Hi all,
After the first warm day since acquiring my diesel accord, I have discovered the air con is not working.
Searching through the forums I have discovered the diagnostics for the system, and number 10 for the gas pressure sensor reads "ER", which I would guess is part of the issue.
Presumably I need to get this replaced as a starting point, and the other forums suggest this ought to be done by a mechanic as the system will need de/re-gassing before/after changing the part. I just wanted to double check this was the case and ask if there is anything else I can do to test this before forking out any money. Also, is it possible/likely that there are other issues and that this won't be the only thing that needs doing? The system seems to work otherwise, fanning un heated air at low set temperatures and hot air when I crank it up.
Other things to note from the diagnostics:
Sensor 8 - Vehicle Speed - shows as 0 even when the car is moving.
Sensor 2 - Ambient Temperature - this isn't the same as the Outside temperature shown on the trip computer.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
James
