need help AC on my car blows hot air
need help AC on my car blows hot air
ok so all of a sudden my AC stops working, my first though was that my refrigerant was out, but apparently its not, haven't changed it ever since i bought it. i bought a refrigerant to refill it, so I connected it but it was in the middle of the RED color witch is obviously bad, but iv checked my compressor clutch it was working, do i need to flush the system? Do i need to clean any filter or do i have leak?
With the engine running & you press the AC button, do you hear the compressor engage which puts a definite load on the engine?
Is the AC light illuminated? If so, & did you feel the load on the engine?
Possible compressor issue or hopefully just a refrigerant issue? Might be time to visit an AC pro

ok there could be lots of things low on ac refrigerant possibly noting in the system or its leaking somewhere so i would take it to the shop let them charge with dye they you can figure it out where is it leaking from
I went through this last summer. Drive for a bit with a/c then hot air. Took it to the shop and they found the charge was a little low. I had them pull and replace the refrigerant with the proper amount. Same problem.
Next I replaced the clutch. It was shot. Then I noticed that when I was removing the cap on the low side schrader valve I got a little hiss. So, there was the cause of the low refrigerant. So, back to the shop for two new schrader valves and another recharge.
