CLK240
Air Con HELP PLEASE.
Hi
I am from Australia. I just recently purchased a 2004 CLK240. Everything in it is sweet. However the a/c doesn't work. The compressor doesn't seem to be turning on. I have taken it to 2 auto electricians to have a look. The first one i said i had no gas and regassed it (problem not solved). He gave up so i went to the second. He checked all fuses and relays and scanned the computer for errors. Everything clear. So he gave up.
I have read on other threads that people have used the "rest" diagnostics feature to test for sensors, temps and freon levels. But i have the older style control panels with the dials. (not the one with the digital LCD - i think its called "Thermatic"). Is there anyway i can do the same diagnostic with my control panel?
I guess my last resort will be to bring it into a dealership. But i really dont want to get overcharged by them over something like this.
Any help would be much appreciated!
