Hi,

I searched the archives and don't seem to find an answer.

The car is a '98 S70 and the system was last topped up about 2 years ago.

We had our first really warm day this year! So, the compressor was cycling every 2-3 seconds and the vent air was warm.

I topped off the system with R134 till the gauge held steady at +/- 32 PSI.

Now the compressor doesn't engage at all. What's up?

Thanks,
Bryan
