Here are the main parts to your A/C system:
- A/C compressor- one of the main components of your A/C system. It is a mechanical device that increases the pressure of the gas by reducing its volume.
- Actuators- a motor that is responsible for working hand in hand with the temperature sensors to open and close the blend doors. The blend doors give you the ability to change to different modes like fresh air, recirculation, hot air, and cold air.
- Condenser- a vital component that is located between the car’s grille and the radiator.
- A/C Evaporator- cools the hot air inside the vehicle.

Keeping your car running cool 101
The A/C system keep you cool inside your vehicle but what about the vehicle itself?
This is called the Heating and Cooling system of your vehicle. Both the A/C system and the Heating and Cooling system work together to maintain a functional temperature for the vehicle.
Keeping your cars heating and cooling system in optimal condition is crucial for having a long-lasting vehicle.
Here are some components of your vehicles Heating and Cooling System:
- Water Pump- circulates coolant through the engine to maintain the proper operating temperature.
- Thermostat and hoses- the thermostat is a valve that regulates the flow of coolant between the engine and radiator. It keeps the car from overheating. The hoses are what cycle the coolant.
- Heater Core- warms the cars cabin.
- Radiator- disperses coolant through its fins, which releases some of the engine's heat while taking in cool air before continuing to pass the rest of the engine.
- Temperature Sensors- Measures the temperature of the coolant and thermostat to keep the engine running at its best. Usually located near the thermostat.
- Temperature Control Actuators- interconnected with the A/C system to regulate hot and cold air through different vents in the vehicle.
- Coolant- liquid that circulates through the engine to regulate its temperature.
