Why does the car air conditioner sometimes cool and sometimes not?

Insufficient refrigerant due to low refrigerant levels or compressor issues. Below is an introduction to automotive air conditioning: 1. Introduction to automotive air conditioning: The automotive air conditioning system consists of a compressor, condenser, throttle element, evaporator, fan, and necessary control components, designed to regulate the temperature and humidity inside the vehicle, providing a comfortable environment for the driver. 2. Working principle: When the compressor operates, it draws in low-temperature, low-pressure gaseous refrigerant from the evaporator. After compression, the temperature and pressure of the refrigerant increase, and it is sent to the condenser. Inside the condenser, the high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant transfers heat to the outside air passing through the condenser and liquefies, turning into a liquid. The liquid refrigerant then flows through the throttle device, where its temperature and pressure decrease, and it enters the evaporator. Inside the evaporator, the low-temperature, low-pressure liquid refrigerant absorbs heat from the air inside the vehicle passing through the evaporator and evaporates, turning into a gas. The gas is then drawn back into the compressor to begin the next cycle.
