Hi guys, i have problem regarding my AC. At traffic light aka idle, rpm suddenly shoots up and aircond blows warm air.

To fix the problem, i reduced the FAN SPEED .....and my AC blows cool air back.

I already changed cooling coil, valve and filter drier. I did flush my aircond during changing those parts. Just want to confirm whether it's compressor's fault....or other factors like switches/thermostat?

my current mech is a trial and error type guy.....didn't see him diagnosing properly.
I dont want to waste my money. sad.gif

Is your air-con radiator fan ok?

I have experienced the case when the fan is weak, the air-con works fine when driving fast
(because the outside air flow is helping the fan to cool the radiator), but blows hot air at idle.
I think there is a protection circuit that switches off the compressor clutch when it detects
not enough cooling of the refrigerant. This explains the symptoms you described (but not
why reducing fan speed improves the situation).

quite similar like your case. To be precise..... first start at idle, my aircon cools normally. After quite some time driving, i stopped at traffic lights or at somewhere momentarily, my RPM shoots to 2K, and AC blows warm air.

when i lowers the fan speed, my compressor kicks in... aircond cools back. nod.gif

my compressor is this quite small, exactly like this.

that's the condenser not commpressor. the compressor is just above/around the gearbox area.

i'm guessing there could be issue within the cooling coil thermostat, or the compressor magnetic clutch not kicking in when it should... or perhaps it's slipping already at higher rpm

My mistake lol.....i dunno what i type....felt sleepy last night. sweat.gif

I thought if small condenser is the cause, i would add fan in front. If else, i would buy recon compresor. smile.gif

nah its something else, because the ori parts (yes including the small condenser lol) is capable of reaching almost sub zero temperatures measured at the vents

I oredi changed cooling coil, valve and filter drier. So what remaining parts i need to check?

ori denso? cincai change parts could also be the cause as the pressure is not to spec.

not to mention, the complication with air cond stuff is that if the compressor is already experienced heavy wear/issues, it could re-contaminate your system, which means your changed parts would require flushing/cleaning again after you change compressor.
*assuming your compressor is indeed faulty and a change is required

do take note, complete ori denso parts for our iswara will cost about 2.3-2.6k ish not inclusive gst
but the temperatures are just crazy thumbup.gif

My mech just cincai change..... Quite worried. doh.gif
Changing those parts also include flushing the aircond system. My current compressor is sanden. New current cooling coil is patco. Filter drierim not sure.
