Entered sand dunes...left with hot air conditioning...HELP!!
So I went off roading at Silver Lake sand dunes... We ran the A/C every now and then, it was working great.. I never got air under the wheels but We hit some pretty rough sand whoops. Did I break a line? Crack a major part of the system? I put a shot of green dye in the system and half a can of Arctic Air and that got the compressor cycling... the air coming out of the vents feels wet, not cold and dehimidified like it should. There is NO water puddle anywhere while idling, that is odd...
The front mounted condensor has a wetness on the passrnger side, possibly cracked? Should that EVER be wet externally? The top/low pressure line is cold while the system cycles.
Looking for a diagram of the system and its parts.. Thanks
My AC problem was a bad expansion valve. My pressures were all perfect and a dealer told me expansion valve. I installed the $50 part myself and had a local shop recharge it for $65. Problem solved. Dealer quoted well over $600 if I remember right..
