Team Ryan Automotive Expert Technicians Will Diagnose And Repair Your Car's Climate Control System

Climate Control Systems

There is a common misconception that A/C and climate control are the same thing. While they both have the same general job, climate control takes it a step farther than air conditioning.

Climate control allows you to dictate the temperature of your vehicle’s cabin, even down to the half-degree mark. So, instead of simply cooling your car, it cools it intelligently and precisely how you want it to be cooled. That is why you will often see vehicle’s with climate control being more expensive than their A/C counterparts.

The climate control system also works to keep your vehicle warm during the cooler months of the year. Simply, climate control allows for better control of your cabin’s temperature during all seasons.

How The Climate Control System Works

Climate control allows you to control the temperature of your vehicle. There are a few different types of climate control. Here are the three types:

• Dual-zone climate control: This means the left and right side of the vehicle have different temperature controls.

• Three-zone climate control: As the name indicates, this adds another temperature control zone. The front of the car still remains divided in two, but the back of the car now has control capabilities as well.

• Four-zone climate control: This type of climate control can be found in high-end luxury vehicles. It splits the climate control into four areas for the four main seats of the vehicle.

What Causes A Climate Control System Problem

If your climate control system is longer working, there are a number of reasons why that could be. Let’s go over a few of them:

• Faulty Control Module: The module is the unit inside the vehicle’s cabin that allows you to adjust and change temperatures. Mechanical issues for this module are fairly common. Since it is consistently being poked and prodded, a loose knob or damaged screen can happen. Unfortunately, this would typically require an entire component replacement.

There could also be an electronic failure as well. Your climate control system may suddenly stop responding to controls or settings. If the system exhibits random behavior, then it is an electronic issue.

• One or More Failed Sensors: If the control module is working, then the issue may be from a failing sensor. Most climate control systems require two sensors: a sensor located outside of the car and one located in the interior cabin. These sensors work together to determine the strength and temperature of air blowing through the vents. If either of these sensors stop working properly, it can drastically affect the car’s heating and cooling systems.

• Inconsistent cooling

Description Of Climate Control Systems

The passenger compartment climate control system can be a very complex system. Regardless of the age of your vehicle, these systems require routine maintenance for increased seasonal performance and operation. A vehicle’s climate control system is comprised of multiple, smaller systems that work together to maintain a comfortable cabin environment. The climate control system is able to affect and regulate the internal temperature of a vehicle through a cycle of processes. Although the climate control system is primarily used to improve the comfort levels of both drivers and passengers, there are times over the course of the year when maintaining the ideal internal temperature becomes more than a matter of comfort. In severe weather conditions, maintaining the proper internal climate can actually factor into automotive safety. This is why it is important for you to seek climate control repairs at the first sign of trouble.

Benefits Of Climate Control Systems

When your vehicle’s climate control system stops working, malfunctions, simply does not work as well as it used to, it is important to schedule a climate control repair service. Waiting until a problem gets worse will usually only increase the cost of repairs. In addition to regaining the comfortable cabin environment you enjoyed prior to your system’s problems, you can help ensure your safety as a driver. If you pay attention to the warning signs of an impending climate control system service, you may be able to prevent a broken system and subsequent safety concerns. In addition, your owner’s manual should provide recommended regular service intervals for climate control systems. Catching early warning signs and replacing or repairing climate control system components as necessary will help ensure your ability to control air outflow at all times.
