Variable displacement compressor diagnosis with Tim and Christian at Hollenshades Auto in Towson, MD

Is the AC in your vehicle not cold enough? Sometimes fixing the issue involves more than adding refrigerant. Many newer vehicles are equipped with a variable displacement compressor. This style of compressor is becoming more common as it increases fuel economy of a vehicle by more precisely regulating the duty-cycle of the compressor. The variable displacement AC compressor is effectively ALWAYS ON. Thus, it is not recommended to operate vehicles equipped with this style of compressor when no or low refrigerant is suspected. In Towson at Hollenshades Auto Service, Tim and Christian show how proper electrical signal/command to a variable displacement compressor is verified using a volt meter and test leads. Please note that if proper voltage is not observed at the compressor, additional diagnostic testing is required. If you are in the Baltimore area and feel the AC in your vehicle is not performing adequately, please give the team at Hollenshades a call to schedule an appointment for service.
