PUMA Airconditioning problem
Hi there

I have no aircondtioning in my 110 TDCI 2011. It was good untill I stock the truck for some months due to a gearbox clutch changed
The switch has the light on
The relay is working
Fuse is ok
But the clutch do not engaged
Gaz sound when I push on the valve
I look at the connector on the compressor to see if there is voltage when the incab switch is on : nothing
What should be the voltage : 12 V ?

Any advice will be very appreciate as the summer is already here
Thanks, cheers


May 2025 be a better year

It perhaps needs a re-gas. ____\We|Will|Win/___

Did you check the pressure with a cheap Harborfreight AC gauge set? Oh no it's Europe, where you need an expert for everything and "right to repair" is just a popular catch phrase.

No compressor engagement typically means the gas pressure has dropped too low, caused by a leak in the system

You can buy it in Europe too but it’s also illegal to refill fluorinated gas without proper qualifications in this country. WARNING.

Well at least I know where New Caledonia is now.......

Local LeClerc does a refill offer a couple of times a year, €45 and an hours wait, job done!

Most UK a/c gas is no longer fluorinated, and the DIY type canisters certainly aren't.
