Thx Wilton & Dan -
I guess it can work great one day and be low the next? I thought it
would be a gradual degradation.... Evidently not ;-)
had it topped off in April - andin the previous May - so I was hoping a
slow leak would allow a yearly refill. evidently not. ;-)
So the next question is where to find the leak and can I fix it
myself.... hopefully the parts inside the dash are not the problem. Had
a defective Schraeder valve a couple of years ago - was hoping that was
the only problem...
Thanks again --

Subject: [MBZ] AC Compressor not coming On
Howdy -
1991 300D 2.5T. We keep the ACC on /Auto /assuggested and the AC
worked fine until this afternoon when she was coming home from work.
The AC worked great yesterday on her way home and this morning it was
in the 40s and 50s so it wasn't really needed - then today it failed
to cool. When I checked the Compressor I found it was not coming on
with the AC switch. Checked and replaced #7 Fuse with no affect.
Does the Compressor have a High/low Pressure Shut-off? We had it
topped off in April and it has been blowing cold since.
I can see some electrical connections below the PS Pump on the top of
the Compressor but have no idea how/which ones to test. There are
either 3 or 4 wires attached to the Compressor - which one should be
Hot?
Should I just throw up my hands and call the Indy or pray for cool
weather? I hope this isn't one of those thousand $$ problems!
;-)
