Fixed a very common problem with many German cars. The Air Conditioning Evaporator Temp Sensor has bad wires. The Smart Car A/C is great now.

I fixed the temperature sensor jack, top up freon ac gas with colour but it is still losing pressure and we are unable to see where since seals on condensator and compressor are not leaking ....

@stupidrepublicans 3 жыл бұрын

anyone know how to remove the actual sensor? my a/c only works in the lowest temp setting - when i make it one notch warner it just blows warm air

@dbatch5677 10 ай бұрын

Thanks for sharing. My connector broke and fell apart, so I had to expose the two terminals on the sensor and solder the wires on to them to make it work.

Awesome! I’m glad you could get it to work.

@richardedward8046 2 ай бұрын

My AC stops blowing cold when I come to a stop for more than a couple of minutes. I thought maybe it was low on Freon so I went ahead and added a lil bit, however it still does it. It blows cold AF when I'm moving even 20mph but get stopped and it stops working. I hear strange noises like the blend door moving or something and when I take off the same noises. Maybe it's the same issue.

Hello, hoping you can help me... I have a 2015 (451) Smart Fortwo Passion, and I realized that the "air recirculation switch" doesn't work, I mean, it lights up (and it used to work quite nice), but after a minor service at the MB agency, it stoped working, I don't wanna go back there since I had a very bad experience with them (terrible service), do you have any idea what the problem might be? Thank you in advance...

The connector on the air door may have came loose. I’m not sure where that is though.

My Ac quit. 08 for two with 72000 km. put on a compressor from another 08 with 42000 km and it quit too after only 1000km. . I pulled apart 1st pump and found that the rotor that holds the vanes broke , jamming the pump. 2nd pump is likely the same. Anyone have any idea why this would happen twice?

Incorrect, too little, or too much compressor oil. Moisture in the system.

Never put stop leak in anything because it makes your A/C hoses come a part from the inside and gets in your compressor and make it lock up

I have a smart car 2009 and the AC stops working when I come to a stop any suggestions?

@HiRevzMedia 3 жыл бұрын

Sounds like it could just be low on refrigerant, or the condenser is not getting enough air flow when stopped, and then when you start going again, it catches back up. Which is somewhat normal for the latter.
