    Yeah thats basically an indication that your gas has gone, the clutch wont kick in as it stops the compressor from burning out

    A garage has suggested that a relay on the box operates the clutch on the ac ?? Just don't sans spend £20+ on a relay if it's not that. Anyone able to test a relay ??
