Hello all.

 

Car is a Roomster 1.6 petrol from 2008/2009 (BTS) with Climatronic.

 

Aircon compressor won't kick in, and I get these codess:

01274 - Air Flow Flap Positioning Motor (V71) 
            000 -  - 
00792 - A/C Pressure Switch (F129) 
            000 -  - 

 

I hope you can help with finding the F129 - I can only find the G65 when looking on the car.

I've checked service manuals, wiring diagrams and all, but I cant find its location.

Any help will be much, much appreciated!

 

All the best,

Kasper

What device has generated those fault codes? I suspect it is not giving good information.

No F129 in any Roomster circuit as far as I can see, therefore it doesn't exist, G65 is doing that job instead (and better).

 

Hi, Pete.

 

I'm using a rather cheap HEX/usb-thing, so I was a bit uncertain and suspected what you just pointed out - no F129 but G65 instead.

Glad to hear I'm not blind  - and that I can stop looking for it and focus elsewhere.

Compressor won't kick in, so I'll have to figure out a way to test if clutch is getting power/data/else that tells it to engage. Right now it just seems offline/dead.

 

Thanx a million for the quick answer, Pete!

You won't find a clutch on your compressor either. Proportional solenoid valve N280 varies the displacement of the pump, axle is always spinning.

Broken wires on the way to N280 is certainly one possible failure that might explain your troubles.

Fantastic!
I'll do that tomorrow - thank you so much, Pete.
