[SanAdalynn]

Leaving the air conditioning on when turning off the engine does affect the car, as it increases the load on the motor, damages the engine, and promotes bacterial growth. The components of the air conditioning system include: the compressor, electronic control clutch, condenser evaporator, expansion valve, receiver-drier, piping, condenser fan, vacuum solenoid valve, idle speed controller, and control system. The functions of the air conditioning system are: 1. Regulating the interior temperature and filtering the air entering the cabin; 2. Absorbing moisture from the air; 3. Maintaining clean air and preventing bacterial growth. Air conditioning maintenance methods include: 1. Promptly adding refrigerant; 2. Regularly replacing the filter; 3. Using ozone for sterilization.
