Can you please elaborate what isnt working?
Is the blower fan not blowing?
Is the temperature not getting cold?
Is the HVAC control module not powering on?
Is the a/c compressor not cycling on?

If you can answer those questions, I can help you further diagnosing your a/c issue.

SOURCE: air problems

it could be leaking anywhere in the system. it could be the condensor,evap core the dryer at each connection or it could be the expansion valve or the vlave cores in the ports you use to hook the guages to. take your time with the dye and i'm sure you will find that leak.

SOURCE: 2005 Acura tl brake replacement

The Brembos that come on Type S/Manual models wear fast. I've changed them at 20,000 miles. They are expensive also.

Non-Type S/Manual models I have seen go 80,000 miles. The biggest factor on brake wear is how the vehicle is driven.

At 50,000 miles I would have them inspected. Depending on where you go, make sure you get an accurate measurement of both pads (inboard and outboard). 2mm is the service limit and about that time the indicators start making noise, but not always. Most indepent shops are going to sell you brake pads at 4mm. That's another 10,000 miles at least you could have driven on them.

Never replace just the brake pads, resurface or replace the rotors. The uneven surfaces of the rotor will cause your new pads to wear incorrectly and possibly cause brake noise. Most aftermarket pads will cause a squeel.

SOURCE: how to change spark plugs on 2005 acura tl

Hi,

you need a 6 inch extension, short 3/8 ratchet, 5/8 plug socket, 3/8 swivel "u" joint, (sold at sears) 8mm 1/4 drive socket deep well and 1/4 inch ratchet.

find the coil packs (6 total, three in each head.)
remove the two retaining nuts holding each coil pack using 1/4 8mm socket and ratchet.
twist the pack to break the sticking boot below.
pull up (be careful to not rip the boots however it may still happen but rare.)
remove coil packs, the rear is a little more difficult with the intake.
use 6" extension and u joint and ratchet to remove plugs and replace.
reverse order to assemble. Good luck, and hoped this helped.

93 ford tempo air conditioning compressor clicking on then off?

There are 2 switches that control the ac compressor operation . One is to stop the compressor destruction from an over full system or a high head pressure from the condenser fan not working . When the system pressure is exceeded then the ac compressor switches off . The other is a low pressure switch that shuts the ac compressor when there is too little gas . Unless you have checked the system for leaks ( why else would you be adding gas) then if you have just recharged the system it is more than likely that there is too much gas . Best advice is to go to an accredited ac specialist and have the system checked for leaks and the correct gas pressure/ volume

Where do I add the R 314?

Its R134.
There are at least two fittings on the ac system, one high and one low pressure. The recharge kit will only fit one size fitting to keep you from hooking up to the wrong line.
The fittings are on the compressor or the metal lines going to the condenser.

2000 pontiac grand prix ac problem

If the compressor is working, a mechanic would check the low and high gauge pressure.
The freon has to flow thru the system to work, and the cooling fan draws air thru the condenser to get rid of the heat from inside the car.
If the ac clutch is working but the gauges show equal pressure, the compressor may be faulty.

Were is the low pressure switch for the ac

thats located on the condenser (in front of the radiator) .. it will be near or on the large (low pressure) pipe as it enters the condenser .. you can suspect it if there is proper refrigerant pressure in the system yet the compressor clutch will not operate ... R134 refrigerant is a small molicule so its hard to keep it from leaking .. if enough leaks out then the low pressure switch will prevent operaton of the clutch ...

My recharging kit for air conditioner doesn't seem to fit recharge valve on 2004 dodge durango. How can I be sure i am looking at the low prerssure valve?

Newer vehicle come with R134 vs R12. Since the two are not compatible, R134 has larger fittings. AC system has two ports, High and Low. Low is return to AC Compressor and high is output. High port is first following line from compressor to condenser (condenser is at front of vehicle like a second radiator). Keep following line till you find high port (paint cap red). Second port is low (paint cap blue).
