Check that the air extractors
are not blocked.
Repair if necessary.
Does the fault persist?
Ensure that there are no water leaks into the
passenger compartment which would
significantly increase the humidity level and
reduce the effectiveness of the demisting.
Locate the leak and repair it.
Does the fault persist?
Check that the components which were removed are connected correctly.
Check that the system operates correctly.

Change the fan assembly.
Before carrying out any work, check that the customer uses the air conditioning
correctly.
Non regulated air conditioning.
Is the fan assembly always operating?
(normal if high pressure ≥ 20 bars)
Check that the recirculation flap does not
remain in the recirculated air position.
Operate the control button
and check that the flap moves.
Does it move?
Check that the action of the
heater control
moves the flap.
Does it move?
Visually check that
the flap travel is complete.
Is it correct?
Check the coolant circuit pressures using the
XR25 or pressure gauges.
The fan assembly operates if the high
pressure ≥ 20 bars and stops if the pressure
≤15 bars.
If the pressures are correct, change
the pressure sensor, otherwise, top up
the coolant circuit.
Check that the components which were removed are connected correctly.
Check that the system operates correctly.

removal of the evaporator (refer to the
"Evaporator" section).
Remove the two heater fan assembly mounting
bolts.
Remove the heater fan assembly.
REFITTING
Refitting does not present any special points.
After refitting the heater fan assembly and the
evaporator, create a vacuum and then fill the
R134a coolant circuit using the filling equipment.
IMPORTANT
Ensure that all of the seals are positioned correct-
ly. Lubricate them with
P.A.G. SP 10 oil.
