Hi I recently bought a 2005 W169 A160 CDi.
The air con system was not working correctly so I have replaced a leaking condensor and had the system re-gassed but the compressor does not engage.
I have 12v to the compressor and there is power to the sensor at the bottom of the condensor.
Does the system need to be re-set by a dealer before it will work?, or am I right in guessing that the clutch on the compressor is faulty as well, or could it be the sensor on the condensor?
There are no fault codes showing on an OBD reader, but I do not know if these OBD's are good enough to interrogate the computer sufficiently.
Any info or advice would be appreciated before I go to the expense of purchasing another compressor.
Many thanks
Mark
