hi folks, 52,000 on 2010 , 68 F degrees outside and no AC inside,just warm air...
bummer 1st time this year to turn on..
has anyone else had any problems with the AC?
thanks
still loving the car every day..

Hmmm...
I know that you've probably covered the basics, but is the AC light on and is the temperature at the coldest setting.
Also, do you live in a climate that would cause corrosion or have salted roads?

When you turn on the A/C, do you hear the compressor come on? You should hear a faint clicking noise and then a bit of a buzzing. If the A/C compressor is not coming on when you push the A/C button, you should check the fuse/relay for the A/C which should be in the engine bay fuse box.
You can also check the refrigerant pressure and refill it yourself with a can of refrigerant with a gauge and hose attached to it.

Sweet! Good to know it was a simple fix.
Good job on the diagnosis Kuro!

Coincidentally, today was the first day I used my A/C in several months as I had a few people with me for a long drive for work.
Interestingly, using the A/C caused my LED DRLs to flicker and even go out, giving me further proof that the flickering is related to the system voltage. I need to get around to grounding the capacitors correctly. Kind of going off topic, I know, but goes to show how much electrical power the A/C takes.

The fan speed was not increased from before the A/C was on. The difference was the A/C compressor being turned on.~tc~ wrote:Actually,the AC takes almost no power - it's the blower fan
