Probably needs the throttle body cleaned. A manual cleaning takes about an hour and is very simple if you have any mechanical knowledge. There is an article at www.trailvoy.com with picures made by one of the members.
I have a 01 Buick and the ac temp that comes out of the vents is around 50 deg - at idle and around 45 deg at highway speed - Is this normal a normal temp? or should the ac temps be colder?
The idle speed control solenoid controls the idle of the engine when the air conditioning is engaged. Since the ac pump draws down the engine idle the solenoid increase the idle when the ac is on.
When the ac is running the idle should be raised to compensate for the extra load. If the idle isn't rising then the car will cut off.
An engine usually has a higher idle speed when the ac is running. If the high speed idle does not operate then the ac will cause the engine to stall.
The A/C idle compensator solenoid is not functioning. This should be located next to the carb.
You will want an idle speed between 750 and 900 rpm with the ac on and in gear (if auto).You will want an idle speed between 750 and 900 rpm with the ac on and in gear (if auto).
I believe that kicks on when the AC is turned on to raise the idle to compensate for the AC compressor load.
AC idle compensator. Many vehicles have a sensor that increases idle speed when you turn on & add more load. Sounds like your idle not being adjusted. Have your mech check it.
Idle compenstorVehicles hve an idle copensator that speeds up the engine when the ac is turned on to ring the rpm back up to the proper idle speed, if yours is too fast then t needs to be adjsted.
Fast idle motor is not working. This is allowing the idle to fall below the threshold of what it should be when the A/C is on.
