I couldn’t stand the smell of earthy and replaced the Tange air conditioner filter element myself

12 Recently, when driving with the air conditioner turned on, the car always smells like dirt. I think it will take 40,000 kilometers of maintenance soon, but there is still a few hundred kilometers to go. It’s really unbearable. Try to get enough food and clothing by yourself. When the car turns on the air conditioner, it will suck the external air into the car, and the air contains many different particles, such as dust, pollen, soot, grinding particles, ozone, odor, nitrogen oxides, sulfur dioxide, carbon dioxide, benzene and other aerosols. If there is no air conditioning filter, these aerosols and particles enter the car, which will pollute the automobile air conditioner and reduce the performance of the cooling system. In addition, after inhaling dust and harmful gases, passengers in the car may have allergic reactions, stimulated by ozone, odor in the car, etc., which may cause irritability and affect driving safety. The high-quality air filter can absorb powder tip particles, improve the air quality in the car, make driving more comfortable, and the air-conditioning cooling system is also protected. Tan GE maintenance instructions are 20, 000 kilometers for each change, and you can decide whether to change it or not according to your use.
Located in the hinterland of Bashan at the junction of Shaanxi, Hubei and Chongqing, there is a place known as the hometown of longevity. Above all, the air in the mountains is very pure and fresh.
The car environment is mostly in the northwest, with a lot of sand and floating soil. During the 20,000 km maintenance, I changed the air conditioner and filtered it once, but recently I turned on the air conditioner with a strong smell of dirt.
The first to bear the brunt is to change the air conditioning filter. The air conditioner of the song is filtered in the position of the red box on the back of the glove box. There is a limit carrot on the upper edge of the glove box, and the glove cover can be removed by lifting both sides up at the same time.
The glove box is actually a bucket-shaped storage device. This picture shows the limit card in the upper left corner of the glove box. The function is to limit the position here after the glove box is opened at a certain angle.
This is the limit card and bamboo shoots in the upper right corner of the glove box. When removing the glove box, hold the clips on the left and right sides of the glove box with both hands, evenly and forcefully upward, and do not use brute force.
After the glove box is opened, on the outside on the right side of the glove box, there is a connecting rod connected to the glove box opening damper, which is the device that the lid falls slowly after opening the glove box.
After the glove box is removed from the limit, you can see the cover plate of the air conditioner filter. The filter cover of the air conditioner is fixed by six limit cards, and the three clips at the red arrow are pulled down gently, or you can pry lightly with a flat screwdriver.
The three positioning cards under the air-conditioning filter cover plate are plug-in type, after the upper three are pulled open, lift up slightly, the whole cover plate is removed, at this time you can see the air-conditioning filter element.
The installation position of the air conditioning filter element is relatively narrow, so it is difficult to pull it out with a flat screwdriver, or you can hold a few felt hairs with your hands. The air conditioning filter is drawer type and is not fixed.
This is the cover of the removed air-conditioning filter, the top three are light truck positioning bamboo shoots, and the lower three are plug-and-pull positioning ports. Take it down and take a picture, so you can see it more clearly.
As for the purchase, channel, brand and price of air-conditioning filter, you can go to some treasure, some spell, some XX to choose by yourself. It is said that there is also air conditioning filter with activated carbon coating.
Now it has entered winter, air conditioning is almost no longer in use, the biggest function is to blow water vapor on the glass, so there is no brand, function, at will to find one.
After removing the old air conditioner filter element, it is recommended to ignite the vehicle, adjust the air volume of the air conditioner to the maximum (no need to turn on cooling), and blow the debris falling from the drawer of the air conditioner filter element.
Before taking out the old air conditioner filter element, take a look at the top and bottom of the original installation. Generally speaking, there is a word on this side. The arrows and the words “AIR FLOW” indicate the direction of the incoming wind.
After the air-conditioning filter element is fully pushed in, the air-conditioning filter cover plate is first inserted into the lower three ports, and then the upper three positioning cards are gently pushed in, and there will be a slight “cata” sound.
If the damper connecting rod on the right side of the glove box falls off during the operation, just insert it back into the empty position. When you plug it back in, you will encounter resistance when you just go in. Gently push hard and you will be in place.
When the filter element of the air conditioner filter is installed, hold the left and right positioning cards above the glove box and push the glove box symmetrically back to its original position. Then you can ignite and start the air conditioner for trial operation.
Internal and external circulation, all kinds of air outlet methods can be operated, everything is normal. After the air conditioner filter element was replaced, the air in the car immediately changed, and the fishy smell was completely removed.
To tell you the truth, the air filtration function in the Tange air conditioning system is still very good. Turn on “CLEAN AIR” to drive for a smoke, and the next time you get on the bus, you can hardly smell the smoke.
The filter element of the air conditioner is dirty and black enough. This filter element is almost 20,000 kilometers, and it will soon be 40,000 kilometers for maintenance. I really can’t stand the smell of dirt, so I’ll change it first.
After all, the air-conditioning filter element is not a sophisticated thing, as long as it is operated in accordance with the essentials, most of the old drivers can still be competent. Put on the new air conditioner filter element car air is good, run a mountain road, the head is not dizzy, the leg is not sore, the leg is not painful, can go up to the fifth floor in one breath
