Ford Sierra 1990
I know its not really needed at the moment but I was trying to sort out my air-con. Basically the compressor only works intermittently. I took it to a air-con place and they checked the level of stuff and said that it was 95% sure that's its OK and he went on to say that there is some sort of thermostat not working somewhere causing the compressor to cut in and out. When I got home I connected a wire from the battery to the pump (with the engine running) and it all worked perfect (bloody cold inside the car) So my guess is that the guy was right and there is something thermostatic stopping it working. any ideas? I was thinking of connecting the pump directly to the air-con switch via a relay? I see in the Haynes bible there is a thermostat switch type thingy screwed onto a black plastic thingy were all the air-con/heater gubbings are under were the window wipers are, do they normally give trouble?
