What are the reasons for the Sagitar's air conditioning not cooling?

The reasons for the Sagitar's air conditioning not cooling are: 1. Insufficient or too little refrigerant, possibly due to minor leaks; 2. Excessive refrigerant can also cause the air conditioning to not cool; 3. The drive belt of the car's air conditioning compressor is loose. Car cooling relies on refrigerant, and refrigerant transmission depends on the air conditioning compressor. The drive belt is an important moving part that drives the air conditioning compressor; 4. Unqualified refrigerant and excessive impurities in the refrigerant and freezer oil can also cause the car's air conditioning filter to clog, leading to the air conditioning not cooling, increased resistance, and reduced refrigerant flow to the expansion valve, resulting in insufficient cooling capacity; 5. Water ingress into the refrigeration system can cause insufficient cooling or no cooling at all. In terms of power, the 2012 Sagitar 1.6L model is equipped with an EA111 series engine, with a maximum output power increased to 105 horsepower and a peak torque of 155Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. The Sagitar's body dimensions are 4655mm, 1780mm, and 1453mm.
Last time my Sagitar's air conditioning wasn't cooling, and after inspection, it was found that the refrigerant was leaking. Aging pipelines might have cracks, and when the refrigerant level drops, cold air stops coming out. Compressor failure can also affect it, such as when the electromagnetic clutch doesn't engage, causing the system to shut down directly. The fan not spinning or a blown power fuse, leading to poor heat dissipation, is also a common cause. A clogged condenser or a dirty filter can reduce airflow, making it feel less cool. You can first listen for a clicking sound when the compressor starts and check if the fan under the hood is running when the AC is on. Address these issues early to avoid sweating profusely while driving in summer, and remember to regularly maintain and clean the air conditioning system.
I've been driving for over ten years. Common causes of Sagitar's AC failure include insufficient refrigerant or compressor issues. Sometimes it's a minor electrical problem, like a faulty temperature sensor preventing system activation. Pipeline leaks are the most annoying, often hidden and hard to locate. Filter blockages are simple enough to replace yourself - just a few dozen yuan will do the trick. Last year my car had exactly this issue, and it worked perfectly again after cleaning. Professional testing with pressure gauges provides the most accurate measurement of refrigerant levels. During summer road trips, it's crucial to maintain proper AC function - otherwise, the stuffy heat inside can easily cause drowsiness and compromise safety.
