How to install air conditioning in Kalina

Each motorist wants to have air conditioning in a car when there is a big heat outside. So, in Lada Kalina. this function is not provided by the factory by the manufacturer. But, folk “Kulibins” came up with how to install air conditioners, and some manufacturers picked up the idea and began to produce universal cooling systems for the salon.

Video on installing air conditioning on Lada Kalina:

This video plot will make it possible to deal with the installation of the air conditioner on the car, give recommendations and tips.

Selection of spare parts

A set of spare parts for installing air conditioner on viburnum

In order to install air conditioning on Lada Kalina will have to buy a little spare parts. So, what do we need in order to feel comfortable on the way:

  • Compressor.
  • Air conditioning radiator.
  • Receiver.
  • Evaporator.
  • Control unit and sensors.
  • Copper or aluminum tubes.
  • Service valves.

All these spare parts can be bought separately or all in one configuration. On Kalina, such a kit will cost the owner an average of 15000-20000. But you need to pay for pleasure.

Preparation for work

Experts, car owners, as well as manufacturers of the very systems of carconditioning do not recommend installing air conditioning on their own. This is primarily due to security, and secondly with the technical side of the issue. That is why, on the instructions, you can find the following postscript: “It is not recommended (forbidden) to install the system not on the automobile service”.

Scheme of installation of the air conditioning system on Kalina

If, nevertheless, the motorist decided to install, then it is necessary to study the instructions in detail and lay out the details in the sequence on the asphalt or land. It will be convinced that the equipment is complete, as well as invent and install mounts on the car.

Air conditioner installation process on Lada Kalina

Now let’s get down to work. Let’s start installing the air conditioner on Lada Kalina:

  • We dismantle the front bumper.
  • The hood is best removed too.
  • On the open surface we will collect the entire system in order to make sure that everything is.
  • We mount the radiator. It is installed in front of the main cooling radiator.

Connecting the air conditioner to viburnum

If everything is connected correctly, then in the Lada Kalina salon it will become cool, and if not, you need to look for a malfunction.

DIY air conditioning installation. part 1

The idiot’s dream of an idiot happened about a month ago I ordered air conditioning and now he came.

How much the pleasant torpedo on Kalina is not pleasing, I didn’t want to do this wildly, so I had to study the sub.nozzle space, figured out that you could not remove it and rushed.

Remove the white patch of the rack and unscrew through the cardan or the corner distinct two self.tapping screws.

Next, unscrew all the screws, the tip of the glove compartment, the light bulb, remove the duct and pull the torpedo on ourselves and take out the plastic bar.

We climb under the hood. Operations are the same as when replacing the salon filter, but with the addition that we unscrew the Air Finds receiver itself.

We climb back into the salon, there the situation is as follows, how much this receiver where the heater engine still lives, they keep two self.tapping screws on the sides, get to the left without problems, but they need to try to the right one.

In principle, the salon can be assembled TC photos with wiring, I have no time because it was no longer up to the fotica.

How much there is a stretch with additional. the support I decided to use it and in the end I did not have to take off the protection and jerk off the engine.

But here the incident came out, the bracket stood up well, without much effort, nooooo The full.time bolts in the support (one long another shorter) both reached the compressor couplings I had to change them and the long.length should be repaid for the desired length.

Here it is, but you just need to buy cars with condoes =)

During the purchase, they were not with the kondei 2008 if I am not mistaken,

Clear/understandable My 12 years, I took it right away with Condeus, we have, albeit the extreme north, but, at 30 with a kondei is more pleasant =)

During the purchase, they were not with the kondei 2008 if I am not mistaken,

That controls the work of the air conditioner? ECU or climate block?

If the condo is not regular, then the climate block with cables, the conde is needed electronic, with motorized motor vehicles instead of cables.Therefore, the kit usually includes separate wiring with sensors and a cooler cooler. Also, the inclusion button is connected to the ECU, which controls the relay of the Conde. This is done for: 1. Corpace adjustments when the conde is turned on and load compensation2. Disconnecting the coupling at the “gam on the floor”, when the ECU believes that it is overtaking and frees the engine power to this.

clear. You can try shorter without an ECU.

