      How weather affects Car AC Repair

      Do you plan to take your vehicle to a place like Garden City, SC with prolonged heat/cold or humidity in the next 3 months? Please consider the following impact on your vehicle:

      Heat is generated very quickly due to the friction between the brake pads and the brake rotors, so the brake system will remain warm long after the vehicle has been parked in Garden City, SC. Heavy braking can overheat the brakes, leading you to experience brake fade that reduces the efficiency of the brakes and lengthens the distance your vehicle comes to a complete halt. When engine oil is thinner due to heat, there is increased risk of leaks occurring. Additionally, higher temperaturestemperatires as in Garden City, SC can lead to insufficient lubrication, resulting in sludge formation. oil flow might be lowered and can impede your vehicle's overall performance.

      High Humidity such as in Garden City, SC increases the likelihood of condensation inside the headlight housing. Water and electricity don't mix, which may cause a short circuit leading to failure of your lightbulb. In addition, any condensation water coming in contact with a hot light bulb may cause the bulb to break. Many different sensors in your vehicle let its car computer know if a potential problem is detected because they sense temperatures, pressures, filling level etc. to be out of normal range. Excess moisture from heavy humidity in Garden City, SC might cause the sensors to trip inadvertently and create a false positive, meaning they signal a problem even when there really isn't one. Every time a warning or the check engine light is on, get it diagnosed by a professional before you worry about the malfunction of your car.

      Symptoms of a bad car AC

      The most common symptoms that your vehicle's air conditioning is having problems are low air from the vents, warm air, and temperature stuck at a specific setting. These symptoms are enough for mechanics to know where to start checking. Read about more common AC symptoms below:

      1. Weak or No Airflow from Vents

      Cause: A clogged cabin air filter, failing blower motor, or blockage in the AC system can prevent proper airflow.

      2. AC Blowing Warm Air

      Cause: Low refrigerant levels, a failing compressor, or a malfunctioning expansion valve can result in warm air instead of cool air.

      3. Unusual Noises When AC is On

      Cause: A worn compressor, damaged AC belt, or debris in the blower fan can cause rattling, squealing, or clicking noises.

      4. Foul Smells from Vents

      Cause: Mold or mildew buildup in the evaporator core or a dirty cabin air filter can cause unpleasant odors when the AC is running.

      5. Leaking Refrigerant

      Cause: Cracks or damage in the AC hoses, seals, or compressors can cause refrigerant leaks, which reduce cooling efficiency.

      6. AC Cycles On and Off Frequently

      Cause: A faulty pressure switch, low refrigerant, or an issue with the compressor clutch can cause the system to turn on and off irregularly.

      7. Water Leaking Inside the Cabin

      Cause: A clogged AC drain hose can cause condensation to back up and leak into the passenger compartment.

      8. AC Compressor Not Engaging

      Cause: Electrical problems, a faulty relay, or low refrigerant levels can prevent the compressor clutch from engaging.

      9. Higher Cabin Temperature Despite AC Running

      Cause: A failing condenser or radiator fan can reduce the system's ability to cool the air effectively.

      10. Inconsistent Cooling

      Cause: A malfunctioning thermostat or expansion valve can cause uneven cooling, with some areas of the cabin being warmer than others.
