Renault Clio III - Air Con - clio2017

I have just had my air con re-gassed however the air con is not coming on now at all - the light comes on but pump doesn't kick in. Any ideas?

The outside temperature reading has broken and is reading -5 degress. Could this be affecting it? Or is it related to the regas?

Thanks in advance

Depends what system is fitted to the car. An incorrect outside temp reading could prevent the system operating as most a/c systems will shut down below +3 degrees.How old is the car and does it have climate control?
