air conditioning - not kicking in
Having difficulty getting the air conditioner to kick in. seems if I play around with the settings and set the temperature around 21, eventually it kicks in. Control shows lights on Auto, A/C and re-circulate and vents set to driver (I've been reading some of the posts). Not sure if a switch is sticking and finally kicks in with all if the on-offs?
Any suggestions? Thanks!

Or YOU are right at the threshold of low Pressure in the system and that is why is not kicking in? Had a similar issue recently, have a small leak in the condenser. Dealer recharged the system and all is good for now, next time I will try one of the ac recharge sprays with stop leak. Good luck

I did the charge kit originally and was surprised at the time that the system wasn't low. I topped it up, but still had the same issue. figured I had bigger problems and would have to get it looked at, then one morning (couple of weeks later) the system turned on very first thing and it was very cold (I had to turn up the temp). since then, I have intermittent success getting it to turn on (over weeks). so I don't think it's a leak. just seems even though the lights turn on, a mechanic switch\solenoid is not kicking on?
