Beat the Texas Heat with a Certified Climate Control Check

In Abilene, your vehicle’s air conditioning is not a luxury. It is a survival tool. Whether you are commuting down the Loop in July or heading out to the ranch, you need an A/C system that can keep up with triple-digit temperatures. At Arrow Ford, we specialize in diagnosing and repairing the complex climate control systems found in modern Ford vehicles, from the dual-zone systems in the Ford Explorer to the heavy-duty cooling needs of the F-Series Super Duty.

Signs Your A/C System Needs Attention

Your car usually gives you warning signs before the A/C fails completely. Ignoring these small hints can lead to expensive repairs later, like a full compressor replacement.

	Common Symptoms Blowing Warm Air: The most obvious sign. It often indicates low refrigerant levels or a compressor failing to engage. Weak Airflow: If you hear the fan blowing but feel little air, you might have a clogged cabin filter or failing blower motor (common on older F-150s). Strange Noises: Rattling or grinding sounds often point to a worn-out compressor clutch.

Smells & Leaks Unpleasant Odors: A musty smell ("dirty sock syndrome") usually means mold in the evaporator. A sweet smell likely indicates a heater core coolant leak.

Our Comprehensive A/C Service Process

We do not just "top off" the freon. Modern Ford vehicles use precise amounts of refrigerant (including the new eco-friendly R-1234yf). Overcharging by even a small amount can drastically reduce performance.

	Step-by-Step Diagnostics 1. System Performance Test We measure vent temperature and pressure levels to pinpoint inefficiency. 2. Leak Detection We use UV dye and electronic sniffers to find the smallest leaks in hoses, seals, or the condenser. 3. Component Inspection We inspect the compressor, condenser, evaporator, and electrical controls. 4. Evacuation & Recharge We remove old refrigerant and moisture before recharging the system to factory specs.
