A/C more help required

tomcat59alan · Jul 24, 2014

Well I took my own advice and went to Kwiks*it today and had the A/C tested and regassed. No leaks and full of gas, but the A/C clutch is not engaging so no cold air. On the plus side, as it was not working no charge!! Now to the help required. Tried to open Rave and Adobe is not responding so could some kind person tell me where to start checking the electricery. I did check the feed to the dual pressure switch from the ATC ECU some time ago (which was live) and put the non opp. of the compressor clutch down to pressure below the minimum limit but that should not be the case now. So if anyone has a step by step check list I will be grateful. Thanks

Well Mozz, guess it's another day with my head out of the window, bugger

Guess I will have to uninstall/reinstall Rave and Adobe to see if that works

Remind us of the year and engine. Early could be the HEVAC, late could be the compressor relay in the fuse box or a fuse.

Could be as simple as not switched on. With switch lit it's off, switch not lit it's on.

I'm not that soft (usually). Has the heat gone to your head, get your knotted hanky on

. Been out today, traced the fault back to the dual pressure switch. Checked the wiring and all as it should be. Plugged it back in and it works, must have been a bad contact. Going to get my contact cleaner back from my mates and give it a spraying. Happy days

Thanks for the replies
