A/C Service for GMC K1500

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. Your steering wheel feels like it's burning your hands. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my GMC K1500 A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We’ve got experience with GMC vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1995 GMC K1500 A/C systems. Bring your GMC K1500 to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

In this A/C performance inspection, we’ll check out the current condition of your 1995 GMC K1500 A/C system to evaluate what repairs are necessary (if any). This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your GMC K1500 A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Recharge the A/C in Your K1500

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1995 GMC K1500, 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. Next, they will evacuate the system according to GMC's recommendations. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1995 GMC K1500 A/C recharges.

Other GMC K1500 A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only GMC K1500 A/C problem you may encounter. Other common A/C problems include 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 can mean there’s a malfunctioning compressor clutch, a leak, or a blown fuse. Are you breathing in some “interesting” new odors in your 1995 GMC K1500? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. Technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care are ready to help you address your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your K1500 — without all the sweat puddles!

1995 GMC K1500 A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my K1500 air conditioning 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.
  • What’s making my K1500 A/C put out warm air? 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.
  • How does my A/C system get a leak? To put it simply, age and moisture are some of the main causes of leaks in your A/C. Over time, rubber gaskets and seals can wear out, which pushes much-needed refrigerant out of your K1500’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my K1500 A/C run on gas?  The air conditioning system in your K1500 does not use gasoline directly as a fuel source, but it does require some power from the engine, which indirectly affects your car's fuel consumption.
  • What does it mean if the A/C in my K1500 smells like vinegar? Moisture can accumulate on your vehicle’s A/C system components, creating the perfect breeding ground for bacteria. As this bacteria grows, it can cause the air conditioning system in your K1500 to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why won’t my K1500’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your K1500 is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
