Compressor failure status

In the case of leaks, refrigerant can escape the system through various points such as the shaft seal, hoses, O-rings, and gaskets. These leaks can be difficult to identify and may require the use of UV dye or electronic leak detectors. When refrigerant leaks, it not only affects the compressor but can also damage other components in the system. The refrigerant carries an oil mist that helps keep everything lubricated, so insufficient refrigerant can disrupt the air conditioning cycle and cause damage.

Odd noises coming from the compressor can be a result of internal parts failing or seizing. This can lead to unpleasant sounds, especially from the compressor clutch or belt pulley.

If the air conditioner is not producing cool air, it's likely due to a lack of refrigerant or a failing component in the system. Insufficient refrigerant prevents the compressor from circulating enough refrigerant to maintain proper cooling.

If the check engine light on the dashboard is illuminated, it indicates a more serious issue. The ECU (Engine Control Unit) monitors voltage signals to various parts, including the compressor. Malfunctioning signals can result in incorrect voltage delivery, triggering the check engine light.

Please note that these are general explanations and specific diagnoses or repairs should be carried out by a qualified professional.

Compressors :

1) Rotary Vane - Panasonic

Rotary vane compressors consist of a rotor with three or four vanes and a carefully shaped rotor housing. As the compressor shaft rotates, the vanes and housing form chambers.

The R134a is drawn through the suction port into these chambers, which become smaller as the rotor turns. The discharge port is located at the point where the gas is fully compressed.

The vanes are sealed against the rotor housing by centrifugal force and lubricating oil. The oil sump and oil pump are located on the discharge side, so that the high pressure forces oil

through the oil pump and then onto the base of the vanes keeping them sealed against the rotor housing.

During idle an occasional vane noise from the compressor may be heard. This is due to the time taken for lubricating oil to circulate through the A/C system.

2)Scroll type - Sanden

This compressor uses a unique design with two scrolls, one fixed and one is movable, both are inter-leaved.

The movable spiral is able to ORBIT or oscillate without actually fully rotating. The movable scroll is connected

to the input shaft via a concentric bearing.

As the movable spiral oscillates within the fixed spiral, a number of pockets are formed between the spiral. As

these pockets decrease in size the refrigerant is squeezed, the pressure increases and is discharged

through a reed valve at the discharge port in the rear section of the compressor.

3)Variable stroke - Harrison V5

The Delphi (Harrison) V5 compressor is a non-cycling variable displacement compressor.

The compressor varies displacement to control capacity to meet A/C system demand at all operating conditions. The compressor features a variable angle wobble plate in five (V5) cylinder axial piston design.

Displacement is controlled by a bellows actuated control valve located in the rear cylinder head. This control valve senses and responds to the system suction pressure or A/C system demand.

Through regulation of compressor crankcase pressure, the wobble plate angle, and therefore compressor displacement is variable.

In general, the compressor discharge pressure is much greater than the compressor crankcase. Which is greater than or equal to the compressor suction pressure.

At maximum displacement, compressor crankcase pressure is equal to the compressor suction pressure.

At reduced or minimum displacement, the compressor crankcase pressure is greater than the suction pressure.
