Fans/AC not working, advice please!

[_Kenny_]

Put the AC on yesterday but the light didn't come on. Found that the fans and AC won't work unless it is set to speed 4. Is this a new unit job or could there be another fault? Anyone know the cost I'm looking at?

Thanks for any help

Buy a 172...

Tho checking the fuse(s) maybe a better idea??

ahem 182 in July as you well know sonny!

What was I saying about trying to get through the next 10 months with no added expense lol?!

Time to get the Haynes Manual out methinks

Fan resistor pack ?

Most likely, common on mk1s but more happening on the mk2s

Jobs going well dude, got my own departments and lecturers to take care of so im a busy lad. Definately underpaid for my efforts though like your good self!

Thinking of a 04/54 182 FF come the end of the year on finance. Want to get a deposit together and the beast sale 'should' fund a policy! :approve:

Nice one lad. Defo right that we're underpaid lol. Going to stick this job one more year and see what else is out there
