Title: Air con
Post by: lowtina on 10 November 2007, 16:34:03

Hi all,

another problem with my new addition to the fleet!!

The air con doesn't work!! When the climate control is on and set to 18 degrees, the air comes in cool. The clutch on the compressor doesn't seem to operate so the compressor doesn't spin up. I'm hoping there's a safety switch that stops the compressor running if the system pressure drops. Am I right? Or is it more likely the compressor is dead?? I'm hoping I can just regas and all will be well with the world again. :'( Is there anything else I can check. Like if there is a saftey cutout, where is it??

Cheers.

Yup, an under pressure and over pressure switch. Can't remember where it is on the V6 embarrassingly.  Been doing too many tractors lately  :-[
