Hey all,

I have just gotten the '85's system recharged at a trustworthy indy shop.

A/C blows cold and is working, blowing at ~50F at highway speed.

However, aux fan does not turn on because the refrigerant temp sensor never sees the refrigerant temp rise above ~125F.

(I tested the aux fan by shorting the temp switch. I also pulled the temp sensor that goes to the R/D and tested it in water. Turns on at about 125F. )

Temp Switch:

So my the R134a isn't getting over 125F after idling with the A/C on for several minutes - is this good? or Bad?

Thanks!
dd
