May not be the A/C SteveJ (2010 987 base, manual trans) - Thursday, 23 May, 2013, at 7:51:25 pm |
Thanks, but no. grant - Friday, 24 May, 2013, at 8:37:51 am |
All I know is there is a test to measure the temp of the air produced by the A/C... MarcW - Thursday, 23 May, 2013, at 9:19:12 pm |
The first thing is to check to see if the A/C is actually functioning Boxsterra - Thursday, 23 May, 2013, at 10:03:39 pm |
Well, now two of you have suggested this.....is it THAT common? grant - Friday, 24 May, 2013, at 12:26:52 pm |
That's a lousy test. For one thing there may not be enough humidity... MarcW - Friday, 24 May, 2013, at 3:21:16 pm |

I believe my test indicates that:
1. the air is being at least somewhat dried
2. the compressor clutch is engaging and the compressor turning
I have nto run it sufficiently to check for water draining.
Will do. Thanks to both of you
