the AC is run by a belt that is connected to the engine. if you turn the engine off, the belt stops moving. No belt movement means no power for the AC. the fan will only blow air, not cold air.
If the clutch on the AC compressor has seized, the engine can in some situations stop running. The compressor could be bad but it is also possible that the clutch only is bad.
It could be that you A/C is running low on fluid.
You will use more gas when your air conditioner is running.
No. Running an air conditioner on fan does not cost as much as running on cool.
Your air conditioner compressor may be seized up. If it is seized up the belt would lock up every time you turn on the air conditioner, causing the car to die.
Yes.... The reason being is that when the air conditioner is running it causes moisture to be removed and deposited in the back of the machine from which it is dripped out . What you do not want to do is power wash the back
yes if someone is in the car to shut it off in case the car starts to vibrate(its bad if it vibrates)
Close the windows, the car will cool quicker and the A/C will shut off, conserving fuel.
You mean the outside unit is running and blowing but the inside unit is not blowing? Shut it off! Who ain't blowing? Elaborate please..
the thermostat is likely sticking
Why is there humidity in the room when air conditioner is cooling? Room feels damp.
sounds like a blend door concern or vacuum concern
