chuffer Posted October 15, 2011 Share Posted October 15, 2011 Can anyone hel?, the aircon on my 2005 (later shape) 1.8 diesel Focus stopped working one day, just to explain I have worked on refrigeration for a number of years, I checked the gas (R134A) and found it was full, I checked the fuse and the operation of the relay again all ok. I suspected the compressor clutch was faulty as it didn't click in like it used to after a few seconds and I found one on eBay at a reasonable cost , so bought it and fitted it..... and you guessed it, still no aircon! I am looking for a diagram to check the pressure switch (4 pins) as this seems to be the next most likely thing, can anyone point me in the right direction for this info' or tell me which contacts should be made or open when the system is charged..... Thanks in advance... Dave PS the p/switch looks like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250906948569 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jay1981 Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I would put a 12 volt feed to the compressor clutch and see if the compressor starts, if it does then the fault could well be the pressure switch. You say you have checked the relay and fuses, then it could be a break in wire that controls the compressor clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
