Air con not working

Hi

 

i need some help and advice please. 

The air con in my car does not seem to be working. The fans are throwing air into the car ok but it isn't cold and it don't matter how low I go on the temperature it gets not colder. 

 

So so I had a look under the bonnet and tried turning the air con on and off to see if the fan or compressor clicked in and nothing seems to happen. 

Could it need just a re gas or do you think there's a bigger issue. I'll get it booked in but just wanted some suggestions. 

The air con is always on in the car so I can't see it being perished gaskets. And it's regularly serviced on schedule by ford. It's a 2012 1.6tdci titanium x. 

 

Thanks

adrian.

    Don't let Halfrauds or Kwik Fit any where near your car.

    I had mine done last week at Formula One who do it for £40 with a money off voucher which is easily found.easily found. Took one hour to do if done properly.

    Frankly I'd rather drink my own bodily fluids than trust either of those 2 to do anything on my car :whip:
