99 1.9 air con pump - richbev
last year i had my air con serviced by vw and it worked fine. in august we had the air con blowing then suddenly there was a electric burning smell and the air con stopped working and blew the fuse. i put a new fuse in and turned on the air con which blew it straight away. the question is has my air con pump blown and what sort of job is it to repair it?? many thanks rich. ps i have checked the clutch on the pulley and it is there and in tact.

It is possible that the magnetic clutch coil on the pump is faulty.To eliminate this from the circuit ,you need to disconnect the 2-pin connector that is attached to the rear of the pump.If I recall the colours of the wires are green and brown.If the fuse still blows then the fault is elsewhere.hth

already done that sir. when the 2 pin plug is disconnected the fuse doesnt blow

Your clutch coil has shorted - time for a new one. If you're lucky you can get it off without replacing the compressor.
