Not sure if your AC unit is having trouble? There are some signs to look or listen for that could indicate a problem or an approaching problem.
Signs of potential problems with your AC system include:
- Have you noticed that your air conditioning in your cab has been blowing cool air rather than cold air?
- Have you noticed a peculiar smell to the air blowing in your cab from your AC unit? You may notice a smell of dampness, mildew, mold, or musty air.
- Does your air conditioner only work when you are driving, but not while your vehicle is stationary or when your truck is idling?
- Does your air conditioning blow hot air instead of cold?
- Does your air conditioner seem to struggle blowing out air? Or do your vents not seem to be blowing anything at all?
- Is the carpeting in your cab wet?
- Does your AC system make an unusual noise when turned on?
- Do you feel vibration kick in when you turn your AC unit on?
If you notice any of these signs, it’s a good idea to have a good mechanic give your system a once over. There’s a very good chance that your AC unit is going to need professional intervention really soon!
Some of the most common AC problems that occur in vehicles include:
