Hi,

I have a qashqai J10 2011 petrol.

When i bought this car from a garage 2019 they said it needed aircon re charge.
When I had it tested it needed a condenser.
I got this changed for a new one and had it recharged,
During the winter I followed instructions to run it once a month. Now it is heating up, I tried to use it and no cold air.
My son is a mechanic and he fitted the new condenser but doesnt yet have aircon refill equipment.
He used a uv light and could see no sign of a leak.
Nothing came up on the diagnostic computer
He thinks it maybe a fault in the box containing the aircon control,in the engine department.
has anyone had this problem

Would seem your son needs to attempt a recharge. At least get gas gauges connected so that the low and high side pressures can be observed.
