I have already searched the forum for an answer to my question and came up with nothing.
My climate control unit has been fixed and the hot/cold switch functions properly. When I turn on the front A/C (push snowflake button) I do not get cold air. I was considering checking the charge but decided to see if the clutch was engaging first. It does not engage when the A/C is on. Additionally, my rear A/C compressor clutch does not engage either.
Let's start with the front A/C. Are there common reasons for the T1N sprinter front A/C clutch not engaging? From the wiring diagram it appears that a wire goes from the magic climate control box to the A/C compressor. So I will likely pull that off at the compressor and determine if I get a voltage when the A/C gets turned on. But I want to reach to others with more experience to see if there are common problems.
Seems suspicious that both compressor clutches do not engage.....almost like they are related.
Thanks in advance for advice.
Other important details: I bought the van about a 1.5 months ago and the climate control unit did not work and a multi-pin connector behind the gauge cluster was unplugged. After addressing both of these items the A/C light came on and the rear blower motor worked. I do not know the history of the van and the A/C has never worked for me, so I do not have a great benchmark for functionality.
