Air con not kicking in
« on: 31 May 2017, 07:53:58 »
Hi, i was testing air con pump and it isn't kicking in. Tried low temp and eco off, plus most of other settings and no dice. When I say not kicking in, I mean compressor is not engaging. I gave the Schroeder valve a little tip with a screwdriver and seems plenty of gas pressure coming out. Also seems on temp low the air is at best warmish not cold. That was after leaving it for a while to cool.

sounds like a re-charge is due.  not sure about your method of testing the pressure - it may be illegal and anyway can you tell >30-70 psi like that?
