Hey Guys, My a/c doesnt appear to be working, is there any relays or fueses i should look at? the climate control come up with no errors when i did a diagnostic check on it, i dont think the compressor switches on? although when i put the climate on auto the engine does skip a beat or two then returns to normal? its had the coil pack done recently could they have upset anything while replacing that? like taken something off to make room and forgot to put it back on? thanks for ya help, Rick

Set your CC to max cold (16 degs), put your fan to mid speed (around 4 -5) and go see if the compressor clutch is engaged. Oh, and make sure A/C is on the display.

hi, the aircon wont switch on if there is no gas or very lo gas levels,.

there is a high pressure switch in teh aircon lines, which when the a/c sysytem is pressureized with gas, it will allow the a/c compressure to turn on, and sometimes there is a low pressure switch, when there is no or little pressure in the lines it will NOT allow the a/c compressor to turn on.
