BMW of Tulsa invites you to learn why your car ac is not cooling.
Your car’s air-conditioning not working is likely because of a failing compressor or a freon leak. Though these causes may be the most obvious reasons that your AC isn’t working inside the car, a bad compressor belt or a dirty cabin air filter may also be the culprit. No matter why or how, it’s super disappointing when ice-cold air isn’t there to battle the hot weather outside. Don’t sweat it though, because our experienced auto technicians will easily resolve these problems and are ready to get your vehicle ready before the first heat wave arrives.
The most likely reason your air-conditioning isn’t working is the car’s air-conditioner started leaking. Your car’s air-conditioning unit uses freon to lower the ambient air temperature which creates some refreshing cold air. Anytime you want that cool air, it won’t be possible if there’s a freon leak happening. Another source for your air-conditioning not producing cold air is because the vehicle is a hybrid. The air-conditioning system needs the engine power, your AC won’t be receiving power if your car is using EV mode and the engine stops running.
If your air-conditioner is turned on but the fan stopped working then there might be a blown AC fuse. Fuses protect vehicle components from a possible power surge and even though it may just have to get repaired, if your air-conditioner fuse keeps popping then it’s possible you have a much larger problem at hand. A low level of AC refrigerant or a possible leak could also be the cause, which our very skilled technicians can look at.
If your air-conditioner is leaking, you could tell by random damp spots in your vehicle or puddles seen under your vehicle when it’s parked. When your air-conditioning is producing cold air inside your vehicle, it has to place all the moisture it absorbs from outside and flows down the evaporator drain. One more cause might be the AC Refrigerant amount being too low which leads to an overflow of condensation since the evaporator coils will start to freeze. You should also have an eye out for faulty seals in the air-conditioning compartment or the AC’s air filters if the issue continues to happen.
