What Causes Truck Air Conditioning Not to Cool? How to Solve It?
2 Answers
Truck air conditioning not cooling can be caused by: 1. Accumulation of impurities in the condenser; 2. Buildup of dust in the air filter; 3. Damage to pipelines and connecting components; 4. Compressor failure. Solutions for truck air conditioning not cooling include: 1. Check if the refrigerant is insufficient—if so, simply go to a service station to add refrigerant; 2. Check if the compressor is operating or damaged—if the compressor is damaged, it can only be replaced with a new one. Functions of car air conditioning: 1. Achieve cooling effect through the continuous phase change cycle of refrigerant; 2. Remove dust, odors, smoke, and toxic gases from the air inside the car to freshen the air, and humidify the air inside the car to increase the relative humidity.
My truck's air conditioning suddenly stopped cooling in the summer after long-term use, which was unbearable. After inspection, it was found to be a refrigerant leak due to aging pipes with tiny cracks. It could also be due to compressor wear preventing it from working, or the condenser being clogged with dirt. For a temporary fix, I added some refrigerant myself, but for a lasting solution, I'll need to go to a professional shop to replace the pipes or clean the system. Remember to keep the ventilation good while driving, and don't wait until it completely breaks down to fix it, to avoid affecting delivery efficiency due to mid-journey problems. Regular simple maintenance before seasonal changes can significantly extend the air conditioning's lifespan.
