Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C Repair

When you get in the car on a hot summer day, the last thing you want is a broken air conditioner. Your steering wheel feels like lava. Your skin sticks to the driver’s seat. You take a deep breath and ask yourself, “Who can fix my Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C?” Easy — Firestone Complete Auto Care! We know Oldsmobile vehicles, and our technicians are qualified to diagnose and repair 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C systems. Bring your Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais to your local Firestone Complete Auto Care

During an A/C performance check, we'll determine the condition of your 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais 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. What’s a “sniffer,” you ask? It’s a specially designed machine that’s used on parts of your Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C system to detect refrigerant fumes escaping from the system. If your system has a leak, we can get it fixed.

Cutlass Calais A/C Recharge

When we perform an A/C repair on your 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais, 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 Oldsmobile’s specifications to evacuate the system. The A/C system is recharged with new refrigerant and after one final test to be sure the system is cooling properly, you're ready to get back on the road. Our technicians know how to keep your A/C in tip-top shape with 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C recharges.

Common Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C Problems

Hot air is a common Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C problem, but it’s not the only issue you might encounter. Another common A/C problem is weak airflow, which could be caused by mold or mildew buildup, a loose hose, an old ventilation fan, or a compromised seal. 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 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais? This can mean you have mold in your evaporator case, or it may indicate that it’s time to change your cabin air filter. Our trained technicians will do what they can to solve your A/C problems. We’re here to help you get back on the road in your Cutlass Calais — without all the sweat puddles!

Questions About 1990 Oldsmobile Cutlass Calais A/C Systems

  • Can I make my Cutlass Calais air conditioner 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 Cutlass Calais 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.
  • What can cause an A/C system 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 Cutlass Calais's A/C system.
  •  Does running the A/C in my Cutlass Calais use gasoline?  The air conditioning system in your Cutlass Calais 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 can cause the A/C in my Cutlass Calais to smell like vinegar? If the air conditioning in your Cutlass Calais 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 Cutlass Calais’s A/C only work when the car is moving? Damaged or worn components in your Cutlass Calais’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.
