Aac code 912749

AAC 912749 indicates that the air quality sensor has a malfunction and there is an internal electrical fault.

Ac blows ice cold for a trip to store here and there then, on next trip Ac blows warm and moldy smell.
Afterwards it will blow ice cold, when it wants too.

Notice low pressure line gets at 200lbs when Ac is not working, when working ice cold Ac the low side is 40-50 lbs

Replaced 3 Ac compressors, 3 driers, shop has replaced compressors, vacummed and charged, Ac along with my bank card. Just need answers
If anyone have any suggestions or have had this code before. Recommendations and help us grateful.

Hi, my car is having the same issue air not blowing cold air, and this code is pulling up. Did you ever fix the air quality sensor, and if so was that the fix for the a/c blowing warm air? @Benz1978 @SuperChargerE55

I actually found out that this sensor all it does is co trolling open / close when u entering tunnels and such and doesn't control cold / warm air what so ever and left it as it is for now

and I got no issues with cold / varm air at all.

I advise taking taking your car to a real AC shop can be anything from AC compressor issue, or just freon refill.

Test AC compressor at idle, Open the door and toggle the AC on / off button listen if it engage or not.

Fingers crossed

Your most welcome, and pls take it to a real AC shop and not just a plain Stealer they don't have the same knowledge as a real AC SHOP, speaking from experience bleed me dry when had the INSIGNIA VXR with same issue "no cold air" turned out was AC pump that didn't threw any codes.
Sorry forgot to add that the other day 😜
Pls let us know how it goes
