stanlotion: So what could one do in that situation? Ac tech is suggesting I buy a new compressor. Thanks for keeping the tread going. I appreciate your prompt responses. GAZZUZZ: seems ur compressor is frozen stiff or tthe pressure relief valve on the compressor is doing its job due to a blockage To answer your question properly I would need to understand what is actually happening
Is the compressor frozen stiff?
If it is a replacement is unavoidable.
But if the system is blocked you will have to identify the cause of the blockage.
The usual culprits are the condenser/dryer
And expansion valve |

stanlotion: Thanks oga. Please what could cause lack of torque from engine? Could it be that the compressor has failed according to the the Ac tech?? Tried the Ac this morning, it picked for a few seconds and there was a kind of hissing noice from the engine or compressor. Then the Ac knob light started blinking again bringing down the rpm that forced me to switch the Ac off. seems ur compressor is frozen stiff or tthe pressure relief valve on the compressor is doing its job due to a blockage |

austin4real: Hello Mr gazzuzz, in respect to my previous post concerning a nissan primera which I was advised to change the compressor and the reciever drier, the technician finally changed those components, and the AC system became fully functional, however I noticed the ac hose freezes up upon use, I mean the pipes turn to ice block, is it a normal thing? Pipes icing up is not normal.

stanlotion: Morning Op, thanks for this cool thread.
I have a toyota camry. The A/C has been good until recently. Once I put on the A/C through the knob, the A/C button comes on with a green light and starts working, but sooner, the green light starts blinking and the compressor cuts off. I have been advised to run the wire to the Knob or change the A/C button totally. Please advise. Many thanks.
Blinking is an error signal, it could mean low compression from the compressor, lack of torque from engine, faulty pressure switch...... and so on. do not connect any funny wires, take vehicle to a technician that can explain what the blink is. Experienced the same problem yesterday. Ac tech said my compressor has failed. Is he right?? |

TKH: I must admit that I am not too familiar with this site, but if there is an @Gazzuzz who could be of help, I would really like to here from him. Thanks. Read thru and there's something missing, a proper diagnostic report. A scan code relating to the error at hand.
Personally I feel you have a blocked strainer that requires a replacement, for your vehicle, the strainer for the transmission is installed inside and is not easy to reach. You will neeed a transmission specialist, and not just a regular mechanic for this issue to be solved.
Start with a scan let's see the codes that pop. |

please my ac only cools when the accelerator is depressed. but when idle or in traffic, it doesnt really cool. please what can be the problem. possibly low on gas, low compression from the compressor, or a system that is blocked.
In most cases it's just a faulty compressor |

TKH: Dear Nairalanders, I drive a Honda Accord (EOD) 2003 Model auto-transmission. There is this somewhat frustrating and embarrassing issue that I have experienced for a long time. When driving slowly on a rough road, especially when the AC is on, the gear disengages. The gear stick is still on drive but you can feel that the gear has disengaged. Pressing the throttle only revs the engine without moving the car. I have to shift to park, turn of the engine, restart, and shift back to drive, and it continues driving normally. I may not experience the problem for an extended period, and at other times I may experience it a number of times during a particular drive. I seriously need your enlightenment about this issue as most of the mechanics that I have spoken to don’t seem to know what is wrong. Thanks. cc: ochucko!!  |

Specialist900: thank you boss. Getting to bauchi isn't the issue. Rather the route from bauchi to wukari.
The route Google map gives is what I don't trust Tafawa balewa is very large and can be approached from plateau state also, I guess it will be shorter for you. Do not drive to bauchi, from the outskirts of jos there is a straight road that leads to Tbalewa, let me search for the name of the junction. |

I'll be embarking on a road trip soonest to those locations as stated on the subject.
I'm not sure of the best route from bauchi to wukari. This is where the problem is. A friend said getting to wukari would only be through Jalingo which is an 8hrs drive. I'm seriously in need of suggestions. iv don that trip (lagos-bauchi)over 50times in my life
From bauchi capital, drive to the FEDERAL university then continue to the federal poly alll the way to tafawabalewa, it's a straight 1hr trip smooth roads.
Please post pics, when. Do you leave? |

austin4real: Hi. Gazzuzz, I took my niss primera P11-144 to an ac technician recently who diagnozed that my ac compressor is running on low pump, hence the compressor and drier has to be replaced. He told me the compressor that came with the vehicle is automatic and advised I changed to manual type which he said lasts longer and is much colder. Please I wanna ask how true this claim is and is there anything like manual compressor... Most technicians are scared to install a used variable displacement compressor. If the original compressor is available as toks feel free to buy it.
But before you do ensure you have the right diagnosis done. |
