Bad smell coming from air conditioning

blazedgoldfish69 · Jun 7th, 2007, 01:17 AM

Recently there has been a bad smell coming from my air conditioning when it's on. I just started noticing this within the last month or so. Is there any way I can clean it out, like is there a filter or something? How would I do this? I'd really like to be able to use my air conditioning again, especially now that summer is here.

Thanks.

Spray down the A/C intake and if you can reach it, the condenser with lysol. It's just mold growing on the condesner-- happens to ALL cars if the opportunity for the mold exists.

I've got an interior funk problem also.

Where is the condenser located?

The condenser coil is on the outside of the car in front of the radiator. Its the evaporator coil under the dash that gets the funk on it. You can spray Lysol in there from the vents in front of the windshield (outside of the car). Make sure you have the AC running, the fan on high and the circulation switch or button off.

Err, sorry. Bad memory. It was something difficult to reach!
