Air con kaput

[Sarge337]

Evening all,

Having some aircon woes-

Aircon isn't working, but the screen on the dash is.
I've replaced the resistor under the scuttle panel, tried 2 different units with no joy.
Done the test where you short pins 1&5 on the resistor plug, and it all fires up as it should.


What else could this be? I'm in the middle east so having aircon is an absolute necessity, otherwise its just a rolling sweat box


Many thanks

Mark

The fans working?

Is it gassed?

I reckon there's no gas in it. You can unplug the pressure sensor, bridge it whilst the aircon is switched on, and if suddenly the pump starts kicking in and out then that's your problem.

Fans are not working either

Surely if there was no gas in the system, then the fans would still work with the AC off?

I do know the system has a slow leak so there is also probably no gas left in the system - how do I go about bridging the pressure sensor?
