    Hi there,

    I was driving along and noticed the car getting warm, look at the aircon pod and all the lights were out. No outside temp etc. Nothing. Hazard lights still work.

    Is there a fuse for that pod? Everything else in the car works just nothing on the left pod!!! I pulled it out and re sat the plugs in the back but that didn't help.

    At the same time the car had a little hesitation like fuel starve but I don't think its related.

    Cheers
    Chris

    Hi. Sounds like a dead pod, fuse, loose connector or broken wire.

    Just closing this off.

    Pulled all plugs off the back on the pod. Gave the loom a wiggle and pluged it all back in. All back on and working.

    Strange electrical gremlin :confused:

    Anyways its working again :)

    Died again :mad:

    I noticed the illumination on the aircon button and window button still work.

    When to pod dies does the whole think break, wipers/aircon/rear wiper all stop working or do individual parts stop working at a time?

    Time to get the multimeter out :(

    Its bullshit. I couldnt get the air coming out of the vents so I borrowed my brothers pod and hooked it up. All the vents worked perfectly. I put his pod back, and then his vents stopped working. No idea why...

    Sounds like the same problem I had in my TT. Turned out to be be the ignition switch might be the same with yours
