Replacement Air Conditioning Switches
Air conditioning switches monitor the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant in the A/C system and control different aspects of the heat and A/C in the cabin of the vehicle. Air conditioning switches, like all electronic components, can wear or fail over time and can cause a variety of symptoms depending on which switch is no longer communicating with the system. If any of the switches fail, your A/C system may struggle to cool your vehicle or completely stop working or activating, or the system may even experience damage due to excessive pressure or other factors. Find the right switch for your air conditioning repair at O'Reilly Auto Parts.
A/C Pressure Switches
A/C pressure switches are safety switches which monitor the pressure on either the high- or low-pressure side of the A/C system. The pressure switches are designed to activate the valves to allow refrigerant to move from one side of the system to the other, and to help prevent any pressure issues that could damage the compressor. If a pressure switch is failing, the A/C clutch or other parts of the system may begin turning off and on rapidly, the system may not be able to adequately cool the cabin of the vehicle, or the compressor may not activate at all.
A/C Selector Switches
A/C selector switches allow you to adjust the temperature, blower speed, and cabin settings of the A/C and heater. Some selector switches are single-selector switches, and some are multi-function switches designed for specific makes and models. If a switch wears out or fails, the A/C, blower motor, or blend doors may not operate correctly. When this happens, the failing switch will likely need to be replaced, as most switches cannot be repaired. Diagnosing a failing switch in the heating and A/C system will depend entirely on the symptoms experienced, and a service manual for your specific vehicle may be very helpful in determining the source of the problem.
