AC Compressor Replacement in Rowlett
At Parkway Car Care in Rowlett, we offer a wide range of auto air conditioning maintenance services and repairs, including AC compressor replacement. The heart of any automotive air conditioning system is the AC compressor, which pressurizes the refrigerant and sends it to the evaporator. When the compressor fails, the entire AC system stops working—leaving you without cold air.
The AC compressor contains several moving parts, so it's inevitable that it will eventually wear out. Valves and pistons can break, and if parts fail while in motion, they can spread debris that damages other components of the AC system. In such cases, it's not just the compressor that needs replacing; the receiver dryer and orifice tube may also require replacement, and a complete flush of the system is recommended to eliminate any contaminants.
Other components that could fail include electrical connectors, bearings, or the compressor clutch. If the compressor seal fails, leaks can occur, leading to further damage.
Two common signs of compressor problems include:
- No cold air coming from the vents
- A clicking sound from under the engine
While these are strong indicators, they aren’t always a guarantee that the AC compressor is the problem. It’s essential to bring your vehicle to Parkway Car Care for a thorough AC system inspection.
