    The air-conditioning in my 2015 Holden Captiva has stopped working

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Captiva Holden Captiva Advice Holden Captiva 2015

    The outside temperature gauge in my 2015 Holden Captiva was showing high numbers, then the air-con stopped working. Was this because of the weather conditions?

    Air-conditioning systems are designed with various interlocks to prevent them being damaged by extreme conditions. For instance, if the refrigerant gas in the system starts to become depleted, it will also get hotter and hotter the harder you work the system. Eventually, the temperature of the system becomes too high and the interlock will step in and shut the air-conditioning down to prevent it becoming permanently damaged.

    You need to take the car to an air-conditioning specialist who will have the tools and equipment to safely test the system to determine the problem. Then whatever is wrong can be fixed according to strict environmental regulations, which is why air-conditioning is not a DIY job.
