2.4. Diagnostics of malfunctions of systems of heating and air conditioning

Hot air does not come to interior of the car

The thermostat is faulty. Replace.

The drive of management of a heater is faulty. Check, make necessary repair.

Passability of a heating hose is broken. Remove the cause of blocking, or replace a hose.

Passability of the heat exchanger of a heater is broken. Clean or replace the heat exchanger.

Make sure that the engine is heated-up up to the normal working temperature. In case of lack of confidence, check serviceability of functioning of the thermostat.
After warming up of the engine both heating hoses have to warm/hot to the touch (see an accompanying illustration). At violation of passability of the heat exchanger one hose will be much colder than the second.

The cooled air does not come to interior of the car

The driving compressor belt of the conditioner of air slips or is torn off. Replace a belt and/or adjust its tension (see the corresponding subsection in the Head Nastroyki and routine maintenance).

Coolant level fell. Check system for leaks (see an accompanying illustration), in case of need add.

The conditioner compressor does not function properly. At the included ignition include air conditioning system and make sure of introduction to gearing of a clutch coupling of the compressor, the distinct click has to sound. Otherwise, before starting removal of the compressor for performance of repair in a specialized workshop, check serviceability of giving of power supply for it.

There is a mixing of warm air from system of heating to cooled. Check serviceability of system of heating. Adjust cables of management. Replace defective components.

The listed above diagnostic procedures are only basic checks. If there are firm suspicions on violation of functioning of the air conditioning system, it is recommended to drive away the car in a specialized workshop for carrying out a complex of professional checks and performance of necessary repair.
It is not necessary to be frightened at detection of traces of water under the car at its parking hot weather. Usually it is only the condensate which is formed in the course of functioning of air conditioning system.
