vt series 1 a/c

[shano8]

hey guys n gals, just a quick question. ive got a vt berlina series 1, my a/c is not working, eveything is ok, fan etc, except its not cold. now a guy has looked at it n said that the module(?) has gone. is this easily replaced? im used to working on earlier cars ( pre-injection ), but computerised are a different thing, any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers, shano

Unfortunately I have no idea what the guy means by module. One of the main reasons the aircon stops blowing cold air is lack of refrigerant. Have you had it re-gassed at all? Another reason could be the compressor is not working. Does the compressor cut in when you switch on the A/C? Have you checked the fuse and relay relating to the A/C? There could be other reasons why it's not working but I'll just go with the ones I mentioned for the moment.

i had the same problem (air con seemed to be running 100% apart the main thing, cold air). got it regassed, it just hadnt been used or too long, so yeah, regassed now runs better/colder than my bosses car.

$100 for leak check and regas is worth it
