Why won't the A/C turn on?
You did put 134a back in? But possibly not enough? There is a pressure safety switch somewhere in the system that detects pressure and opens the circuit if not enough freon. At least that is where I would start. Does the Compressor turn freely otherwise by hand? Did you get enough compressor oil into the system (new Compressors need special charge with compressor oil).
Please Help! I brought a vw golf 2.0 petrol gti, 2000 plate. when I turn ignition on it says "service now" however today whilst driving on two separate occasions, the batter light came on, power died
what are the diagnostic codes? if they are manufacturer codes they should be 5 digits, if they are generated using a non manufacturer scan tool they will be 5 digits beginning with a letter, in your case most likely P for powertrain then four numbers ex. p0121, you may also have U codes or B codes which are basically body and communication codes. Scan the codes, write em down, clear them again, and see which ones come back. The better scan tool the more info you can extract from the vehicle. Keep an eye on the check engine light, immobiliser/security lights etc. Could be a key/programming/relearn issue. Im here if you need me.