In addition to the kit, you still need to buy something? Well done. But the firmware of the controller needs to be changed? I changed the stove. The gas equipment put. I put the steering wheel power power steering, it’s time to put the Kondyuk. But I don’t want to change the car.

This is a feat of course!If the replacement of the radiator of the stove with Kalina is a dedication to Kalinovodov, then the installation of Kandik in Kalina is 80 levels of cooiness of 80!Consider saved another 30,000 r. for installation, in the service for less money, would not have taken up)))

Healthy Bratan! tell me, I want to clean the evaporator! how do I get to him without merging Froin! thanks in advance!

Hi, maybe we are talking about antifreeze Freon is gas

What was flooded in our air conditioner!

Well, the direct road to the station where it is pumped out, if you need to remove the evaporator, you will have to show a system

I understand! I will not take it off, or steam cleaning!

So clean it easier, remove the heater fan and through the salon filter you can wash and the hand will crawl normally, there are also all kinds of conditioners in aerosols that can be washed without disassembly

How to remove air conditioning from viburnum

In case of failure, it must be replaced or replaced completely! Depending on the degree of gap.

One way or another: the air conditioner needs to be removed. In this case, you should know how to properly organize this process.

The following information will help you correctly replace the air conditioner with Lada Kalina.

To work, you will need the following tools: heads (8,10,12), a cross screwdriver, a ward key-17, pliers, a crooked. For convenience, you need to raise the car on the elevator or work in the observation pit.

First of all, we remove the negative pole from the battery.

Therefore, it is necessary to clean the air conditioning system from the refrigerant. Subsequently, it will be possible to remove the mudguard and begin to remove the drive belt of auxiliary systems.

It is advisable to check its integrity, if the surface of the belt is uneven, it is advisable to replace.

Then. carefully de.energize the compressor electromagnetic coupling. Unscrew the bolts of the tubes of high and low pressure. Their holes cannot be left open, so they are closed with plugs.

The main component of the air conditioner is the compressor. Screwed to the engine bracket and requires unscrewing.

When replacing, all disassembled parts are collected in the reverse order. The tightening moment of the mounting bolts should be-25-28 nm. Pipelines flanges are delayed with a moment of 7-9 nm.

The openings of pipelines on the new compressor are always closed with plugs. They cannot be opened until the pipes are connected directly. Also before installation, be sure to lubricate the sealing rings with oil.

The process ends with the correct installation of a drive belt and refueling a refrigerant into the air conditioning system.

This instruction was used: 4846 times.

The air conditioning compressor is a rather complicated and high.tech unit. Some components of the pumping part of the compressor are made by selective assembly. Therefore, supplier companies do not retail the sale of spare parts for compressor pumps. The only maintainable compressor in the garage is the electromagnetic coupling of the drive.

When using the car, the compressor coupling is out of order. a very common fault. Usually first fails the bearing (rice. 12.5) pulley. The cause may be the improper tension of the drive belt, water ingress when moving into a deep puddle, slipping of the clamping plate 11 and, as a result, overheating of the bearing, etc.D. When the bearing fails, the pulley play begins to appear. Когда люфт достигает критического значения, внутренняя поверхность шкива при вращении начинает тереться о поверхность корпуса 10 катушки электромагнита.

Due to friction, the details heat up and the insulation of the winding of 8 coil windings begins to burn. A short circuit arises: electromagnet fails. In more advanced cases, the bearing jams and the inner ring of 5 bearing rotates on the pin of the front cover of the compressor. Subsequently, the compressor must be replaced, and this is a very expensive repair in specialized services.

In order not to expose yourself excessive expenses, when examining the car, pay attention to unusual noises when the air conditioner is working. If you suspect the problem of the pulley bearing, remove the drive belt and handle the pulley manually. The pulley should rotate on the bearing smoothly, quietly, without jamming. There should be no axial or radial backlash. If necessary, replace the bearing without waiting for its complete destruction.

