Please help.

I have a CDX with air con that does'nt work.

The blower works.

Any one know what could be the problem?

Has probably lost all its refrigerant gas through lack of use.

If the air con is used regularly, no oil circulates in the system, the seals dry out and the gas slowly escapes.

When the gas reaches a certain low level the pressure switch prevents operation to stop damage to the compressor.

Try pressing in one of the vavles located on the air con piping under the bonnet. A quick press should result in high pressure gas escaping (watch your eyes!).

However if the gas fizzles out rather weakly the the system is low and requires a recharge.

Depending on how old it is and how much u have used the A/C i think that the gas has leaked out.
