What are the reasons for the air conditioning not cooling in new energy vehicles?
1 Answers
The reasons for the air conditioning not cooling in new energy vehicles include: lack of refrigerant. Below are the relevant details: Lack of refrigerant: The most common reason for reduced cooling capacity is the natural depletion of refrigerant. The vehicle's air conditioning system consists of numerous metal pipes, and there are tiny gaps between the connections of these pipes. Therefore, strictly speaking, the refrigerant ("Freon") in the air conditioning system does leak, though the leakage is usually minimal. Diagnosis: The refrigerant level in the air conditioning system can be determined by checking the pressure in the high and low-pressure pipes when the air conditioning is in cooling mode. The high and low-pressure inspection pipes are located in the engine compartment and can be checked using a specialized pressure gauge. When the air conditioning system is operating, the pressure in the high-pressure pipe should be around 12.5 bar, and the pressure in the low-pressure pipe should be between 1.5-2.5 bar.
