The AC catch has a light on the catch that enlightens when the forced air system is turned on. Check if this light turns on when you achieve MAX A/C.

Now and then blower engines and additionally their resistors will fall flat and quit pushing both hot and chilly air through the vents.

Stage 3: Check the quality of wind current. In the event that you are feeling air and the blower engine is enabling the fans to deliver air at all rates, you next need to feel the genuine power of the air coming through.

Is it powerless, even at the most astounding settings? On the off chance that you are encountering a powerless power, at that point you will need to check your auto's lodge air channel and ensure there is nothing hindering the aviation route.

Stage 4: Check the temperature of air. Next you will need to check the temperature of the air that the AC is creating.

Utilize a thermometer, for example, a meat thermometer, and stick it inside the air vent close to the driver side window. This will give you a thought of the temperature of the air that the AC is delivering.

Commonly, forced air systems will blow on cool as low as 28 degrees F however on an extremely warm day where temperatures take off into the high 90s, the air may just blow as low as 50-60 degrees F.

  • Tip: Ambient (outside) temperature, and wind stream as a rule, likewise assumes an imperative job noticeable all around conditioner working appropriately. A legitimately working climate control system will drop the temperature in the vehicle by and large 30-40 degrees cooler than the outside temperature. 

These reasons can be cause for a non working climate control system and would require the enrolling of an ensured repairman as your subsequent stage.

Section 2 of 3: Checking outside the auto and in the engine 

Stage 1: Check for any wind current hindrance. You will initially need to check your barbecue and guard, and in addition the region around the condenser, and ensure there is nothing discouraging wind current. As we specified before, flotsam and jetsam blocking wind current can keep an AC from working appropriately.

Stage 2: Check the AC belt. Presently we will go in the engine and check the AC belt. A few vehicles have a belt only for the AC blower. This check is best finished with the motor off and the key out of the start.

It is typical for the blower to cycle on and off, be that as it may on the off chance that it isn't cycling at all or in the event that it is cycling on/off quickly (inside a few seconds) you might be low on refrigerant.

Stage 4: Check the breakers. On the off chance that you don't hear or see the AC blower cycling, check the suitable wires and transfers to guarantee they are working appropriately.

In the event that you find awful wires or transfers, it is vital to supplant them and recheck your AC for execution.

Stage 5: Check the wiring. At last, if the blower still does not cycle on and additionally off and the AC framework has been checked to have the correct measure of refrigerant, at that point the wiring to the AC blower and any weight changes should be checked with an advanced voltage meter to affirm if these parts are getting the power they have to work.

Commonly you will see sleek soil around the joints or territory of the break. On the off chance that a break can't be distinguished outwardly, the hole might be too little to see, or even somewhere inside the dashboard.

Stage 6: Re-charge the framework. When you discover the hole and have it repaired, the framework should be accused of the correct measure of refrigerant and the framework should be rechecked for appropriate capacity.

Confirming a non working climate control system is just the initial phase in a more drawn out process.
