Hi Guys, looking for any advice or help, after changing the resistor in the passenger side and fan speed 1,2,3 were again working took car to Kwik Fit to get it regassed, alas i was told it would not accept gas, asked why was told its probably the a/c compressor, any ideas guys, it was blowing out a small amount of coolish air, so i was a bit peeved to find out i still dont have a/c, its a focus 2002 , again thanks in advance

 

Most likely, personally I wouldn't let Kwik fit do anything other than re gas it, I would take it to a specialist.

When you say will not accept gas, do you mean it was leaking it, as I had the same problem when i regassed mine, I left it though as there isn't really a way to tell where it's leaking from, whereas, professionals pressure test the systems etc and have UV die etc, so the location of the leak can be detected.

It could well be the compressor, but you don't want to hear "Maybe", again a specialist probably has these parts off the shelf so can do an accurate diagnostics and replace it if necessary.
