A/C compressors: engineering, failure, and causes

As the heart of a vehicle air conditioning system, the air conditioning compressor is typically driven by a V-ribbed belt. The compressor circulates the refrigerant in the air conditioning system and—when operating properly—ensures that the optimal temperature is maintained in the cabin.

Indications of damage or failure of the A/C compressor:

• Coolant leaking from the compressor
• Insufficient cooling, or absence of cooling
• Noise
• Error messages in the air conditioning control unit or central control unit

Causes of compressor failure:

• Incorrect installation
• Insufficient compressor oil or refrigerant
• Leaks in the HVAC system
• Damage to individual air conditioning components
• Solid matter contamination (swarf, etc.)
• Moisture in the air conditioning circuit (due to corrosion, etc.)
