... in fact, no AC at all!
The AC has not worked since I got the car last December. Wasn't too worried but we've had a few hot days with rain recently and it gets warm in there so it would be good to have it working. Moving the dial to NORM AC or MAX AC doesn't really do anything, although on the MAX AC setting you can hear something moving inside the vents.
Been to the local Halfords this morning for them to do a "check" on the system. They've plugged their test thingy on it - low gas so that was a good start and could explain why nothing was happening.
They plugged the re-gas unit in and the meter went straight to "WARNING" and she wouldn't take anything in.
Suspicion is the clutch is not engaging. Is this an easy check for me?
Is there anything else I could be checking as well - fuses / relays etc?
The fan and heater do work Ok (so ambient cool air and heat are fine).
Thanks in advance.
