Why Does My Car’s Air Conditioning Smell?

What happens is when you use your air conditioning system it makes condensation. Water remains in the evaporator. This can cause mold and mildew. Since it’s not anything you could see it’s not on your mind. When you turn on your air conditioning the blower motor pushes air out of your vents and defrosters. YUK! Yes, you breathe that in. Replacing your cabin air filter helps by removing the old stinky odors that have built up over time like food, dogs, and cigarettes. Plus it also removes all the pollen and stinky mold smell.

Why Is My Air Conditioning Not Blowing?

Ryan's Servicenter

If your vehicle's Air conditioning isn't blowing air, there are a few things that can cause it. The Air Conditioning may need recharging. There may be a leak in the refrigerant. Unfortunately, you cant see this leak. The refrigerant disappears as it hits the air. We add a special dye to the system that helps find the leak. The cooling fan isn't working. This is very important because it also helps keep your engine cool as well. The Condensor is blocked. As you can see there are different things that can happen. Call us, ask questions. We want you to remain cool all summer. 609-693-2966 #airconditioning #carac #hotcar #fixmyac,#likes #like #follow #likeforlikes #love #instagood #instagram #followforfollowback #followme #photooftheday #bhfyp #instalike…

How Diesel Motors Work

Preventive Maintenance, Ryan's Servicenter

Diesel motors work by compressing just the air. The compression builds up the air temperature inside. When this happens the fuel converts to very fine particles and it lights suddenly. Diesel motors might be either two-stroke or four-stroke meaning that the piston travels around 2 or 4 times in one cycle while turning the crankshaft. Just a little FYI.

Why is my Air Conditioning Blowing Warm?

Preventive Maintenance, Ryan's Servicenter, Summer Maintenance

Why is my Air Conditioning Blowing Warm? Reasons why your Air Conditioning is not cold enough is your air conditioning system uses refrigerant to create cold air. There may not be enough refrigerant in your system. There can be pinholes and leaks that allow the refrigerant to escape. Rubber Hoses can fall apart inside causing the pieces to can get stuck in the Filters and other parts. Which stops proper circulation. This can also cause your Compressor to freeze up.Sometimes a worn belt causes slippage and also adds to the problem. If your air conditioning isn't working properly make an appointment and let our ASE technicians take a look.

Serpentine Belt

Ryan's Servicenter

The serpentine belt gets powered by the engine as it turns. The belt runs your alternator, air conditioning, and power steering pump. On certain vehicles, it also runs the water pump, radiator fan, and power brakes. If the serpentine belt breaks your battery won't last. The car can not run on the battery. If this happens the engine could overheat before the battery dies. Your steering and braking could also be affected. Checking for belt cracks no longer applies to newer belts, it depends on the belt thickness. We have new tools to measure the depth of the belt.
