Recently, I have heard that many people are wondering whether it will affect the car if the air conditioner is not turned off when the engine is turned off. Today, I will explain to you about this problem. It has a great impact on the car if the engine is turned off and the air conditioner is not turned off:

The first and most obvious impact is the damage to the engine. Because if the air conditioner is not turned off when the engine is turned off, the engine will start with the load of the air conditioner the next time the vehicle starts. Such high load will damage the engine.


In addition, using the air conditioner for a long time will make the car condenser pressure too high, which will cause losses to the refrigeration system, because the air conditioner is a heavy burden on the engine, which will affect driving and reduce the efficiency of the air conditioner.


As we all know, automotive air conditioners generally include refrigeration devices, heating devices and ventilation devices. Its function is to adjust and control the temperature, humidity, air cleanliness and air flow in the car compartment in the best state, provide passengers with a comfortable riding environment and reduce travel fatigue. Therefore, the routine care of the air conditioner is also very important. The routine cleaning of the air conditioning system includes replacing the filter element, using the cleaner and removing the cleaning.
