I'm a happy bunny
Well, I guessed my car realised I wasn't in a happy mood...
Went out to the car, engaged aircon diagnostics - first check, "20" is reported. Hooray! Second check, bit of clicking and whirring later - "30" is reported. Hooray again! I then go through the motions of checking the sensor temps and everything appears normal - 22 degrees outside temp, 37 degrees inside the car.
I then come out of diagnostics, put the temperature down to 18 degrees and stick AUTO on ..... A/C light comes on, fans go up to 4 and freezing cold air comes out. Almost seemed too good to be true. I get out the car and within about a minute the fan at the front of the radiator comes on.
I left it like this for about 5 minutes just to savour the moment before turning the whole aircon unit off.
Final test before I got too excited. I switched the fans on, still 18 degrees but this time no "A/C". Sure enough I just got a blast of fan cooled air. But wait, surely this is too good to be true?.... I press "A/C" and a few seconds later, the fans get louder, the engine revs go lower and Im greeted by a blast of ice cold air.
So - a clean bill of health. Didn't even have to check the fusebox either! I got out the car, patted the dashboard as if to say "thanks" and came back inside.
I'm in a thoroughly happy mood now
