A/C & Electric Repair

It seems like it happens every year… when it gets hot and you need your A/C the most, it often gives you nothing but hot air. What most people don’t know, is that your A/C system is responsible for much more than just cooling your vehicle’s cabin. Below, we will discuss what your car’s A/C and electrical system does and when you need to bring it in for professional repair.

A/C Repair

Apart of your vehicle’s electrical wiring are your A/C and heating systems. These systems are responsible for keeping your ride’s interior cool during the summer and warm during the winter. The A/C system also works as a defroster during the winter.

Heating System

Most car heating systems are comprised of a heater core which functions like a radiator behind the dashboard, a fan and hoses that serve as the pathway for air from the engine to the center. The heat from the engine helps warm the air before being delivered to the fan.

Air Conditioning System

Air conditioning systems function is a similar way with one exception – coolant. Coolant is what makes your air cold and when functioning properly, coolant is delivered to the fan to blow out cold air to the interior of your car.

Like most things in your vehicle, heating and A/C systems deteriorate over time especially in hot southern climates. Along with the common case of running out of coolant, your vehicle’s hoses could be congested or leaky leading to insufficient flow of heating/cooling functions. Below are some signs you are having A/C problems:

N

If your A/C or heat only blow slightly cooler/hotter than the outside temperature

N

Air that blows in smells old, damp or stuffy

N

Your defroster ins't effective or blows dirty air

N

Your A/C or heating system only operates while driving

N

Your vents don't put out much air

At Waldan Auto Services in Austin, TX, we practice thorough A/C heat checks to fully diagnose and repair your A/C/heater problems. We start by checking the interior and blower, the radiator coolant levels, hose pipes, pressure caps and thermostats. We will also check for leaks and cracks in your systems and repair any of the damaged or low levels to their optimum condition so you can keep cool in the summer and warm and the winter.

Alternator Repair

Alternators convert your vehicle’s mechanical energy into electric energy and help you engine start and maintain function while you drive. If you have trouble starting your car or it dies while you are driving, it’s important that you bring it in for repair.

Batteries

Your car battery is responsible to power the ignition system, your starter motor and lights of your vehicle. If you’ve needed a jump-start recently, your battery may be deteriorating and in need of replacement or repair. Bring your vehicle into our shop for a comprehensive battery test so we can set you up with a dependable battery that ensures you can get where you need to go when you need to get there.

Starters

A car starter does just that. The initial firing of your engine to operation is enabled by the starter. If your car/truck can’t seem to ‘turn over’ to ignite, you may have a starter issue and need to come in and let us fix it up.

No matter what A/C or electrical problem you are experiencing, at Waldan Auto Services, we can help. We will put you first and give you the best guidance to get your vehicle back on the road as quickly and for the lowest rate in town.