Lada Kalina 2. Removing and installing the air conditioner compressor

You will need: end keys “on 8”, “on 10”, “on 12”, keys “on 13”, “19”, a screwdriver Phillips, a pen, pliers.

For ease of work, put the car on an elevator or panoramic moat.

Disconnect the wire from the negative terminal terminal.

Remove the coolant from the air conditioning system (see. “Removing coolant from the air conditioning system” on page. 284).

Remove the engine sprayer (see. “Removing and installing the mudguards of the engine”. 66).

Remove the auxiliary assembly drive belt (see. “Replacing the belt of the drive of auxiliary units” on page. 69).

The A 16 DMS engine has a belt of auxiliary unit drives 6RK1870.

Check the condition of the drive belt.

Replace the belt if during the inspection you find:

6 and disconnect the harness connector from the compressor magnetic coupling.

Remove the nut A attaching the clamping plate of the hose unit to the compressor.

Disconnect the flanges of low and high pressure pipelines from the compressor.

Immediately after disconnecting, close the holes for the compressor pipes and air conditioner with plugs to prevent moisture and dirt from getting into the air conditioning system.

10 Remove the bolts with which the compressor is attached to the front bracket (the third bolt is above the compressor and is not visible in the photo).

Turn the bolts from the mounting holes and remove the air conditioner compressor.

If necessary, unscrew the three bolts of mounting the cylinder block and remove the rear compressor bracket.

Install the compressor and all the removed parts in the order in reverse removal.

Open the plugs of the technological flange of the new compressor only immediately before connecting the pipeline.

The flange of the pipe block is sealled by two sealing rings such as “rubber-metal”. When the rings are compressed, their metal edge is deformed, so the rings are not suitable for reuse.

When installing new sealing rings of the flange of the pipeline block, be sure to lubricate them with air conditioning compressor oil.

Selection of spare parts

Set of spare parts for installing air conditioner on viburnum

To install the air conditioner on Lada Kalina, you will need to purchase some spare parts. So, what we need to feel comfortable on the road on hot days:

  • Compressor.
  • Air conditioning radiator.
  • Recipient.
  • Evaporator.
  • Control unit and sensors.
  • Copper or aluminum pipes.
  • Service valves.

All these spare parts can be purchased separately or all in one package. On Kalina, such a kit will cost the owner an average of 15-20 thousand. But you need to pay for pleasure.

Preparation for work

Specialists, car owners and manufacturers of most air conditioning systems do not recommend independently installing air conditioning in the car. This is due, firstly, with security, and secondly, with the technical side of the problem. Therefore, the instructions have such a postscript: “It is not recommended (forbidden) to install a system except in a car service”.

Scheme of installation of the air conditioning system for viburnum

If the motorist decides to install, it is necessary to study the instructions in detail and arrange the details in order on the asphalt or land. Make sure the equipment is equipped, as well as design and install mounts on the car.

Air conditioner installation process on Lada Kalina

Now let’s get down to work. We start installing the air conditioner on Lada Kalina:

  • Remove the front bumper.
  • the cap is also better to remove.
  • We will collect the entire system on the open surface to make sure everything is.
  • We mount the radiator. Installed in front of the main cooling radiator.

Installation of the radiator of air conditioning Kalina

Connecting the air conditioning to Kalina

If everything is connected correctly, in the Lada Kalina salon it will turn out beautifully, and if not, you will need to look for a malfunction.

Installation

Frost and such refrigerated units can be installed on Kalina with both 16-valve and 8-valve engine. The price of the equipment itself is 20-30 thousand. A considerable amount is taken for installation on services. Is it possible to install a climatic system yourself? Will have to disassemble almost half the car and spend all day on it.

Basically, those people who purchased the car when there was no configuration with the air conditioner, or who did not have money for the purchase of Lada Kalina with an already installed refrigerator, take this step. This includes those who did not like the standard climatic installation. To install the air conditioner on Kalina, you will need to remove the torpedo, but in some cases it is not necessary to disassemble the panel completely.

