You as a homeowner SHOULD have the right to work on your A/C, but refrigerant laws today say you need to be certified for using the gases used to charge these units. Unfortunately the answer is no. You would need to purchase the gauges required and have a working knowledge of refrigerant systems to charge your unit to it's requirements. You would also have to purchase the correct gas used for your system whether it's R22 or other. Sorry, but unless you know someone capable, call out a serviceman or you can get expert advice to solve this error. But you don't take any risk.

How can I fix my air conditioner myself?

It is not recommended to fix an air conditioner by yourself, no matter how minor the problem is. If it is clogged, try to clean the shields and interior with compressed air canisters, but there is no guarantee that you will fix it on your own.


Will adding more coolant to my car fix my air conditioning?

Based on the info you've provided (none) my expert answer as a mechanic is NO it will not. Take your car to a certified auto ac repair tech, rather than damage it or yourself. The stuff in the ac system is called refrigerant or freon, not coolant.


Is there a temporary fix if coolant mist is coming out of the AC vents on a 1998 Ford Ranger until you can get it to the shop?

I don't think it is coolant. It is just condensation caused from high humidity and the cold air. If it is coolant it should get on the floor and you should loose coolant.

How do you fix the air conditioner in a 1995 ford econoline van?

We have tried coolant, and the red dye with sealant. No leaks detected, and it worked fine for almost a week. Just wanting to know how to fix it or how much it would cost to fix it?


Your 2001 Toyota celica blows out cold air and overheats even though the coolant bottle is full can anyone tell you what is wrong and how much will it cost to fix?

Exact same thing happened to me. Cold heater air and constant overheating, dispite having a full coolant tank, means that the thermostat has gone. You need to get it replaced. Thermostats are cheap - about £24. It's the labour that can cost an additional £80-£90 as it involves removing the alternator to get to the thermostat. If you feel comforatble under the bonnet, you can do it yourself and save yourself a few quid.
