Mitsubishi Mirage A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Is that a hot stove? Nope, just your steering wheel. Sweat soaks the driver's seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Mitsubishi Mirage A/C?” Firestone Complete Auto Care can! We know our way around Mitsubishi vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage A/C systems. Bring your Mitsubishi Mirage to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage A/C system to determine whether repair work is needed. 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. A “sniffer” isn’t a technician with a good nose! It’s a machine that’s used on different parts of your Mitsubishi Mirage 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.

Mirage A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage, we’ll also do an A/C evacuation and recharge. During this process, a technician will remove the old refrigerant from the A/C system. Then, they’ll perform an evacuation (also known as a discharge) on the entire system per Mitsubishi guidelines. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you’re good to go. Our technicians are trained to efficiently perform 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage A/C recharges.

Troubleshooting Mitsubishi Mirage A/C Problems

You may think warm air is the only potential Mitsubishi Mirage A/C problem you’ll have, but you may notice other issues, too. 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. 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 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage? 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. So, chill out. We're here to help you get the blast back in your Mirage’s A/C!

Frequently Asked Questions for 1990 Mitsubishi Mirage A/C Systems

  • How do I make my Mirage air conditioning 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.
  • What’s making my Mirage A/C put out warm air? 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 causes A/C system leaks? 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 Mirage’s A/C system — and lets outside moisture get in, which can take a toll on internal A/C components.
  • Does my Mirage A/C use gas? Your Mirage’s A/C uses some power from the engine to run. So, while your air conditioning system may not directly use gasoline as a fuel source, using the A/C can indirectly affect your vehicle’s fuel efficiency.
  • My Mirage’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 Mirage creates a breeding environment for microorganisms.
  • Why won’t my Mirage’s A/C cool the vehicle when the car is stopped? There could be issues with one or more components in the air conditioning or electrical system. Your Mirage may have a faulty cooling fan or low refrigerant.
