Guest Ash Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 Pressure switch is just behind the left-hand front strut turret on an ally pipe.... why, what's the problem? Yours, J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted April 11, 2002 Author Share Posted April 11, 2002 I was checking over a friends car, the aircon is not working correctly. The diagnostics suggest a number of things including the switch. I just wanted to check all connections were sound, before going any further.

Guest Martin F Posted April 11, 2002 Share Posted April 11, 2002 A\C Amplifier is one of the boxes on top of the stereo. It's quite easy one is a small box which is the antenna relay and the other is the A\C amplifier. Look for loose plugs first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might find a leaky flexy hose or something. Problem with air-con systems is you can have a very slight leak for ages and the system will still function okay until, one day, the pressure-switch cuts out. I'm assuming the system has worked. If so, first thing to check is whether there is gas in it. Okay, maybe a connector fell off but first thing I would check is the gas. I you can't find the leak then get the air-con guy to stick some dye in the system. Good luck, J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Wall Posted April 12, 2002 Author Share Posted April 12, 2002 It is a leaky valve, the one by the rad, very, very, very, slow leak. (Edited by Phil Wall at 7:31 am on April 14, 2002) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ash Posted April 13, 2002 Share Posted April 13, 2002 That's what happens. Something to do with "gas law" haven't a clue exactly. But it's like when you have a spray-can and pressure is fairly constant until right at the end where suddenly pressure drops off. It's the same with air-con.
