Use a weak alkaline aqueous solution combined with a soft brush for cleaning. Below are relevant introductions about car air conditioner maintenance: 1. Regularly Replace the Filter: Pay attention to the cleaning of the air conditioner and regularly replace the air conditioner filter. 2. Maintenance of the Car Air Conditioner Liquid Storage Tank: The liquid storage tank should be replaced in time after two years of normal use. Each time the pipeline is disassembled for repair or cleaning, a new liquid storage tank needs to be replaced. 3. Regularly Check the Refrigerant and Refrigeration Oil: Because the refrigerant currently used in cars has strong permeability, even a well-functioning refrigeration system may experience insufficient refrigerant due to long-term use, leading to poor refrigeration performance.
I cleaned the air conditioning evaporator of my new Bora myself. I needed to prepare an air conditioning cleaning kit and a screwdriver. First, I removed the glove compartment on the passenger side, took out the old air filter, and then I could see the evaporator. I inserted the cleaning agent's hose into the air filter opening, about 15 centimeters away from the evaporator, and evenly sprayed half a bottle of the cleaning agent. After spraying, I let it sit for ten minutes to allow the foam to dissolve the dirt, then turned on the air conditioning's external circulation at maximum fan speed for twenty minutes. Finally, I installed the new filter. Throughout the process, I made sure not to let any liquid flow into the blower's circuit board. After cleaning, I noticed a significant reduction in odors from the air conditioner, and it cooled much faster. Remember to clean the evaporator every two years, and it's best to do it before using the air conditioner in the summer.
