2002 C5 Air con fault

Post by redeye49 »

I have just taken my 2002 2.2Hdi C5 into the citroen workshop to ave the climate control andair con issue investigated and after being plugged into the diagnostics machine it reported that all switches and controle units were working as they should be but the diagnostics did find a fault with the compressor saying that the compressor was not responding to the controls in other words the clutch was not engaging with the compressor and according to the technician it could be a broken lead or a complete compressor failure but he was not sure what the actual problem was until he gets into taking the pannels off from under the car and starts checking the wiring but he told me it would get expensive either way because it is not going to be a quick job to investigate!, does anyone out there know of any common issues that i can check out for myself before i tempt the fate of ny bank account and put the car into the workshop ?
I would be grateful for any info on this issue
