Hi guys, I have had my GPX for a while now, and the air con doesn't work, I have had it regassed. The place I used said there were no leaks, just wondering if anyone knows if it might be something else?

the compressor is at front of engine on drivers side run off same belt as your powersteering (your AC pipes run into this)
check for power by checking at the AC fuse or relay under the hood with a multimeter

Open up you bonnet, go to passenger side, look at firewall close to the battery should be two black hoses about 20mm in diameter, that run into the firewall....... Are there???
