A/C Repair Service for Your Isuzu Pickup

There’s nothing worse than cranking your car air conditioner on a hot day — and discovering it’s broken. 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 Isuzu Pickup?" Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Isuzu vehicles, and our trained technicians can identify and repair issues with 1987 Isuzu A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Isuzu Pickup

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1987 Isuzu Pickup’s A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. We’ll test overall system performance, check for any leaks, and measure the system pressure. 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Isuzu Pickup A/C system to identify points where refrigerant fumes could be escaping the system. If there's a leak, we'll find it and fix it.

Pickup A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1987 Isuzu Pickup, 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 Isuzu’s specifications to evacuate the system. Finally, we’ll recharge the A/C system with new refrigerant and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you’re all set. We want you to be comfortable in your car, so we train our technicians to perform 1987 Isuzu Pickup A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Isuzu Pickup A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Isuzu Pickup A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might 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 may be due to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak. What about those (somewhat unpleasant!) smells coming through the A/C vents in your 1987 Isuzu Pickup? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Pickup’s A/C!

1987 Isuzu Pickup A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my Pickup air conditioning 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 is my Pickup A/C blowing hot 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? 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 Pickup's A/C system.
  • Does my Pickup A/C use gas? Pickup 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.
  • Why does my Pickup have a vinegary smell coming from the A/C? If the air conditioning in your Pickup smells like vinegar, it could be due to bacteria growth on system components such as the evaporator and heater cores. Bacteria can grow when moisture accumulates on air conditioning system components, providing a breeding ground for microorganisms.
  • Why does my Pickup’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 Pickup may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
