I am picking my car up this evening after the shop is done putting the finishing touches on my new paint job. Yippy!!! Obviously, I am going to want to show her off. Hence, my dilemma... Prior to dropping her off I learned that my A/C was not working properly - only blowing hot air. And since it 90 degrees outside, I need help. I had asked some questions on this forum last month, http://www.bimmer.info/forum/showthr...light=a%2Fcand and based on the responses the first thing I decided to do was have the A/C system recharged. Consequently, I found out that my auxiliary fan was not working. So, I bought the replacement ballast resistor for the aux. fan and picked up a new aux. fan switch socket (figured I'd replace it while I was doing A/C maintenance). I have plans to replace them this weekend. Anyway, the mechanic that did the recharge just informed me that it did not solve the problem. So, he took a peek at the compressor and noticed that the clutches were not engaging. The mechanic suggested that it could possibly be an electric problem. But wasn't sure... He mentioned that the A/C fuse was good, and that he did not know if there was anything else electrically that could be preventing the clutches from working. He indicated that it could possibly be related to the A/C switch mounted in the dash??? Any advise would be really appreciated.
