Default Easy way to deal with AC odour?
i have searched online for solutions but some of them require me to fiddle with my car's components. Is there an easy way to deal with this problem? ( does spraying the vents near windshield with Lysol really work??)

The odour is probably being caused by bacteria.

Put your heating on full, turn the AC on, and run like that for a week.

Once all the bacteria are killed, the smell should disappear
