Hi, am new to the forum and hope you can help me with my mysterious issue on a 2.2 ctdi exec.
My aircon was working fine up until last week, then it suddenly died. The blower works in the cabin but blows warm air. No fans on in engine bay, compressor not kicking in.
Since then I have:
Drained all the gas and refilled.
Had the system checked for leaks. (none found)
Did the relay trick to test that the compressor clutch works ( it does )
Did the pressure switch loop on the cooling rad (compressor still wont start up)
I have now almost given up and settled on the fact that I will need to drive with windows down for the rest of the heat wave.
My only last 2 guesses would be a wiring problem somewhere between the climatecontrol unit and the compressor. The cabin has been very hot when parked in past 2 weeks, could it have melted a wire / connector? Has anyone got any experience of this or have any suggestion of what to do next? I am lost.
Much appreciated.
