Air con not working

[Hulky]

Hi my ac has decided to stop working.I have it booked in for fleck and regass at kwik fit Saturday but just want to make sure it's not something as simple as a fuse.
So can anyone tell me we're the fuse is for the ac. ?
I have looked in the vehicle manual but they don't tell you what fuse is for ac ?
Also when I have engine running and switch off economy button there is no change to engine noise or revs

Thanks John

Sorry should of done that first hotel California

That's the same fuse layout in my manual and it dose not show we're the ac fuse is ?

Yours is 2008 ?
Are there fuses behind the botlleholder (is there a botleholder ? ) in de midlle lower part of the dash under the gearstick?
Most likey the fuse for the aircon is there.

 

[Hulky]

Yes but it does not have a diogram on to identify them

Yes but it does not have a diogram on to identify them

It should be (could be ) fuse 25 in the upper part .
7,5amp

I got diffrent fuse layouts stored from diffrent build years , the above should be a 2009 upwarts so don't know if it's thesame on yours ...

Ok I will check when I get home thanks

mine is 2006, try top fuse holder no 1 (top right extreme left) 25amp or try engine compartment fuse number 3

Hi just a quick update
The ac condenser has a leak
Quoted £380 to repair as the front end needs to be striped to gain access to it.
The part is not that expensive just labour costs.
Does anyone have a detailed nohow on taking the front bumper off ? And I may try myself ?

Thanks John

@Hulky
does this help? You hav to remove front bumper to gain access to the intercoole

 

[Hulky]

Thanks johntowers that looks like it will help me

 

[Hulky]

Just another update.

I have the bumper off and condenser off.This job is not that difficult and you can save around £300
Going for new ac condenser tomorrow and hopefully job done.