First you can remove the glove compartment and bend the plastic plastic plate hiding behind it. Layer-stand is also removed after unscrewing the self-tapping screws with the help of an electric screwdriver. Dismantle the torpedo and the air filter case in the engine compartment. Return to the salon and remove the body of the stove motor. To do this, you will have to tinker with the interfering with the noise insulation. Bend a small section of the soundproofing coating, unscrew what you need with the ratchet, push the heater receiver, and remove the connecting duct.

So that Shumka approaches the air conditioning, it must be carefully trimmed. When you push the torpedo and remove the central console, you will see the very place where the evaporator of the cooling system will fit perfectly. After that, it is necessary to set the temperature sensor under the console. On some kalina it may not be, but you still have to put it. The space between the motor compartment and the evaporator be surely seal with the soundproofing coating.

Particular attention should be paid to the installation of Kalina electrical wiring. It must be performed so that nothing interferes. It is possible that the protection of the crankcase will also have to be temporarily dismantled for this reason. Only after these operations are the lining of the highway and the final assembly are performed.

, Plus, it is necessary to add, of course, this is a little expensive, but if you want to be cool in the heat with the train, then you should not save. Installation is recommended to be done on a car service, but if there is an opportunity and desire, you can try it with your own hands.

A rather complicated procedure, but if there is a familiar mechanic, then in principle you can install it yourself. At least save on work compared to the service, and select the details yourself.

Change the air conditioner in the car is not an easy task. But with careful work, everything turns out great. I did not put it the first time, but saved 1500-2000.

Installation of the air conditioner Lada Kalina

The Lada Kalina car is part of its standard climatic system, providing air cooling in the cabin. Air conditioning can operate if the air temperature is at least 5 ° C outside, the engine is launched and the heater fan is turned on.

The air conditioner compressor drive works directly from the motor, which is the main drawback of the system. Its use inevitably causes the loss of dynamics and increases the consumption of fuel. The air temperature in the cabin is regulated by turning a special handle on the climate control panel.

A special recirculation mode also helps to cool the air. However, its prolonged use reduces the amount of oxygen in the air inside the machine and fogging the glasses. In general, the climate system of Kalina has three components:

In Kalina, equipped with an air conditioning installation, air from behind the side of the car enters first to the evaporator, and then to the heater radiator.

“Submarine stones” using air conditioning

On the Kalina Lada with a station wagon and a 1.4.liter engine, the use of the air conditioner gives rise to many problems. When the car is completely loaded with passengers in urban conditions and air conditioning, which operates at full power, the engine loses in the dynamics so noticeably that when touched the car, it may stall. Fuel consumption in such a situation reaches 15 liters per 100 km. However, air conditioning can be used differently, which will give the engine more freedom.

Firstly, you can turn on the air conditioner not when it has already become hot, but even at normal temperature in the cabin, but with the air begin to warm up outside. Ideal if you left in the morning and you have to spend a few more hours after noon on the road. The comfortable temperature in the car will be maintained throughout the trip, and the engine power will drop slightly.

Automobile air conditioner work scheme

It is not necessary to turn on the air conditioner immediately after parking an open.air car. It is best not to start moving at once, but to stand a little with open doors. Only after that you can close the windows and start the engine. Turn on the air recirculation mode, and after 5 minutes the temperature in the cabin will become comfortable, after which the air conditioner should be transferred to a minimum mode.

The motor 1.4 8 C for Kalina with an air conditioner on can sometimes be sharply gained with a constant position of the throttle or sometimes lose them, while the driver does not let go and does not press the gas pedal. In some cases, for example, if necessary, this feature can be an unpleasant surprise. Therefore, when the air conditioner operates in Kalina, it is better to keep more from other cars.

Summer is not tanned or installation of air conditioning.

Preface.When I bought the car was not up to the buns. The first car, I wanted a new. There was no money for a new one at once. Borrowed. Respectively, my equipment is slightly higher than the standard. There is no air conditioner. I thought I was traveling a couple of three years and I will change the car. But life and economics in the country have made their adjustments. Therefore, in the next few years we will not part.

It was decided to slightly improve comfort in the hot season, t.e. Install the air conditioner.

