climatronic Help!
« on: 30 September 2005, 09:38 »
Morning guys, my climatronic's not been blowing cold enough so i took it to get re-gassed yesterday but, as things are never simple, it turns out the climatronic has an electrical fault and the compressor isn't getting a live feed. The fuse is fine and the guy got it working by giving the compressor a direct feed from the battery. The rest of the climatronic system is working fine but it's just not turning on the compressor. Any ideas?

Cheers in advance.
Paul.

Surely running a new live feed should not be too difficult ,if you cant do it yourself I'm sure that an auto electritian would sort it out cheaply. :undecided:

Even tho the fuse may look ok, have you actually tried changing it, you never know and this will be your cheapest fix by far :wink:

The problem was actually the engine coolant temperature sensor. According to the AC guy it's quite common, getting it replaced tonight. Cheers anyway.
