There are several reasons why a car's cold air conditioning may blow out hot air: 1. Incorrect operation method: To activate the car air conditioning's cooling function, the AC switch must be turned on and the temperature must be adjusted to the cooling position. 2. Dirty air filter: A clogged air filter can prevent cold air from reaching the vents. 3. Refrigerant level: If the air conditioning system is overcharged with refrigerant, it can cause excessive pressure in the pipes, leading to frequent compressor shutdowns and resulting in no cooling; or insufficient refrigerant can also cause the air conditioning to not cool. The following are related reasons why the air conditioning may not cool: 1. Slipping compressor belt or electromagnetic clutch. 2. Poor sealing of the air conditioning compressor piston. 3. Clogged condenser. 4. Condenser cooling fan not working or rotating in reverse. 5. Expansion valve malfunction. 6. Lack of refrigerant (commonly known as Freon). 7. Dirty evaporator. 8. Malfunction in the car air conditioning air distribution system. 9. Dirty air filter. 10. Blower fan malfunction.

Why has the car lock sound become quieter?

You can check the central console settings for feedback on the lock to see if the setting is turned on or muted. Another possible reason is that "one of the doors is not fully closed." Below is some relevant information: Automatic door locking while driving: Automatic door locking while driving, also known as speed-sensing automatic locking, is an electronic device that automatically presses the lock button on the door when the vehicle reaches a preset speed to prevent accidental opening of the door. When the vehicle reaches a set speed, the door locks automatically engage, with the set speed typically determined by the manufacturer, usually between 10-20 km/h. Function: When the vehicle reaches the preset speed, the lock button automatically engages to prevent accidental door opening. This is the most common method of automatic door locking while driving used in many car models (such as Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Hyundai, etc.). There are other methods of automatic door locking while driving. For example, when the transmission is shifted into D (Drive) gear, the lock button automatically engages to prevent accidental door opening. Some models from Chevrolet and Buick use this method of automatic locking.
