What could be the cause of this? It is likely the lack of A/C is related to the radiator fan operating on full constantly (probably a fail-safe feature for the A/C system).


Fan started operating on full blast after coolant was added to the system and cap was no tightening letting air into the system.

Seems to be a faulty condenser pressure sensor.

If you added coolant and forgot to tighten the cap.... most likely it boiled out and air got in the system. You need to bleed the system and erase the codes in engine control module. You will have a code for coolant temp sensor malfunction. If not, then your ECU might be the problem. But proper diagnostics will be required.

Thank you for this. Do you know if air in the system would cut off the A/C also?
