Compressor:

The condenser releases heat from the refrigerant, converting it from a gas to a liquid.

Condenser:

The evaporator absorbs heat from the cabin, causing the refrigerant to evaporate.

Evaporator:

The expansion valve or orifice tube regulates the flow of refrigerant into the evaporator.

Expansion Valve or Orifice Tube:

Refrigerant is the substance circulating through the system, absorbing and releasing heat.

Refrigerant:

Blower Motor:

Ductwork directs the flow of air, and vents distribute conditioned air into the cabin.

Ductwork and Vents:

Air Conditioning and repair

If the refrigerant level is low, it can be recharged. However, identifying and fixing the cause of the leak is crucial to prevent further issues.

Refrigerant Recharge:

Compressor Replacement:

Damaged condensers or evaporators may require replacement to ensure efficient heat exchange.

Condenser or Evaporator Replacement:

A faulty expansion valve or orifice tube can impact the flow of refrigerant and may need to be replaced.

Expansion Valve or Orifice Tube Replacement:

Identifying and fixing refrigerant leaks is essential. This may involve repairing or replacing damaged components like hoses, seals, or the condenser.

Leak Detection and Repair:

If the blower motor fails, it may need to be replaced to restore proper airflow.

Blower Motor Replacement:

Regular replacement of the cabin air filter is essential to maintain air quality and prevent odors.

Cabin Air Filter Replacement:

To address unpleasant odors, cleaning and disinfecting the evaporator and ductwork may be necessary.
