air con re-gased but still not cool

air con re-gased but still not cool~just like a water cooling fans~ just wonder what would be the problem???

[aaronng]

Is the compressor running? Are your cooling fins in the passenger compartment cooling coil clean and free of dirt/dust?

Have you checked if the fan is going and did they do a leak down test when regasing? Compressor might also be stuffed (clutch pack), should be able to turn the compressor and feel compression inside it..

i can feel Compressor turn on and run, but just dun feel cool when it is really hot~ i can feel cool when it is not really hot( e.g~30-32 degree)~

check thermostat.

Did it get regased by a qualified person? You sure they didn't regas it with LPG lol... Take it back and get them to run a leak test on it, aircon could have a leak in it.

is anything blocking the a/c condensor?
I have an a/c issue cos the condensor is blocked by the oil cooler.
THe a/c guy should have looked to make sure it worked during regas

how can you tell is the compressor is running or not?

[dcnl]

when u turn on your aircon with the a/c on, you should hear a click in the enginge bay. thats the compressor turning on.

yes~ and checked no leak~

If all other components are fine, fan and no leaks in gas, i would be looking towards a rooted aircon compressor. It could be the clutch pack on the aircon compressor which you will notice when u take the belt off and spin it to feel the compression, or the components inside has called it quits.. Good luck i would suggest taking it down back to the aircon guy and get him to check it out for you if you are not mechanically minded..

Best to look at the compressor pulley and make sure that the clutch is engaging and the outer section is spinning with the inner section which makes contact with the fan belt.

Should get your Thermostatic Expansion Valves checked out because you might need to replace it.

a mate of mine had a problem and it ended up being some "o-ring" seals that were rooted

do u know how to clean the evaporator without remove it??

[kr4zie]

You need to take it out.
There's no other way.
evaporator is located behind the glove box way to take it out

[outatime]

could also be the Receiver/Dryer needs to be replaced..

[altong0840]

but do i need to remove the gas before i undo the unit?

also my temp control button always jamed in warm position, discovered that the wire hook up on the unit and the button stucked and hard to move, but really not sure where i can get the wire form....
