One possible cause for the air conditioning not functioning is a blockage in the cabin air filter. As we know, the air conditioning uses the recirculation of outside air to cool the vehicle, but if the filter is worn, this creates difficulties.

In these cases, it is necessary to replace the filter. In many vehicles, the filter is located inside the glove compartment on the passenger side.

To replace it, open the glove compartment and remove it. This will allow you to open the filter cover and extract it to replace it with a new one.
