Chevrolet Lumina A/C Repair

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. That puddle in the driver’s seat? Sweat. Ugh. “Who can fix my Chevrolet Lumina A/C?” you wonder, as the sun beats through the windshield. Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know Chevrolet vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1999 Chevrolet Lumina A/C systems. Steer your Chevrolet Lumina to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1999 Chevrolet Lumina A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we suspect a leak, we’ll send a U/V dye through your A/C system or use a “sniffer” to find the leak. A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Chevrolet Lumina A/C system that can detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Lumina A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1999 Chevrolet Lumina, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Chevrolet’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1999 Chevrolet Lumina A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Chevrolet Lumina A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Chevrolet Lumina A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could indicate an old ventilation fan, a seal or hose that needs replacing, or mold buildup in your A/C system. An A/C system that starts off blowing cold air but then turns warm can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1999 Chevrolet Lumina? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Lumina’s A/C!

Questions About 1999 Chevrolet Lumina A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Lumina air conditioner colder? For starters, use a sun-blocking shade in the windshield while you’re parked, or look for a shady parking spot. Closing all the passenger vents in your car can help redirect cold air toward you, cooling you off faster. Still need more chill? Head to Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Lumina A/C? If your car’s air conditioning isn’t blowing cold air at all (or it tries, then turns warm), you could have a clogged expansion valve, a faulty compressor clutch, a leak, or a malfunctioning fuse in the system.
  • What causes A/C system leaks? Over the years, the rubber seals and gaskets in your Lumina’s A/C system naturally degrade. Moisture can get into the system and cause a malfunction, or parts can simply wear out so that your system no longer seals properly.
  • Does my Lumina A/C run on gas? While your vehicle’s A/C system doesn’t directly use fuel, it does draw power from the engine, which can impact the fuel consumption of your Lumina.
  • Why does my Lumina have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If a vinegar-like odor comes from your A/C, bacteria growth could be the culprit. Moisture accumulation in the air conditioning system of your Lumina creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • What is causing my Lumina’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Lumina may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
