Hi everyone,
I don't usually post in here but my P38 is in the garage for the next few days so I have been lent a petrol 1.8 Freelander as a courtesy car. My specialist who looks after my P38 has only just got this Freelander so hasn't done that much to it yet except for a basic service or whatever.
Anyway, the A/C doesn't work and as I have to drive this for the next few days are there any simple things that I can check out?? I know its got gas in the system as I quickly pressed on the valve on the thick hose and a bit of gas came out so thats ok I guess.
When you press the A/C button there's no click and nothing sounds like its engaging so I dunno, are there any fuses/relays I can check?? I tried checking the connection to the compressor but the exhaust manifold is in the way. Do these get dodgy connectins at the compressor like on the diesel P38's??
I don't usually make a habit of repairing my specialists cars but with the heat we have at the moment Im prepared to do a little bit of repairing to get some cold air out of the thing!
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks
