'04 Explorer with 4.6L and manual a/c - when turned to MAX A/C the compressor locks on, but fan speed doesn't increase and the heater water valve actuator doesn't move; not sure if Inside Air position is on. This started yesterday; worked fine 'til then.

Ford A/C :: When Air Is Turned On Compressor Cycles On And Off

I just picked up a 97 F350 with a 460. When the air is turned on, the compressor cycles on and off. It only stays on for two, maybe three seconds, then is off for about fifteen seconds. I have one of those of those hokey gauges on the refill can, and it says the pressure jumps when the compressor comes on. Could it be going out on a hi head pressure kinda thing? Could the orifice be clogged? I'll have the freon pulled out, then can get into it....

Lexus LX 2008+ :: A/C Not Retaining Temperature And Fan Settings When Vehicle Turned Off

Our 2009 lx just came off warranty. Unless it is immediately re-started, the a/c is not retaining the temperature and fan settings when the vehicle is turned off. When re-started, auto setting for a/c comes on but fan does not. After about 30 seconds, temperature setting reads 75 degrees and fan has to be manually turned on.

Toyota - Avalon :: Clock / Date And Radio Settings Reset When Car Is Turned Off

I have a 2002 Avalon XLS with 160K. I recently had the clock spring replaced by a friend, which fixed what it was supposed to fix - airbag light went off, cruise works, horn works. He did disconnect the battery when he did the work.

Whenever I turn off the car, and turn it back on, the time and date have resent to default, and I lose all the radio settings like stations, bass, treble, etc.

I have to admit I'm not sure if the current problem started RIGHT after the clock spring work, or a bit later. I'm thinking I would have noticed it right away. But I know the time/date and radio settings did work right before.

I've scoured the internet and can't find an actual answer - a lot of "could be". My hope is that the "secondary, memory" power fuse is blown.

Ford - Windstar :: 1995 - When A/C Is Turned On Compressor Clutch Doesn't Engage

I have a 1995 Ford Windstar. When I turn on the air conditioning, the compressor clutch does not engage despite having sufficient refrigerant in the system. Jumping current directly to the compressor clutch will engage the clutch, so it's not the clutch. I suspect the relay for the compressor clutch inside the CCRM may be bad, but am not sure how to test it. I have a Haynes repair manual, but how to test this device?

Ford F-150 - 1997-2003 :: Compressor Still Engaged When Temp Control Switch Turned To Warm

1997 F150... What part of the control system tells the compressor to turn on and off? After not having air conditioning for a year or more I replaced the broken blend door.

When the a/c is turned on and the temp control switch is turned to cold, I get cold air. When I turn the temp control switch to warm, the air coming out of the vents is very warm. However when I do this I noticed that the compressor is still engaged. I think that at this point the compressor should disengage.

Subaru - Legacy :: Compressor Not Coming On When AC Turned On

I've had my Subaru for 8 yrs and never had a problem with the A/C, even in 100+ degrees of Arizona. I always had to turn down the temp. I've been in Maryland for nearly 4 yrs and it's worked fine even on very hot and humid days. In March I noticed that it didn't seem as cold as usual. I also didn't hear the compressor coming on when I turned it on. Mechanic checked it out and said the compressor was working but it probably just needed freon (I hadn't added any since I bought the car). They added a dye in case there was a leak and said I'd be able to tell in 2 weeks if it was leaking, but that the dye is greasy and might actually fix a leak if it's just due to a dry seal somewhere. They didn't charge me for the freon. (These are honest mechanics. I've been with them for several years and they've had numerous chances to bilk me but never have.)

Couple weeks went by and it seemed okay, though maybe not quite as cold as when I picked it up. Sometimes I'd drive and it would be very cold so I'd think it was fine, but a few minutes or some time later I'd know for sure it wasn't right. The weather vacillated between hot and cold too, which made it harder to tell. Finally the past 2 weeks it got really hot and I knew for certain it wasn't putting out cold enough air. Yesterday was in the low 90's and I was sick from the heat while driving. Only felt like a fan blowing. I left it at the mechanic's today. They just called and said the vent temp is normal and there are no leaks. They're going to check for an electrical problem, as I also have a brake light that blows on a regular basis. (Though he said those aren't on the same circuit)

As far as my operating behavior, I don't turn it on and off all the time, and once it's going for a few minutes I put in on recirculate. I'm the only driver.

Golf V R32 :: When AC Turned On Compressor Clutch Not Clicking

I have recently bought a R32 2008, and when trying to turn the AC I don't hear the AC compressor clutch clicking, the fans are running normally (radiator fans ). What should I check ? Someone told me that maybe it's a compressor problem, and another one said that if the refrigerant gas is low the clutch won't be engaged.

Malibu - Chevrolet :: 2000 - Compressor Motor Clutch Is Not Engaging When AC Turned On

I have a 2000 chevy malibu that has not had a/c the past 2 summers. I'm trying to diagnose what the problem could be. When I start the car and then turn on the a/c by pressing the button in the car nothing seems to happen.

When I went to look at the compressor motor I could see that the clutch is not engage and the middle of the compressor is not turning. What to check without taking to a mechanic??

Chevrolet - Lumina :: 1996 - Compressor Clutch Does Not Engage And Fans Do Not Spin When AC Turned On

I am having trouble with my air conditioning system in my 1996 Chevy Lumina. When I turn on the AC, the compressor clutch does not engage and the fans do not spin. I was able to jump the compressor so the clutch engaged, however, the fans still did not spin and the AC was not cold. I then jumped the low pressure cycling switch (near the accumulator), which caused the fans to spin while the compressor was running. However, this still did not produce cold air from the AC and none of the AC lines were cold to the touch. I am starting to think the system is low on Freon, but I do not have gauges to test the pressure.

Prius (2004-09) :: Dew On Windows While Driving - A/C Settings?

I am driving in Florida as the humidity outside gets very very high along with high temperatures and with the air conditioning on at night inside I developed a dew on the outside but the wipers can wipe away. with the high temperatures outside I obviously want the car cooler inside. it seems to be a constant fight but the real problem is the side windows are also developing a dew on the driver side window and passenger-side somewhat.

I can roll the windows up and down put the time I get them rolled back up and go a very very short amount of time they are dew over again from the outside , the windshield it is almost to the point where you have to leave the wipers on I have used the washers and that does not really work much at all either .

Ford F-150 (2004-2008) :: Door Locks Not Working Properly

My 2008 F150 Super Crew Door locks use to work like this, When you pushed the unlock button on the key fob once it unlocked the driver door only then if you pressed it again it unlocked the other 3 doors. A few months ago it started unlocking all 4 doors with one press. The owners manual does not show this as a option and when I had it at the dealer for brakes they tried to get it back the way it was but could not figure it out either.

Lexus SC430 :: 2004 Any Settings For Dim Dash Lights?

We have a 2004 and 2007 SC.

I notice that the dash lights on the 04 are dim compared to the 07 even though the dash control switch is turned all the way up. Is this the nature of the car or is there a setting that can be adjusted through the computer?
