aircon problems

[phat_tricks]

last month pinagawa ko aircon ko. sabi nila tumatagas daw yung freon. so palit ng tubo from condenser to the compressor. check din nila yung evaporator ko wala naman daw tagas. pero this week unti-unti nanaman nawawala yung lamig. si tingin nyo sir ano po kaya yung problema. btw the car is a 93 mitsu lancer

pa check mo ulit kung may Freon pa.. pag wala na posible may bagong "leak" yan pa leak test mo mabuti ang line minsan sa fittings may singaw o kaya small pin hole

salamat po sa reply. kakacheck po nila ulit kahapon. meron pa naman pong freon kaso mahina yung lamig di katulad nung dati check nila yung condenser saka yung evaporator ulit kaso wala naman pong nakita. sa tingin nyo sa po kaya yung problema?

[NightRock]

Baka madumi na yung evaporator. kelan ka huling nag pa linis??..kung di naman na babawasan freon mo.. malamang madumi na yon.. Ok naman takbo ng compressor?

[phat_tricks]

nalinisan din po sya last month. nabawasan po siguro yung freon kasi di sya sing lamig nung dati. tumaktakbo naman po yung compressor ko.

[NightRock]

Kung nag bawas ang Freon.. it means may leak sya?? hihina nga ang lamig nyan pag konti lang Freon!!!

[NightRock]

or pa check mo thermostat...

[phat_tricks]

salamat po ulit sa reply. kung may singaw po bakit wala po kaming nakita? pano po i check kung ok pa yung thermostat?

[NightRock]

Sir hindi porke wala kayo makita ehh walang singaw.. dapat mag base sila sa pressure kung may drops talaga during pressure test..minsan sobrang liit lang ng leak and it will take few days minsan more than a week bago mo ma pansin na nabawasan ang Freon..

Pa test mo yung thermostat if working properly baka di na nag re response..

try mo pa check yung high pressure and low pressure hoses kasama na yung couplings nung 2. you should have brought it to a reliable ac shop kasi kung reliable yung napuntahan mo, baba lahat ng major parts ng a/c system mo, like condenser, evaporator and compressor pati yung low and high pressure hoses and they'll be checking it by submerging sa water to see if bubles are formed.

Paano ba na-check yung condenser mo binababa ba at kinapakapa lang for wet areas.
Yung iba kasi tamad na ac technician kakapain lang kung may basa sa condenser, e malapit yon sa radiator kaya if tuyo agad yung pinagsingawan.

thank you for your input sir. binaba po nila yung condenser and evaporator kinabit nila sa compressor and then nilublob sa tubig for bubbles kaso wala po kaming nakita eh.
di na nila binaba yung compressor ko saka yung mga hose. san po kaya magandang ipacheck yung aircon?

Well, for sure, you have a small leak!

Small leaks are very hard to find.. techniciasns should use a "freon dectector" I call it a "sniffer".

Its a device that senses the freon.... I makes a beeping (beep, beep, beep) noise and when it senses the freon, it makes a straight beep noise (beeeeeeeeep)!

That device is only for R-134a type of coolant though!

They can also use a dye...If you have a leak, it should be visible with a black light! You put it in the AC system and and let the AC run for a few minutes. ..then you turn off the light and look for the leak with a black light!

Check your compressor to see if the clutch kicks in...
