In Dubai’s hot weather conditions, car travel would be unimaginable without AC. Hence, it is important to have regular car service on your car’s AC to ensure its proper functioning. How will you find out whether there is a malfunction in the AC in your car?

Here are six indicators that suggest a problem with your vehicle’s AC:

1. Air Flow Is Weak: If the air coming from the vents becomes weak, the cabin air filter may have become blocked.  A fault with the blower motor could be the cause of the lack of air flow. The blower motor plays an important role in forcing air through the car vents. Clogging can happen due to leakages, or it can happen through driving in dusty or polluted areas. Other factors that cause clogging are pollen, allergens, leaves, and twigs. When there is humidity, mold can grow.
2. Warm Air: If warm air replaces cold air in the cabin, it could be due to low refrigerant levels or problems with the compressor or condenser. The refrigerant gas is compressed by the compressor, resulting in increased pressure and temperature. The condenser removes heat from the refrigerant that has been absorbed. High-pressure refrigerant vapor is converted into high-pressure liquid.
3. Unusual Noise: If you hear unusual noises when your air conditioner is working, it could be due to a broken belt or a problem with the compressor.  In such circumstances, you can hear rattling, screeching, or grinding sounds.
4. Bad Smell: If the air within the cabin has a foul odor, it could be due to the presence of mold or bacteria in the car’s AC evaporator or air filter, which can cause respiratory problems.
5. Cycling On and Off: If the AC cycles on and off frequently, it may be due to a lack of refrigerant gas. The shortage could result in a decrease in efficiency and exacerbate wear and tear. On the other hand, if the refrigerant gas level is high, it could also cause frequent cycling.  Avoid problems with your car’s AC by recognizing these signs and ensuring that it functions smoothly during Dubai’s intense heat conditions during the summer.
6. Refrigerant Leaks: Refrigerant leaks can be caused by problems with hoses and pipes. This impacts the cooling efficiency and makes the journey distressing.