The flour of the choice.At first I wanted to buy a new set of air conditioner Frost, read it, looked, looked for information.

I stumbled upon such a person, Evgeny Ovsyannikov Evgeny161. He is engaged in the sale and installation of air conditioners in wrote to him, talked. He dissuaded from Frost, motivating by the fact that the quality of the components is low and most importantly, that the system from Frost does not connect to the car of the car and is not controlled by it.I learned the for the sets that he himself sells. There are two options, this is a new factory set 36000 r., and option used 23000 r. In these sets there is a wiring for connection, which Eugene makes himself.I started to think about what to do and what to do. While thinking, the hot season came to an end.

Decision is made.As a result, in December last year, the decision was made unambiguously towards the factory set. After thinking a little more, and unable to strangle the amphibian, he decided to purchase a used kit. He contacted Eugene again, he confirmed that the kit was in stock, I paid for it, the next day he prepared the wiring and sent a set to me by a transport company.A few days later I received the following kit: 1. Compressor, 2. Radiator with a cooling fan, 3. Evaporator, 4. Engine support for installation of a compressor, 5. Support of the generator with a tensioner, 6. High and low pressure tubes, 7. Working and Pins for the ECU, 8. Generator belt.

Additional acquisitions.After receiving the parcel and a thorough inspection, I decided to modify and serve some elements a little.one. Since the set is used, the tension video on the support of the generator was mildly not in the best condition. I acquired the Ina video, replaced, at the same time disassembled, cleaned and lubricated the tension mechanism itself.2. A low.pressure pipe was included in the kit, which, as they say, when the air conditioner is turned on, makes the sounds of a dying giraffe. Therefore, I bought a new.sample pipe with a finiser on it, and the mounting bracket.3. After talking with Eugene on the topic, whether it is possible to ride with a completely empty system for at least some time, he advised to immediately pour 150 ml of oil into the compressor and drive without a freon as much as you like) so he purchased PAG46 250ml oil.four. I bought another pipe for draining condensate.5. I purchased various fasteners, bolts, nuts, washers.

There was a wild desire to start installing faster. But there was deep December in the yard, freshly on the street, and I quickly drove off this desire from myself, leaving the installation until a more suitable time.

110 km Lada Kalina 1.4 acceleration with and without air conditioning

Installation. The first day.So, warm days came, and sitting down in a car that stood in the sun involuntarily visited the thought, because I wanted to do something so useful so that it was not so hot inside. Oh yes, I need to install air conditioning. Well, the next weekend were chosen, but I decided to start on Friday evening. And I started with the most difficult, as all the installations who I read are noted, this is from the installation of the evaporator in the cabin.The glove compartment, the back wall of the glove compartment was removed, the panel itself was unscrewed from the frame in the glove compartment area. Unfastened the lower part of the fan housing and took out the duct in parts (consists of the upper and lower part). As a result, he took off the upper part of the fan is otherwise not to put the evaporator, in any case it is much easier, and it is not difficult to remove the upper part of the fan, although there is one cunning screw to which it is hard to get but quite real. Then he pulled out two plugs, one large for the passage of the tubes, the second small for the drain of condensate. There are all holes in soundproofing mats, he cut nothing in the salon. But on the mat installed on the motor shield, the hole had to be cut. As a result, I installed the evaporator, not quite easy and at once, but pretty fast.

Installation. Second day.The second day began with the removal of a bumper, protective anther and the locker of the right wheel. First of all, I installed the radiator, all the fasteners on the spot did not need to be collective, inserted it into the lower mounts, put it into the upper nuts and screwed it. Then the generator and its bracket were removed. After that, he drove the engine and removed the support. Installed a new generator bracket. I started installing the support, but it does not get up as it should. I am so and that way, something interferes, but what I do not understand.

