    Coming back by to say that in 2020 this video saved me from dealerships and auto shops trying to make me pay $1700-2400 for all kinds of things to make my air work! Turns out my fuse was melted.. A $5 part did the job! Thank you!

    Jared, thank you very much for posting this, my A/C on my 2013 Charger has not been working all summer and I couldn't afford to bring it to a mechanic. I tried your fix in the video last night, and it worked like a charm! I pushed on the A/C fuse and the compressor kicked on, so I pulled the fuse and bent those prongs in, and bang, I have A/C! Thanks again, you saved me a lot of money and I appreciate it!

    Didn't know about the issues that this vehicles have with the fuse box, now I do,
    The fuse was good, it was just not doing contact
    Running just as new now

  • @tr3ynag4ta
    @tr3ynag4ta 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great vid! I just refilled mine on refrigerant (R-134a) and all vents (not just one) were blowing cold air. I used it the next day, no problem. It got too cold for me. The next day I wanted to use it again, nothin but plain, DRY air. I was confused, why wasn't it blowing cool this time? I did the refilling correct too, closed the cap and everything. So tomorrow I'll check this for a possible, and PERMANENT resolve of this issue. I get home from a common hot day of work, and it sucks that it is seldom working ONCE, instead of working everytime I use it! I hope I wouldn't have to replace that whole clutch thing. Maybe the fuse method might help!

    • @tr3ynag4ta
      @tr3ynag4ta 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Update: when the radiator fan spins, I get cold air back. It looks like I would have to check the motor, that’s my likely issue. NOT the fuse relay, or leaks. Thanks!

    It started happening randomly , and I’ve had my car for 4 years. Yea I replaced the fuse too bc I always had to play with the fuse whenever I’m on the road I’d pull over move the fuse a bit (NOT taking it out) just move it slightly and it would kick on but like man I was gonna buy a jumper wire to by pass it but I’m gonna do the little trick you’ve done here, bc when it would kick on it would work for a long time, even like for a whole day or two then next thing you know as I’m driving it compressor would go off or even when I just turnt the car on I would have to go under the good n move it slightly.. it’s getting annoying. I also have a 2012 dodge charger pursuit retired police car

    Jared I have a question? I have a 2014 Dodge Charger, and the A/C and heater dont turn on. I already took it in to the mechanic and he cant find the leak anywhere they recharged it last year but it stops working. I dont think mine is that because there was a funky smell coming out from the A/C vent it's like a mold smell. Its frustrating because I want to get it fixed, but my mechanic isn't really finding the root of the problem. I wanted to get your opinion on this.

      I just recently got into cars and I've been doing stuff on mine instead of going to a mechanic and I recently decided to fix my AC so here are some things I found out relating to your problem. If there is air blowing but it isn't cooling then your cooling fan might be bad its ingromt of your radiator that's probably why it starts out cold, then when your engine heats up so does the AC
