Why is my AC only working at night?

If there is not enough air flowing through your air conditioning system, your evaporator coil will eventually freeze up and cause your AC unit to freeze up and stop working. The most common cause of this is a dirty air filter. Air flow problems can also be caused by a faulty fan or closed or blocked ducts and vents.

Will car AC work if it is cold outside?
