Stoney871 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 That is the aircon acumulator can. I'd lay bets your aircon doesn't work. Without that can connected there will be no gas in the system. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john-luci Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 a/c button comes on but the coolness coming in doesn't become ice cold, so where would the rest of that pipe lead too any idea's thanks for your help on that part Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Does your car have front fog lights fitted or even the setting on your headlight switch? I'm thinking the wiring is foglight based. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john-luci Posted June 15, 2015 Author Share Posted June 15, 2015 yes to both (did not check the other side to see if still connected may have just been snipped instead of re connected (red bumper sprayed blue to match car) but definitely have fog light switch on lights dial) just sourced a new aircon can/pipe (£15) Thanks again any idea to where the lead in front of the timing belt may have come from and would it lead to my battery dying thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Could be a light connector or maybe external temperature sensor. Can't tell tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
