Well, after five years, maybe some of you have explanation for this problem.
I have same problem, AC not working, removed old sensor, inspected it - it was full of oil and chip on the sensor was burned, that was also the cause of losing refrigerant over the years.
I bought new sensor from Aliexpress (99% things I bought from there was functional), after that I checked with VCDS and got same G65 pressure sensor short to ground, after that i started to have suspicions about that chinese sensor and bought new one in big european spare parts shop, the outcome is the same. Next thing I did was buying new climatronic(used but like new, instead of old and worn) because I was thinking that maybe the input on pcb was dead because of burned sensor.
I have measured all the lines, sensor is powered with 12V, even I did direct connections from sensor in my hand to the climatronic unit with new wires but still everything is the same. It is started to be frustrating and I dont have a clue yet.
