I asked at a garage 2 summers ago, and they were going to put it on some machine to figure it out. It would've cost me $85 bucks! I checked the fuse and replaced it myself at a whopping TWO dollars. I haven't had a problem w/ the a/c since.
if the compressor is Running you are low on freon, if its not then you have a electrical problem
it sounds to me like a compressor problem. check the belt make sure it's the right size and that it is not sliping. on the electrical side of your question the compressor has a clutch on it which is electrical. the clutch has to activate so the compressor could do its work.(i doubt is the clutch)
No fan-electrical Fan/no cold-check refrigerant. Refrigerant ok, check compressor.
If it fit on a 1994, then it will fit on your 1993 with no problem.....
The air conditioning in a Tracer works through the power relay below the air cleaner. The low pressure switch on the accumulator near the firewall and the high pressure switch near the radiator cross member feed signals to a relay in the power relay box under the air cleaner. This relay box then sends information to the A/C compressor clutch. If you can jack up the car, remove the right front wheel and splash shield, you can "back probe" the wires on the A/C clutch and see if they are getting about 13 volts when the engine is running and the A/C is on. If it has the voltage and the compressor is NOT running, the problem is in the compressor. If it doesn't have the 13 volts, the problem is electrical and is wiring, the relay box or one of the switches, including the dash controls. Good luck eliminating these. To be sure, you can run a wire from ground and the battery directly to the compressor clutch to see if it will engage. If it does, the problem is electrical; if it doesn't, the problem is in the compressor.
From a contributor's standpoint, there is nothing in your question that gives any kind of clue to troubleshoot the problem. It would help if you described the problem with some kind of detail.
If you mean the electrical connection then there really isn't a problem. If you mean the hoses then what may happen is the A/C compressor will fill with dirt and such and become unusable.If the electical connection is removed then the compressor may leak freon, as the front seal doesn't get any lubrication.Without lubrication thwe seal drys out and cracks.
There are three main possible causes to explain why a car air conditioner is blowing hot air. These causes are a worn out compressor, refrigerant leak, and an electrical problem.
not a problem, bring it over Saturday and we will do it then.
Electric motors and GFI's do not get along. the initial draw to get the compressor going is usually enough to trip the GFI. Turn the breaker off and switch the GFI for a regular outlet and you will solve your problem.
If the AC pulley is locking up when the ac compressor clutch engages, it's not a clutch problem, it's a compressor problem. But yes, the AC clutch can usually be replaced separately. The problem is, if the clutch is worn out the compressor is probably worn out as well. It usually isn't that much more to replace the whole thing.
your condensor is clogged up, or your condensor fanmotor is not working, or your compressor struckup due mechanical problem inside of your compressor.