It turned out that one bolt is immediately attached and the bracket of the generator and the support, and since the bracket is already screwed, the bolt head does not allow to become a support in its place. Well, the bolt twisted, installed the support, screwed the two lower bolts, but the two tops from the old support turned out to be twice shorter than necessary for a new support. I didn’t cook me for this. I began to watch what is on the farm of the right one, I found nothing. And then his gaze fell onto the removed the generator bracket, more precisely on a long bolt, the attaching generator, measured it, but it is one, but it takes two. Well, this is already part of the tradition, starting to repair the car all the time something is missing. I went to the store. The bolts were available, took two at once. Screwed the support, installed the generator, installed the compressor, threw the belt in advance during the installation of the support.After that, the turn of the tubes came. I screwed the tubes on the compressor, then connected the TRV with the salon evaporator, and connected the tubes to the radiator. Through a low.pressure tube poured 150 ml of oil PAG46 into the compressor.Paid the wiring. He began to connect. All the wiring is signed, what and where, and also made with high accuracy, t.e. It is immediately clear what and where to connect, the whole length is verified. Under the hood, he connected everything, brought into the salon through a regular wiring seal.

Installation of air conditioning on viburnum. Silicone nozzles after a year of operation.

Hi all.A week ago I installed Panasonic air conditioning.Unfortunately, there are no installation photos, since there was no time to be distracted and wash your hands every time.The air conditioner set was bought in winter here for 30,000

The main cooling radiator of Luzar LRC01182B (analogue of Panasonic) was also purchased for 5,000 installed one in the country.

The first day, from about two in the afternoon to nine in the evening.Packed antifreeze. He took off the grille of the radiator, the front bumper, the bumper amplifier, the right headlight.

Then he dismantled the air filter housing, removed the vertical jumper on the TV, disconnected all the pipes from the radiator and removed the radiator. The radiator took out through. Then he shot a generator and a bracket with a tension roller. Having stole the engine, removed the engine support.

All the holes in the back were available, nothing had to be drilled. All elastic bands, nuts bolts and washers are included. Installed the engine support from the set of it through the belt. Then he installed the bracket of the generator with a tension roller. Then the air conditioner compressor installed. I had to suffer with the lower left bolt of mounting (this is if you look at the compressor to the first or lower right if the car). The compressor-condenser to the compressor screwed the hose to the compressor. Sealing rings on pipelines before installation, do not forget to lubricate with oil. Installed the generator in place. Put the belt on the pulleys and pulled. Then he installed the capacitor in place (started it from the engine). He screwed and put on a new radiator of cooling, removed from the old, fan and all elastic bands. Installed the radiator in place (started it from the engine). The compressor condenser to the condenser screwed the hose. Connected to the radiator. Filled antifreeze. Put an air filter in place. Started the car and became convinced that nothing leaks anywhere. This is where the first day was over.

Day second, from eleven in the afternoon to eight in the evening.He took off the torpedo. Removed that part of the duct, instead of which the evaporator is put. Between the stove and the heating fan. Remove the rubber plug of holes to remove the tubes from the evaporator from the cabin to the engine compartment. He pulled out the holes from the engine, for the condensate drain hose. From the side of the solon the hole is closed by the insulation, so I had to pick a hole in the insulation. Before installing the evaporator, you need to install the thermostat sensor on the evaporator.

For me, the assignor installation was the most hemorrhoid. With grief in half, spending two hours, the evaporator was installed in its place. Installed a condensation hose. After that he laid and fixed pipelines under the hood, from the compressor to the evaporator and from the capacitor to the evaporator. Included was the bracket for fastening tubes. Everything came as it should. Then I took up wiring. The scheme that was attached was with jambs. On Kalina, a knowledgeable person helped with the right scheme.

Since the wiring had to be redone, he decided to collect a new. I hid all the wires into a corrugated plastic tube.

Day third, from nine in the morning to eight in the evening.The wires from the cabin to the subpoor space decided to pull through the left front wing. Removed the minus terminal from the battery. Remove the left front wheel. Dismantled both halves of the front locker. He took off his left headlight. Remove the air filter housing. He handed it and fixed the wiring with screeds. From the left wing down under the radiator and to the right wing. When I connected everything under the hood, I started collecting everything back: locker, wheel, headlights, bumper and radiator grille. Everything, everything is ready outside. Well, here is the third day I came to an end.

