What Causes the Mercedes-Benz E300L Air Conditioning Not to Cool?

[LaSerenity]

Insufficient refrigerant, leaks in the pipeline, or a faulty refrigerant pressure sensor can all cause the Mercedes-Benz air conditioning not to cool when the AC is turned on. Specific reasons are as follows: 1. Damaged air conditioning flap: Damage to the air conditioning flap is relatively rare. It is located in the middle-lower part of the dashboard. If it is damaged, it can only be replaced, although replacement is very troublesome. 2. Dirty condenser: When the condenser is dirty, the air conditioning heat dissipation becomes poor, leading to reduced cooling efficiency, so regular cleaning is necessary. 3. Faulty air conditioning compressor, throttle valve, or expansion valve: The air conditioning compressor is not easily damaged, but malfunctions in the throttle valve or expansion valve can cause poor air conditioning performance. Diagnosing this issue is very complicated and requires a visit to a 4S shop for repair. 4. Aged or loose compressor drive belt: The refrigerant relies on the moving parts of the air conditioning compressor. A loose drive belt can cause the compressor to slip, so when the air conditioning performs poorly, the engine belt should be checked. 5. Insufficient refrigerant. 6. Water in the refrigeration system.
