A/C BLOWS HOT AIR WHEN VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING BUT A/C BLOWS COLD AIR WHEN DRIVING

[@DerekDTX35]

Also check that the small condenser fan under the hood is blowing when you start your vehicle. The fan blades could just be stuck. If the fan isn’t blowing, take a screwdriver and tap the blades to see if they just needed to be freed up. Watch your fingers.

[@jamestillman3150]

I had this issue but it had full coolant. I had a bunch of dead bugs and dirt clogging up the coils on the condenser. I just sprayed it off really well and it was good

[@martinolivas319]

Great video, but for me I just had the high pressure hose fail due to an over crimped fitting. I replaced the hose and orifice tube, recharged the system and it does not want to get very cold even on the highway

[@peterrudy9207]

Change your cabin air filter , regularly .

[@mrsamsung8184]

And I see on here people questioning about the compressor clutch engaging on any car they also incorporate an AC compressor control valve in a lot of these cars that the compressor is engaged one hundred percent of the time even if your AC is off and that is the purpose of that valve in the compressor the symptoms would be that your gauge readings are almost correct but at idle the air gets a lot warmer that's usually a cooling fan problem or an AC compressor control valve only not the compressor itself

[@briandorsett9730]

Not for a Honda. It could be that one electric fan at the backside of the radiator is not working. FYI

[@deonengelbrecht5951]

With this low temperature, will the evaporator not freeze up..?

[@tariqalmaashani877]

Thanks for the valuable information. What about the compressor if it bad? Will not have similar symptoms?

[@Top5AutoRepairs]

Yes

[@RhondaRodriguez-rg4my]

Yes but you can actually stand outside your vehicle and listen and watch for the ac compressor to kick on or off and if it doesn't then you know it's bad and in my experience the air is not at all cool when the ac compressor dies. I'm not claiming to be a mechanic and this is my experience only so don't go looking to bite my head off and correct me, all you "know-it-allers"!

[@purplishus98]

Recently checked refrigerant and is good, also the cabin filter. Had front AC for a week and then hot air ever since. The back works fine no issues on my 03 MDX so at this point I don't know what else to look for. I've just been driving in the heat since with my windows down and having to suck it up lol. Any advice?

[@user-followyeshua]

Mine will only start blowing cold air when I start driving, but I can park and as long as I keep the fan on high, the cold air will stay blowing, but if I turn it down and then back up, it'll blow hot until I drive again. what do you think is wrong?

[@99resecup]

My 03 is doing the same thing but estimating its charged based off the ounces in the cans we use after vacuum the system. Also notice my compressor never cycles off. Any ideas or suggestions?

[@zackgambrell5391]

The ac clutch is probably welded stuck

[@raulmartinez429]

I was told that car freeon only gets cold wen there is a leak on the system otherwise would never runn low nor had to be recharged. Is that true?

[@aaaaii6511]

Yes if you have a leak, then it will need to be fix or replaced, if it was good forever, it would never have to be replaced

[@gustavomolina8399]

Yes. Usually leak from the connections where the o rings are worn

Hey, I have a g35 with a p0024 and it gets 9 mpg which is terrible milege, I took it to the dealership and they said it could be magnetic retarders or faulty timing chain.(I watched your video on timing chain and I have no bad symptoms and my car idols, starts and accelerates very nicely.)Can you please tell me what the problem could be. I would really apreciate it

[@Top5AutoRepairs]

Start by checking the timing chain. Issue could be caused by stretched timing chain, worn guides, weak tensioner etc...check connection and broken wires at the camshaft position sensor as well.

My ac works fine when I'm driving, it cuts off when I'm stationary and I'd find the compressor kicking on every 45 secs and runs for 10 seconds and does it in a cycle I'd say. I changed compressor, condenser, refrigerant, hi and low pressures are normal. I've noticed when the engine is cold in the morning, the ac runs perfectly fine while stationary. However, when i hit the road and then in traffic and not moving, it cuts out. HELP

[@sunshui6114]

Means you need to bleed the pressure off. Hold the pin inside the thing down, it'll bubble green stuff. Hold it down until the pressure is in the range you need it to be and it should start cooling. Your ac system is OVER charged.

[@enowdaphne5818]

My AC works the reverse. When idling it blows cold but why driving it blows hot air

[@photograffito]

mine does this as well but then it also overheats at idle and then temperature goes back to normal when driving. What could that be? I have no codes or a check engine light on.

[@jcsgarage3679]

Sounds like not enough air flow. Depending on your vehicle you might either a bad fan clutch or your electric fans might not be kicking on

[@dupree233]

check your thermostat

[@mrsamsung8184]

You know I see different vehicles with different AC symptoms and I see a lot of questions on here with people trying to fix their own air conditioning if you guys are not mechanically inclined and you do not know how an AC system work you could be actually causing more problems for yourself

[@AmericanOne9621]

It's impossible to see exactly what a AC system is doing when you don't use a regular set of AC gauges for the low side and also the high side. I guess these little blue low side hoses and refrigerant cans sell good. I've used the cans myself but I use a regular set of gauges.

Hello, I drive a Honda 2003 accord UK model, I've been going through hell with my car ac, changed compressor thrice and jst before it dies, It gives a sign of hot air at idle and only blows cold when my rpm was above 1000 rpm n gradually up to 2000rpm and now blows hot at all rpm. Am frustrated with spending money on short time fix with in the hands of some moron in a workshop suit claims to be an ac expert. Please, how did u fix yours and what was the failing signs, also what car do u drive. Thanks, hope to hear from you.

So there's like infinite reasons why this could be happening. I need help badly. I just wasted money having some people put Freeon on the car which didn't solve the problem.
