They purged and attempted to charge mine. That took 30mins approx but it wouldn't hold the charge so no fee.

That's why people say air con won't work if the windows open...yes it will but not v.effectively that's all.

So the mechanic was talking rubbish. The air intake slider can be in any position.

#38: Re: Got Air conditioning Re-gassed but still no cold air? Author: MrBSI, Location: What's it to you? ? ?Posted: Wed Jul 04, 2012 5:25 am ---- The car needs to go to an aircon specialist as several people have already mentioned in this thread BUT very_452001 cant be bothered.
Until someone that ACTUALLY KNOWS WHAT THERE DOING diagnosis the problem the aircon system will just stay non working.
There is only so much help you can give people BUT when they dont listen as they think they know better its just a waste of time
#39: Re: Got Air conditioning Re-gassed but still no cold air? Author: kandlbarrett, Location: SwindonPosted: Wed Jul 04, 2012 5:01 pm ---- +1.
This guy doesn't even understand the difference between voltage and potential difference. He doesn't stand a chance fixing air con.
There is a joke in there a most should spot it.

#45: Re: Got Air conditioning Re-gassed but still no cold air? Author: very_452001, Location: BirminghamPosted: Wed Jul 24, 2013 8:52 am ---- Update: I took it to a air con specialist today and he connected a pressure gauge to it and told me there's no pressure. Thats all he told me.
My AC light comes on, fuses are ok.
When I press the AC button I dont hear any sounds or see the Rev dial moving.
I can see the radiator fan spinning regardless of AC button is on or off. I did this fan test when engine is hot. Or am I suppose to check the fan is spinning when engine is cold?
Im still confused whether I have a electrical or mechanical problem? No pressure or leaks means mechanical right? Yet I have symptons of electrical problem as well.
What is the commom diagnostic problem to AC failures when it comes to 206's in general?
