A/C Service for Mercury Tracer

Few things are worse than a broken car air conditioner on a hot summer day. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You wipe your brow and wonder, "Who can fix the A/C in my Mercury Tracer?" Firestone Complete Auto Care — that’s who! We know Mercury vehicles, and our qualified technicians can diagnose and service the A/C system in your 1994 Mercury. Steer your Mercury Tracer to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care

During this initial A/C performance check, we’ll look at the state of your 1994 Mercury Tracer’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 Mercury Tracer 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.

Tracer A/C Recharge

Let's say we repair your 1994 Mercury Tracer A/C system. We will also perform an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll use Mercury’s specifications to evacuate the system. To finish, we’ll add new refrigerant to recharge the A/C system, and once the technician tests the cool blast for themselves, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1994 Mercury Tracer A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mercury Tracer A/C Problems

Warm air isn't the only Mercury Tracer 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 may suggest a leak, a blown fuse, or a damaged compressor clutch. And smelly A/C in a 1994 Mercury Tracer? You could have a moldy evaporator case, or you may simply need a new cabin air filter installed. 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 Tracer.

1994 Mercury Tracer A/C System FAQs

  • How do I make my Tracer 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 do I get hot air from my Tracer A/C? 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system 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 Tracer’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Tracer use gasoline? Tracer 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.
  • My Tracer’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 Tracer creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why does my vehicle have to be moving for my Tracer’s A/C to work? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Tracer is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
