The problem is the venting door. There are vent doors that are used to switch between AC and heat. Some vehicles use a cable that opens and closes the vent doors, other cars use vacuum and some are electric.

Whatever the case may be, if you feel the cold on the tubes, then the AC is likely working, you have to get the vent door working

    The vent doors are located in the ducting system, beneath the dash. When you find it, you have to figure out why it isn't working

    Possibly. I would first determine how the temp control works, if it be a cable or pneumatic.control, and see if it is working. You may have to disassemble the dash to do this

Air conditioning system not working in driver's compartment

Could be a damper stuck or not responding. If it keeps air going through heater core, you'll never feel cold air.
Have you verified the compressor clutch is engaged and compressor turning?

2004 ford expolorer air conditioning will not stay on

I would suspect the AC compressor cycling switch (located in low pressure line from compressor) or a AC cutoff wide open throttle relay ( in under hood fuse and relay center) would be causing this problem.

Problem with heating and air conditioning. The driver's side is blowing hot air and the passenger side is blowing cold air

Air Conditioner blows warm air
  1. Air conditioner system is discharged. Have the system evacuated, charged and leak tested by an MVAC certified technician, utilizing approved recovery/recycling equipment. Repair as necessary.
  2. Air conditioner compressor clutch not engaging. Check compressor clutch wiring, electrical connections and compressor clutch, and repair or replace as necessary.

Compressor turns, holds a charge but does not blow cold air even when I turn on the outside air it blows warm air

OK, this is air-conditioning 1-0-1

You say that i holds a charge, and the compressore turns, but does the comprressor cycle on and off, as this is indicating that there is enough charge, and once there is low pressure detected, it turns the compressor on, and when it reaches a high pressure, the compressor cycles off.

Lastly, when engine running and AC on, if you feel the 2 pipes going in to the firewall, one should be hot, the other should be cold ???...is this happening ???

When I turn on the ac it blow out hot air.

Do you hear the air conditioning compressor switch on (with the engine running) when you turn on the air conditioning from inside the car. Get a friend to turn on and off the air conditioning while you listen with the hood open engine running you should hear a clicking sound on and off each time the a/c is cycled on and off or the a/c clutch is not locking up the compressor. This may be due to many things (bad clutch, bad compressor, no power to controls or compressor clutch) but it could be a sign of low charge the system has a low pressure switch which prevents the system from being energized if the system has low refrigerant charge. By protecting itself it prevent catastrophic failure of the compressor and ensuing damage to the rest of the a/c system if the system looses it charge. You will need to have the system checked out by someone experienced in air conditioning work who will attach pressure gauges to your car and see if the refrigerant pressures are OK. The system naturally looses some refrigerant over time but if the system constantly looses charge then it has a leak that must be investigated and repaired before just recharging the system

My air conditioning is blowing hot air even after I put freon in it??? Any suggestions?

Hopefully you used a manifold gauge and wore the proper eye protection when you charged the system with R134a .
Bring it to an a/c repair shop Unless you have the proper testing equiptment this is a costly and dangerous adventure.
Likely causes anyone of the sensors in the system,defective compressor,defective on/off switch,defective relay, fan and lastly a leak.
Trust me take it to a repair shop yes a/c systems repairs are costlybut worth it.

No cold air w/air conditioner on for a 2004 GMC Envoy.

Can't go by the pressure. Ck the large lone coming out of firewall, should be col. Small line at ac condensor in front of radiator should be hot.

Static pressure on high side probably 80psI Running 30 on the low side and 1130. will vary depending on oiutside temp Hope this hekoped

Air Conditioning

Check your pressures again. Jump the pressure switch and see if this makes the compressor come on. If it does then jump it long enough to get some more freon into the system. This should give switch enough pressure.

Make sure your vacuum is good on the system before you fill.
