Odor Correction
The air conditioning system may emit odors under certain conditions. This is usually due to
the growth of mold on the evaporator and in the evaporator case. Water vapor from the air
condenses on the fins of the evaporator as the A/C system is operating and collects in the
evaporator housing. A drain hole at the bottom of the evaporator case is used to allow the
water to drip out of the case and onto the ground. If the hole becomes clogged, it can be
cleared with compressed air.
In order to correct the odor problem, the mold must be neutralized by using chemicals.
Chemicals and cleaning systems have been specifically designed for disinfecting
evaporator cores and housings.
The use of the cleaning system will vary slightly depending on how the A/C system is
designed. Cleaning the evaporator core and housing generally involves spraying a
cleaning solution into the housing and allowing the solution to soak for a period of time.
The solution is then rinsed out with water. On some vehicles, the blower resistor can be
removed from the housing under the hood and the solution can be sprayed in the resistor
hole. On other vehicles, a hole must be drilled on the housing and patched with silicone or
putty when the cleaning operation is completed. Evaporator cleaning systems vary; always
follow the instructions that come with the kit.
