How To Fix Problematic Porsche Air-Con

Porsche manufactures one of the best vehicle marks in the market. They are known for being very detail oriented and make vehicles with high build quality. Depending on various variables, there are some systems that can go wrong in a Porsche that you can easily diagnose without having to go to the dealership. This is a list of some of the things you can do on your own if your Porsche air conditioning system doesn’t work optimally.

Main Items to Check

Common signs that your cause air conditioning system is not working properly include a reduced flow of air, the climate control system not working as expected or when the vehicle produces and that is of a temperature that you haven’t set.

Below are some of the things you can do to diagnose the problem if you run into any of these issues in your Porsche:

  • Check for broken fuses associated with the air conditioning and climate control system. Consult your vehicle user manual to find out where to locate fuses and how to safely remove them for inspection and then put them back. You simply need to check the fuse filament to see if it’s complete or broken, in which case you need to replace it.
  • Check the general wiring associated with the air conditioning system. You can also find this information in your vehicle’s user manual. The main wires to check include wiring harnesses to the air conditioner compressor, the air conditioning fan, and the condenser.
  • Consider changing the vehicle’s cabin air filter if it has not been changed for a long time. The location of this filter is usually within the dashboard and difficult to reach, so you may need to have this done at a Porsche dealership to avoid damaging the vehicle.
  • Switch on the air conditioning and set it to the highest speed possible, and then pop the hood. If the radiator and condenser fan are not rotating, check their wiring harnesses as well as their fuses.
  • On your vehicle’s infotainment system, run diagnostics on all the vehicle systems to find out if there are any errors. The procedure for doing this depends on the Porsche model you have, its year of manufacture, and its trim level.

If you have done all the above and have not succeeded, it might be necessary to have the vehicle checked by experts. This might involve doing an OBD II scan to check for any electrical diagnostic signs of wear the air conditioning problem might be coming from. This should be done at a diagnostic center that has the correct scanners for Porsche vehicles as well as staff members skilled in their repair and servicing.
