A/c Blows

I have a 95 C280. My a/c works for a minute then stops. Are there codes to show the problem. I have seen temp sensors mentioned. I have also seen some threads that show a dyno mode, do I have one in this old of MB. My gas gauge doesn't always work either. Works fine with a full tank. Is there a sensor or could it be as simple as needing a new gas cap? I have had this car for 7 years with no problems except a wiring harnes and the normal brake pad replacement, now she's showing her age! Please help!

If your not a member of www.club202.com yet than become one. These cars are getting older and older and arent talked about on this sight as much. Do a search for a/c codes. and it will come up with the step by step instructions for the older style w202 climate control model like the one in your car. Here is the link good luck! http://www.club202.com/forums/showth...ht=a%2Fc+codes

Thanks, I'll check it out. I had my a/c fixed today at the local MB dealer. It was the condenser temp sensor. A 28.00 part and I got charged 300.00. I've really enjoyed some of these sites and imput given to help fix problems and finding out about comem problems and fixes. I didn't know that I was able to check codes. I have a full size chevy van, a 25th anniversary mustang convert that I'm putting in a 500+ HP motor, my 280 and a 2007 toyota rav 4. All the threads have really helped me out. Thanks for your help and telling me about the w202 club.
