Mak Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Hi, I’m experiencing this slightly unusual problem with my car. Aircon doesn’t seem to function properly i.e only blows hot air. Dealer suggested it might be the compressor. Got it checked by aircon specialist and they confirmed its not the compressor or even the aircon system. ECU also works fine. They think the problem lies within electrics somewhere. This is not their specialist skill. Dealer now estimated 5 hours labour to run initial diagnostics. seems outrageous…. Wondering if anyone else has come across this type of problem with their zeds ? Or have any suggestions or ideas to get it fixed? Your help is much appreciated!

SunGodRA Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Maybe the climate control sensor has gone, or a fault temp dial? Is the aircon light on on the right hand dial? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Yes the light comes on when the aircon button is pressed, however the compressor doesn;t kick in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebized Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Might just need to be re-gassed at a guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mak Posted June 10, 2010 Author Share Posted June 10, 2010 Do the dials come off? Is this module behind the dash panel? its not a re-gassing issue as diagnostics confirmed. any other clues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lincolnbaggie Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 Do the dials come off? Is this module behind the dash panel? its not a re-gassing issue as diagnostics confirmed. any other clues? White air-con module is behind the heater controls under the stereo. Maybe check all the connectors are in correctly? Take out the gear lever surround and the centre fascia (where the stereo and cubby hole are) and you'll see it. There's a guide somewhere....

R35LEE Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 Mak, did you get this sorted? I have ac amp unit and about 7/8 ac pumps in stock (worst case). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
