Hi All, i dont seem to be able to turn on my a/c. if i press the a/c button on the dash the light does not illuminate. i checked all fuses they are fine, does the relay affect this light or just the compressor??? i have a 99 T impreza turbo 2000 uk model. all belts and tensioners are fine.... any advice is much appreciated. thankyou

Think you have to turn the fan on,turn it to cold,then press the A/C button (haven't used mine for sometime though so not too sure)

if you turn the fan on & have it on coldest setting put the aircon on. Open bonnet - if the compressor is not spinning up & the light aint working, it will need a gas re-fill.
Had the same issue on mine, i new i bought the car with a knackered aircon rad, so got another rad, fitted it & bought 2 canisters of 134A ezee chill refrigerant off ebay & filled it up. Now works perfect.

thanks guys i will try this, slight whining noise from compressor so maybe it is out of gas. just thought the light might have worked regardless of the unit. cheers again
