βοΈπ§ AIR CONDITIONING NOT COOLING? WE FIND THE PROBLEM!
Another interesting A/C diagnostic job completed at Active Hydraulics & Mechanical! πͺ
This Ford Everest came into our workshop with an air-conditioning system that wasnβt doing its job.
With a temperature reading of 34.4Β°C, something clearly wasnβt right! π₯΅
Rather than simply regassing the system and sending the vehicle on its way, we got to work finding the actual problem.
Using our specialised 95% nitrogen / 5% hydrogen forming gas and electronic hydrogen leak detection equipment, we were able to trace the leak through the vehicleβs interior air vents, pointing towards a leaking evaporator within the dashboard.
π Why is this important?
Some refrigerant leaks are extremely difficult to locate, particularly when theyβre hidden deep inside the dashboard.
Our specialised leak detection equipment allows us to investigate these hard-to-reach areas without immediately pulling the entire dashboard apart.
At AHM, we offer:
β
Automotive A/C diagnostics and repairs
β
Advanced hydrogen leak detection
β
Refrigerant recovery and regassing
β
A/C pressure testing
β
Evaporator, condenser and compressor repairs
β
Air conditioning for light vehicles, 4WDs and heavy machinery
A regas might get your A/C cold again temporarily, but finding and repairing the leak is what matters!
