Why is my truck AC not blowing cold air? There are several reasons why, but the most possible cause of this includes a faulty AC pressure switch, a bad compressor, and a damaged AC condenser. This condenser is responsible for releasing heat from the refrigerant. If it becomes clogged with dirt, debris, or bugs, it can’t effectively cool the refrigerant, resulting in reduced cooling performance. Regularly cleaning the condenser can help maintain its efficiency. Some of these issues can be fixed by adding more refrigerant or replacing the faulty part, while others may require professional service. Why is my AC blowing hot air? If this is happening one of the first things to check is the refrigerant levels. Refrigerant is the fluid that absorbs heat and humidity from the air. AC systems rely on refrigerant to cool the air. If there’s a refrigerant leak, it can result in reduced cooling performance. Over time, refrigerant levels can become depleted, leading to warm air blowing ... read more

Another question we get is Why Does My Truck Have A DEF System? We will look at both questions and give you some answers of why Diesel Trucks have a DEF System and why the Service DEF System message comes up on the dash. We will look at Why Does My Truck Have A DEF System first. The main reason late model Diesel Trucks and Cars have a DEF System is to control the amount of Nitrogen Oxides (NOx) that the vehicle emits. The EPA has mandated that the OEM’s had to control the Emissions that the Diesel Engine emits. The DEF Fluid gets injected into the exhaust stream before the Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) unit. The Def Fluid goes through a mixing tube and enters the SCR unit, and the DEF Fluid reacts with the SCR and reduces the NOx and lowers the emissions coming out of the tailpipe. When the Servi ... read more

Why Does My Check Engine Light Keep Coming On. This is a question we get asked about frequently. The Check Engine Light is supposed to come on when the vehicles emission levels increase 1.5% above EPA emissions standards. The vehicles onboard computer is monitoring the sensors and the oxygen content in the exhaust. The PCM can correct for small problems such as engine wear and fuel quality to a certain extent. If a sensor sends back a reading that is higher than the emission standards the Check Engine Light comes on. When you take your vehicle to a shop to get checked out, they hook a scan tool to your vehicle. This helps to get the codes and a diagnostic starting point. One of the misconceptions that is out there is the scan tool tells you what part to replace and then your Check Engine Light will go off. While this may happen once in a great while the truth is that a lot of parts get replaced that don’t need to be and ends up costing you, the consumer a lot more money than ... read more
