A/C Repair Service for Your Lincoln Mark VII

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 Lincoln Mark VII A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Lincoln vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1985 Lincoln Mark VII A/C systems. Come to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care in your Lincoln Mark VII

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1985 Lincoln Mark VII A/C system to see if repair work is required. This check will include an examination of system pressure, a visual inspection, and a 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” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Lincoln Mark VII 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.

Mark VII A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1985 Lincoln Mark VII, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. To do this, one of our technicians will remove the refrigerant in your A/C system (if there is even any left to remove). Then, they’ll use Lincoln’s specifications to evacuate the system. 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 1985 Lincoln Mark VII A/C recharges.

Common Lincoln Mark VII A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Lincoln Mark VII A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. 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 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 1985 Lincoln Mark VII? 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. Don’t sweat it — we’re here to help you chill out again in your Mark VII.

1985 Lincoln Mark VII A/C System FAQs

  • Can I make my Mark VII air conditioner 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.
  • Why do I get hot air from my Mark VII A/C? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
  • 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 Mark VII's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Mark VII 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 Mark VII.
  • My Mark VII’s A/C smells like vinegar! What can cause that? 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 Mark VII to have a vinegar-like smell.
  • Why won’t my Mark VII’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? Damaged or worn components in your Mark VII’s electrical or air conditioning system can cause the A/C to only work when the car is moving. You may be dealing with low coolant or a faulty cooling fan.
