How to Deal with the Dust Full Indicator Light on the Air Conditioner?
2 Answers
First, point the remote control at the air conditioner and press the "Digital Display" button for about 6 seconds. Then release it and press the "Digital Display" button once more. Finally, the "Dust Full" indicator will be cleared. The appearance of the "Dust Full" indicator is mainly to remind users to clean the filter. Many people do not pay attention to cleaning the filter and are even unaware of the consequences of not cleaning it for a long time.
Last time when I was on a long-distance drive, the AC filter warning light came on and I felt a bit nervous not knowing what to do. I pulled over to check and found the air filter located behind the glove compartment on the passenger side. I tried removing it myself and saw the filter was completely clogged with sticky dust clumps. Immediately ordered a new activated carbon filter online for just a few dozen bucks, followed video instructions step by step to reinstall it and tightened the screws. The warning light went off right after starting the engine - worked like a charm. The whole DIY process was super easy, saving me a trip to the repair shop. I'd recommend cleaning the filter quarterly to prevent the light from coming on, weak AC airflow, extra fuel consumption, and to maintain fresh cabin air for a more comfortable and worry-free driving experience.
