[MBZ] AC Compressor staying engaged.

2010-01-02 Thread Michael Esh
AC Compressor is staying engaged even though the temps are in low 20's  
F.  It does disengage when in economy mode or off button is pushed on  
CCU. Is this caused by a faulty switch or relay.  Any suggestions or  
trouble shooting write-ups would be appreciated.


thanks,
Mike

Could be a bad temp sensor (outside air most likely) or a bad PBCU.   
A stuck relay would run it all the time.

I would suspect the evaporator temperature switch (I don't remember  
the location in the w123 chassis, but it will be near the evaporator  
case)


It should cut out at 25F...
