ozi Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 hi newbie here, i have a problem with my air con on my 51 plate 1.9 TDi zetec, it doesnt seem to switch on at all, the yellew light on the AC button when pressed comes on and thats about it, whilest changing the oil the other day i founed that a U bend pipe was snaped so i have fixed it with some leak-fix paste and fibre glass, which i raped around the pipe, it seems to have done the job of holding the pipe in place now i need to find out if the loss of gas in the system prevents the air con coming on or do i have a relay that isnt working?....i hope someone out there can help me out on this one.

seatkid Posted September 23, 2008 Report Posted September 23, 2008 Doubt if your repair will hold. The A/C operates at high pressure. Quote
ozi Posted September 23, 2008 Author Report Posted September 23, 2008 Doubt if your repair will hold. The A/C operates at high pressure.thanks for that but on the packaging of leakfix it did mention that for high pressured pipes, use combination of paste and fibre glass mesh. Quote

Goofygolfer Posted September 24, 2008 Report Posted September 24, 2008 dont think any one would be willing to regas with such a repair. But there is no harm in asking. Quote
