I have just used the auto diagnostic system check on my air con its flashing code 23 anyone know what that is its not getting very cold even when set on lowest i am guessing it may need a re gas. Is there anywhere to find out what th codes mean or any suggestions on how to check if re gas is required
Re: Air con test on my xkR
My list of codes states:
23 Refrigerant pressure switch malfunction Harness / connector fault or Switch open / short circuit
Refer to PDU23 Refrigerant pressure low refrigerant charge *Leak from damaged pipe or joint
Rectify as required and recharge system
PDU is the obsolete (?) Dealer level Jaguar Portable Diagnostic Unit so probably best to forget that bit! The relevant pressure switch is in the line passing across the bottom of the radiator.
The description seems a bit unclear in that it could also be interpreted to give a low charge as an alternative cause of Code 23. There is no other code specifically for a low charge.
Hope that's of some help anyway.

I will take a look but not seen any leaks to date to be fair its a convertible so not used the air con since i have had it so could have been faulty for a long time i have run the self diagnostic on the air con and it flagged that code i guess i could recharge and see if it corrects or shows a leak
