Title: Air con high pressure switch
Post by: Aeroman on 24 May 2011, 18:15:48

Anyone know where the air-con high pressure switch is located. I've found the low pressure one and that seems OK (after a bit of WD40 on the contacts).

Also, are there any other active components in the air-con system; like for example a shut off valve ?

I've got the usual problem:
System gassed
Clutch engages
Inlet side of compressor drops 10+ psi when the clutch engages (which should mean it is compressing OK)
But no cold air.

I read somewhere that the hot water side should be inhibited when the air-con is in use but AFAIR when it was all new I could have air-con and the heater running together - great for demisting as the air-con was just dehumidifying the air.

All help / comments welcome.
