A/C Repair Service for Your Geo Spectrum

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Geo Spectrum?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We’ve got experience with Geo vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1989 Geo. Bring your Geo Spectrum to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1989 Geo Spectrum A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. This check includes a visual inspection, performance test, and pressure and leak test. If we think there might be a leak, we'll run a special U/V dye through the system or use a "sniffer." A "sniffer" is a machine that's run along parts of your Geo Spectrum A/C system that can identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Recharge the A/C in Your Spectrum

While your 1989 Geo Spectrum’s air conditioner is being serviced, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To start this process, a technician will flush out the old refrigerant from your vehicle’s A/C system. Then, they’ll use Geo’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and once we’ve done a final test on the system ourselves, you’re good to go. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1989 Geo Spectrum A/C recharges.

Common Geo Spectrum A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Geo Spectrum A/C problem you may encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could mean you have a compromised seal, mildew or mold buildup, a loose or damaged hose, or a ventilation fan that needs to be replaced. If your A/C system blows cold air first but then it turns warm, this may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1989 Geo Spectrum? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Our technicians will work to solve your A/C problems to the best of their ability. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Spectrum — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1989 Geo Spectrum A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Spectrum air conditioner colder? Park in the shade whenever you can, and use a reflective sunshade in the windshield when you’re parked. If you’re the only one in the car, close all the vents except the ones that point toward you. Give the system the final boost it needs with an A/C performance check and recharge from Firestone Complete Auto Care.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Spectrum 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? 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 Spectrum's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Spectrum use gasoline? 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 Spectrum.
  • My Spectrum’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Spectrum creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Spectrum’s A/C to work? If your A/C only works when the vehicle is moving, there could be a problem with part of your Spectrum’s A/C or electrical system. Potential issues include low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
