Automotive Air Conditioning

Automotive air conditioning is a system of components designed to cool and dehumidify the air inside a vehicle's cabin. The system works by compressing and expanding refrigerant gas, which absorbs heat from the air and transfers it outside of the vehicle.
The main components of an automotive air conditioning system include an evaporator, compressor, condenser, and refrigerant. The evaporator is located inside the vehicle's cabin and is responsible for cooling and dehumidifying the air. The compressor, located in the engine compartment, pressurizes and pumps the refrigerant gas to the condenser, which is usually located in front of the vehicle's radiator. The condenser then cools and condenses the refrigerant gas back into a liquid, releasing the absorbed heat into the outside air.
As the cooled and dehumidified air passes over the evaporator, it is distributed throughout the vehicle's cabin through the air vents. The air conditioning system can be adjusted to control the temperature, humidity, and fan speed to provide comfortable driving conditions.
Regular maintenance of the air conditioning system is important to ensure optimal performance and extend its lifespan. Over time, the system can develop leaks, causing the refrigerant to leak out and decreasing its cooling effectiveness. Signs of a failing A/C system can include weak or warm airflow, unusual noises or odors, and water or refrigerant leaks.
Professional inspection and repair of A/C systems, including refrigerant recharging and leak detection, should be performed by an experienced technician. Proper functioning of the A/C system can improve overall driver comfort and safety, especially during hot weather or high humidity conditions.

Flooded Vehicles

Driving through high water can be devastating to your vehicle, it can damage electronics, engine, transmission, differential, and interior. Fixing the damage a flood has done to a vehicle can often be costly and very time consuming. Wards Mobile Mechanic recommends not attempting to start your vehicle until it has been assessed by a mechanic. When the electronics get wet it can cause them to short circuit. Water acts like a conductor and can cross your power and ground, it can short out computers (BCM, ECM, PCM), modules, electric motors (window, sunroof, electric seat, etc.), relays, starters, alternators, or your battery. In the event that your interior becomes wet it is not a good idea to let it stay wet very long, it can quickly mildew, rust the floorboards, and evaporating water can penetrate any surviving electronics or interior parts not already affected. Use a shop-vac to remove as much water as possible from the carpet, seats, door panels, center console, glove compart

Brakes

If you are hearing a squeak or squeal it is most likely because your brake pads and/or brake shoes are worn down, as they are designed to do. This is the best time to get your brakes checked as at this time you probably only need new brake pads or shoes. If you are hearing a loud grinding noise when you are braking you have warn your brake pads down to the metal backing of the pads or shoes and have probably started to grind into your brake rotors or drums. In most cases you will now have to replace your pads and rotors or shoes and drums. If you do not get it repaired now you will end up having to replace you calipers and/or wheel cylinders and bleed your brake system because after your metal backing wears down it will spit out the backing and start to stop your vehicle with the calipers pistons. or you will lose all of your brakes do to it pouring out all of your brake fluid from behind you calipers piston which is bad so give US a call or text and get a free quote before it's
