A/C Repair Service for Your Dodge Ram 50

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Dodge Ram 50?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with Dodge vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1990 Dodge A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Dodge Ram 50

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1990 Dodge Ram 50’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If any signs point to a possible leak, we’ll send a special U/V dye through the system, or use something called a “sniffer.” A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Dodge Ram 50 A/C system that can detect any refrigerant fumes that might be leaking out from the system. If your A/C system has a leak, we’ll find and repair it.

A/C Recharge for Dodge Ram 50

While your 1990 Dodge Ram 50’s air conditioner is being serviced, 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 perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Dodge guidelines. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant 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 1990 Dodge Ram 50 A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Dodge Ram 50 A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Dodge Ram 50 A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. Typical A/C problems also include 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 may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1990 Dodge Ram 50? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Ram 50.

Frequently Asked Questions for 1990 Dodge Ram 50 A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Ram 50 air conditioning colder? Here are a few quick ideas. Shut the passenger air vents and point the other vents directly toward you. Park your car in the shade and use a window sun blocker. Then visit Firestone Complete Auto Care for an A/C performance check and recharge.
  • What’s making my Ram 50 A/C put out warm air? An A/C blowing hot air has several possible root causes. There could be an issue with your compressor clutch, a blown fuse, a leak, or a clog in the expansion valve.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Ram 50's A/C system.
  • Is my Ram 50 A/C powered by gas? Ram 50 air conditioning systems don’t use gasoline as a direct fuel source. However, they do rely on engine power, which can indirectly affect your vehicle’s gas mileage.
  • What can cause the A/C in my Ram 50 to smell like vinegar? 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 Ram 50 creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Ram 50’s A/C only work when the car is moving? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Ram 50 may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
