  In the manual for my car it says it must be 4 C or higher - haven't been able to get the air con to turn on in the past few days. It makes a click sound when I push the button, but the light doesn't come on and neither does the A/C.

• Vauxhall Vectra C (2002 - 2008) - 2005 2.2 SRi - Air con failure 22 Sep 2008 (Forum)
  2005 Vectra 2.2 sri. My air con was working perfectly, then just stopped. The light comes on on the dash when selected and the fan is working but the air temp does not go cold. A friend in a Ford garage carried out a gas check and said there was no leak on the system (his machine checks for leaks then recharges the gas) he repressurised the system but the air con is still not working.

• Honda Civic UK (2001 - 2005) - 2001 SE - Air Con not working - Extended Warranty? 15 Apr 2008 (Forum)
  Hi, I have a 2001 '51' Civic Sport SE and the air con has stopped working. I've owned the car for 4 months and had it re-gassed when I bought it as the air con wasn't blowing very cold. It worked for a while but gradually stopped. The garage that re-gassed it for me put some dye in the air con system to see if there was a leak somewhere.
