My previous message from this morning doesn’t seem to have been published….

Thank you for your replies, I had a look a few days ago at Griffith’s website but didn’t see their help section. Very helpful.

What I thought was the temperature switch is actually the pressure switch, and it seems either to be inoperative or the pressure is too low.

By bypassing the sensor switch, I managed to get the AC working, only for a few minutes as I didn’t want to damage the compressor in case I don’t have enough fluid in the system.

This afternoon, I carried on my searches and came to the conclusion that the AC was not installed when the car was produced ( which after all my discoveries makes sense), which is very strange because it appears in the options codes on the sticker in my warranty booklet ( I know that these could contain mistakes in these times)

I don’t really know what to do, having an AC is obviously a bonus (although it is only used a few days a year in our area) and at the same time, I’d like to keep it as much original as it should be.

What annoys me the most is that in order to install this aftermarket AC they had to cut out the fuel tank support holder for the front condenser and in case I’d decide to get rid of the AC, I’d have to get this fixed. Considering the car is in almost perfect body condition, I’m a bit reluctant to go for what I suppose is quite costly repair.

What do you think is the best?
