Why does my AC only work when car is moving?

Another reason why the air conditioner works only when your car is moving may be low freon levels. If your air conditioning system freon levels are below what is needed, it will not cool properly. As a result, it only cools when your car is moving as the car is then capable of pumping the freon with ease.

Why is my a / C fan blowing hot air?

Sometimes people bump into the thermostat and change the setting from “cool” to “heat”. A more common mistake (and the one he made!) is changing the fan from “auto” to “on”, which causes the fan to blow air when the system isn’t running.

Why does the a / C cut out when accelerating?

Somebody told me this happens because the designers thought if you were accelerating, you probably need all of the power of the engine, so the A/C compressor stops running to allow the engine power to be full-bore.
