pressing the a/c button will turn the air conditioning (A/C) compressor on and off. When air conditioning is selected, an indicator light comes on to show that the air conditioning has been activated. Pressing this button when the outside temperature is too cool for air conditioning will make the air conditioning indicator flash three times and then turn off to show that the air conditioning mode is not available. If the air conditioning is on and the outside temperature drops below a temperature which is too cool for air conditioning to be effective, the air conditioning light will turn off to show that the air conditioning mode has been canceled.

{: ) Liftgate Access Plug is located at the bottom center area of the liftgate trim panel.
From inside the vehicle lower the second and third, if applicable, row seats.
Use a small flat-bladed tool to remove the access plug from the liftgate lower interior trim panel. It is like a round and smooth plastic grommet.
Push on a silver lever located on the right just through the access hole to unlock the liftgate.
Open the liftgate from the outside of the vehicle using the exterior handle.

2011 Nissan Juke AC problem

If you are experiencing AC problems with your 2011 Nissan Juke, there could be various reasons behind the issue. Diagnosing the specific problem will require a closer inspection or assistance from a qualified mechanic. Here are some common AC problems and their possible causes:
  1. Weak or Warm Air Flow: If the air coming from the AC vents is weak or not cool enough, it could be due to low refrigerant levels caused by a leak in the AC system. Other possible causes may include a malfunctioning compressor, faulty condenser, or issues with the blower motor.
  2. AC Not Blowing Cold Air: This issue could be caused by a refrigerant leak, a malfunctioning compressor, or a faulty expansion valve. Additionally, a clogged or restricted AC condenser could also result in the AC not blowing cold air.
  3. Strange Noises from AC: Unusual noises such as grinding, rattling, or hissing sounds coming from the AC system could indicate problems with the compressor, condenser, or blower motor. It's important to have these noises checked promptly to prevent further damage.
  4. AC Cycling On and Off: If the AC system frequently turns on and off, it could be due to low refrigerant levels, a faulty pressure switch, or issues with the AC clutch or compressor.
  5. Electrical Issues: Problems with the AC system's electrical components, such as fuses, relays, or wiring, can also lead to AC malfunctions.
To diagnose and resolve the AC problem accurately, it's recommended to take your Nissan Juke to a certified mechanic or an authorized Nissan service center. They have the necessary expertise, diagnostic tools, and experience to identify the specific issue and perform the required repairs. Attempting to fix AC problems without proper knowledge and tools can lead to further damage or safety risks.
Remember that regular maintenance and servicing of your vehicle's AC system can help prevent issues and ensure optimal performance. It's a good idea to have your AC system inspected and serviced at recommended intervals to keep it in good working condition.

Why does my ac quit working in traffic

At 30 miles per hr you get enough air flow through the condenser coil to keep the A/C cooling. Check the cooling fan at the radiator. It should run when the A/C is on no matter what the engine temperature is. When the freon is low enough to affect cooling it will do the same in traffic or on the road. Engine coolant level has no affect on the A/C,.The condenser is forward of the radiator. You didn't say the car was running hot.

HOOD RELEASE CABLE BROKE, HOW DO I OPEN HOOD?

After trying to pull the cable from under the hood and accidently working it loose from the latch, I had a mechanic come out to the vehicle, and he drilled two 3/4" holes that lined up with the latch mounting screws so that he could dismount the latch mechanism from the body of the Jeep. Then the whole latch assembly came loose with the hood. Next, he reattached the latch, and then attached a wire to the latch so that it can be pulled to work the mechanism without the old cable at all, though at the expense of security, because now it can be opened from outside the vehicle, but it's difficult to find unless you know what you're looking for. This might be a little more than most people are willing to do, but it worked for me.
