Re: Car Air Conditioning Problem
If you have a feed to the coil then as Ian says there could be a fualt with the air gap - I think Volvo's amongst others suffered with that.
To test the coil measure it for resistance. I think the one on our Astra was around 150 ohms. You'd need to check it when it is getting a feed but not cutiing in.
