Default ACC

Hi

Recently I have noticed my ac temp isn't nearly as cool as before.

I have also replaced the battery as of late - could I need to recalibrate the ACC and if so - How?

1999 V70.

Thanks!

Maybe you are low on freon?

Hmm ok

How can I tell ?

A Saab friend suggest I need to 'recalibrate' the ACC after I removed the battery?


Does this hold true for the Volvo?


thanks

NO it doesn't hold true.

Does it cycle every few seconds?
I mean does the compressor kick on and off?

By cycling on and off do you mean hearing a sort of clicking?

it seems to click every 10 secs or so
