Hi Guys

I've just been to ATS for an air con re-gas, which didn't change anything

When I turn on the air con, the switch lights up, the fan blows harder but the air doesn't cool down at all. The guy at ATS tells me it could be a relay or a sensor

Any suggestions?

Many thanks in advance

Is the clutch engaging? Have you checked for error codes?

Hi, thanks for your response, how do I do this? I'm a total novice

That's pretty poor, do you say that ATS recharged the gas and didn't actually test the system?

I notice there's an electric plug dangling loose, I wonder if I accidentally knocked it loose when I changed the oil filter last week. If so, does anyone know where it connects, I've had a good look and feel around, I can't find anywhere it would click into

Looks like the other end of the plug is still plugged in!?
The wire is only short so there can only be a few places it will reach...

I know but I'm dammed if I can find it

Could be to a pressure switch for the AC, but looking at the diagram this is near the bulkhead

If you want to do your own maintenance and repairs, you need a decent code reader at the very least.

Does the radiator fan start turning when the air con is switched on?