Day fourth, from nine in the morning until three days.Connected the wiring to the ECU. Reluhi secured on the mounting block. Since there is no longer a place for reels on the block, I fixed it in additional places on top of the mounting unit.

Fuses installed on the installation unit in regular places.Installed a torpedo and everything else in place. The thermostat put on a maximum speed and hid in the floor tunnel, under the casing of the gearbox, so that it would be quick access. OK it’s all over Now.The next day. Reigned 400 gr. Freon.The work algorithm is this: when the air conditioner is turned on, the main cooling fan is turned on at the first speed. It does not turn off until you turn off the air conditioner. An additional capacitor fan turns on from time to time for a few seconds.I am satisfied.

Now about silicone pipes.A year ago I ordered and installed a full set of silicone pipes and hoses. Until I changed only the nozzles that go to the stove. It is hemorrhoid, so I’m waiting for when either a stove or nozzle run, then I will change. There were no tracing or digging during the year. After a year of operation on the nozzles, there is no served trace of the clamp. They are like new.

Signs of air conditioning malfunction

Air conditioning and the entire air conditioning system are considered to be serviceable if, when the main device is turned on, a click is heard. Auto mechanics distinguish several signs why the air conditioning does not work on Lada Kalina. Malfunctions can easily be eliminated with your own hands. If the unit is turned on without interruption, while the coupling makes outsidal sounds and warms up, the reason for this breakdown is associated with the bearing. Repair of the air conditioner in this situation provides for the replacement of the part.

If the click is not heard, the following problems are possible:

  • a refrigerant leak, which helps to block the control system (this is the main reason why the compressor does not turn on on Kalina);
  • pressure sensor malfunction;
  • The winding of the coil burned;
  • The compressor does not turn on due to the location of the motor control.

Is it possible to install another unit

Installing the air conditioner on viburnum is a painstaking process and, in some cases, quite complicated. If there is an opportunity and there is no self.confidence, it is worth entrusting it to a professional, but an attentive motorist will cope with everything and himself. The priority task is to study the space under the torpedo, where the system will be located. Next, you will have to disassemble its inner wall, actually cutting out the window from the cabin into the engineering space.

You can forget about manipulations in the salon for a while by moving to the motor compartment. Kalina air conditioner radiator is recorded using 2 screws, which can easily be unscrewed by the corresponding screwdriver. The left element is quite far away, so before unscrewing it, you will also have to remove the soundproofing material.

The next stage is the dismantling of the connecting duct, followed by pruning Shumka. The air conditioner will crash here. Having slightly pushing the torpedo in the cabin, it is necessary to install the evaporator of the system. There is no standard outdoor temperature sensor in the car, so auto mechanics strongly recommend that you immediately install it and it.

Now you have to do wiring, through which the cooling system will be frightened. It is very difficult to figure it out here, so the best option is to simply invite a mechanic to help. In this case, situations in which the air conditioning does not work will probably be able to avoid. But if you have the necessary skills and experience, you can understand the wiring yourself by carefully studying its scheme in the operating instructions for the car.

Immediately after installing the system, all components are collected in the reverse order, and the air conditioner is checked for performance.

Everything is fine? So, you can go on the road.

So that in the cabin of the Lada Kalina car, including 8 cells, there are comfortable climatic conditions, part of which is the air conditioner radiator. The article is devoted to the air conditioning system: the principle of work, the main breakdown and their elimination are considered, as well as instructions for refueling the air conditioner with your own hands.

It is not necessary to turn on the air conditioner immediately after parking an open.air car. It is best not to start moving at once, but to stand a little with open doors. Only after that you can close the windows and start the engine. Turn on the air recirculation mode, and after 5 minutes the temperature in the cabin will become comfortable, after which the air conditioner should be transferred to a minimum mode.

The motor 1.4 8 C for Kalina with an air conditioner on can sometimes be sharply gained with a constant position of the throttle or sometimes lose them, while the driver does not let go and does not press the gas pedal. In some cases, for example, if necessary, this feature can be an unpleasant surprise. Therefore, when the air conditioner operates in Kalina, it is better to keep more from other cars.

Air conditioner Frost

The Frost set is installed on VAZ brand cars, such as Granta and Kalina. This air conditioner is equipped with a three.position compressor regulator, which allows you to better configure the microclimate in the car. Frost air conditioner is unpretentious in maintenance: the main thing is to refuel Freon in time. This model can also be installed with a special filter of cooled air.

Some car owners complain about reduced system performance compared to some analogues, that is, the normal air temperature is achieved in a longer time than when using the air conditioner of a different system. Most likely, this flaw is associated with insufficient compressor power. But in general, the Frost system does not have a poor influence on the operation of the machine, like a standard air conditioner.

Set for installing air conditioning on the LADA Kalina car

This cooling machine operates on the freon and is brought into working condition by the motor from the motor. In conjunction with a standard stove, the air conditioner forms a climate control system, which also allows reducing air humidity in the cabin, which with high relative humidity protects the car windows from fogging.

The maximum speed, power, gasoline consumption and other characteristics of the car with the installed air conditioner are preserved in accordance with the vehicle. Frost air conditioning, when displaying into its maximum mode of operation, has sufficient potential to reduce the temperature in the cabin by 5-12 ° C relative to the external air temperature, depending on the intensity of solar radiation, air humidity and the number of people located in the cabin.

Common malfunctions

If the cooling system works properly, then during the inclusion of the main device there is a click, otherwise, it is faulty. There are several signs that make it possible to determine the reason why the air conditioner does not work. Sometimes the air conditioning is cleaned. To do this, you need to remove the radiator and clean it and all the nozzles. You can not remove the radiator, but pump the entire system.

Causes and methods of elimination

If extraneous sounds appear in the coupling, and it heats up, the cause in the bearing, which should be replaced. Sometimes a click is heard, but the air in the cabin does not become cool, this means that the air conditioner is idle, the diagnosis of an experimental mechanic is required.

If there is no click after turning on, the following reasons are possible:

  • Freon leak, due to which the air conditioning system is blocked;
  • The winding of the coil burned out;
  • a pressure sensor is faulty;
  • The coupling of the coupling burned out;
  • a breakdown sensor of the evaporator temperature;
  • cliff from the power supply network;
  • broken relay;
  • the engine control is blocked, which does not turn on the compressor.

The reason for the failure of the compressor can be a light and free rotation of the coupling, in which extraneous sounds are heard. The interior of the compressor is not repaired, but the unit is changed new assembly.

The protective mechanism of the air conditioner is so arranged that when overheating it is disconnected. If this happened while driving, you need to wait until the air flows lower the temperature and the unit can turn on again. If a fan is constantly spinning with a valve motor, experts advise disconnecting a freon pressure sensor. At the same time, the fan operates in normal mode, and the cause of its continuous operation on 8 cl is a broken sensor. It is changed with the seal.

Places of the ledagent leak

The course of the refrigerant is a typical reason for the poor operation of the air conditioner. It is important to monitor the state of the pipelines. The air conditioner tube is checked using soapy solution. Apply the solution in suspicious places, if it starts to foam, it means that in this place it is possible to flow. In this case, the air conditioner tube is necessary. During the repair of the air conditioner, it is necessary to change sealing rings in places.

How to season with your own hands?

Before starting refueling, you need to get rid of moisture and air with a vacuum pump.

For Lada Kalina, it is recommended to purchase Freon R-134A. For refueling, they use a special gas station, having two hoses and a ball valve.

The refueling of the climate system by Freon consists of a sequence of actions:

  • The car must be put on a handbrake and turned on the neutral.
  • Before attaching the refueling set to the low pressure hole, it must be cleaned of pollution.
  • When the hose is attached, you need to start the engine.
  • The second hose should be attached to the cylinder with Freon.
  • During refueling, you need to press the gas pedal so that the refrigerant is evenly distributed according to the air conditioning system. Chilled air should go to the salon.
  • When the refueling is over by removing the hose from the low pressure hole, you need to tighten the lid.

On this, the refueling by Freon is completed. Now you need to turn on the carcontration and check how it works.
